LIMITED QUANTITIES! Chat with Thom Zahler himself, 1-on-1, and get a customized sketch card drawn just for you – just like in a real vendor hall!
Click here to purchase your ticket!
(starting at 9am CST on Friday, 11/6)
– Only one sketch card will be drawn per session
– Only one ticket is required per session, regardless of the number of people that will be in the room with you on your end. Note that only the purchaser will be allowed to connect to a session – your friends/family/etc can not use the link to join your session with you.
– Sessions will be 10 minutes long to make sure that everyone gets a chance to talk to Thom
– IMPORTANT – in almost all cases, the sketch card sessions must conclude when they are scheduled to end. They will not be oversold, but if several people arrive later in the session, the possibility exists that the session may need to end before all late arrivals can be seen. So, we strongly suggest that you arrive as early as you are able.
– There are no refunds for missed sessions
Here’s how it will work:
1. The purchaser will receive an email with a Zoom link. Zoom is a video chat service that is compatible with nearly all computers and mobile devices. You will not need to create an account with Zoom, but for the best experience, you should install the current version of the Zoom Client for Meetings or Zoom Mobile App from https://zoom.us/download. Please note that we are utilizing Zoom Breakout Rooms and that this feature is not compatible with Chromebooks/Chrome OS devices.
2. You will click the link to join the line for the session. You may join to get “in line” at any time – at the start of the session, members present will be accepted in the order their tickets were purchased. Those that join afterward will be accepted in roughly the order in which they arrive.
3. When it is your turn, you will first verify your purchase with a staffer, who will check to make sure your camera and microphone are working and will answer any questions you have.
4. You will then get to video chat directly with Thom 1-on-1! During your chat, Thom will draw a sketch on a card just for you. (Note that the session will be monitored by our staff – please see the conduct rules below.)
5. After the weekend is over, all the sketch cards will be delivered to the convention. We will then send your card to you along with any other purchases made from the con store.
That’s it! Please note that the shipping of this item will be a little longer than normal.
CONDUCT RULES
– Our standard Code of Conduct and Anti-Harassment Policy will apply to these sessions
– Keep your sessions Safe for Kids. If something wouldn’t be OK to say, show, or do in a Kindergarten Classroom, don’t do it in the session
– Your session will be monitored by our staff. A violation of our rules can and will result in the immediate termination of the session, up to a permanent ban from all future Ponyville Ciderfest and Whinny City events.
