- In a SubSpace transmission stardate 12/30/92, Steven_H._Waltman.Henr801C stated:

- SC> I realized after I mailed off for Richfield tickets that I forgot to
- SC> put what
- SC> dates and how many tickets I wanted on the outside of my envelope. I
- SC> know
- SC> however that I had the money order, 3x5 card, and SASE inside correct.
- SC> Am I S.O.L. anyway? Has anybody ever gotten rejected for this reason?
-
- Not only have people been rejected for that reason, but GDTS has sent people
- around to torture and maim those who forget to put the dates/no. of tickets on
- the outside of their envelopes.
-
- No, seriously. Didn't mean to sound insensitive....

-
- Really, I've not heard anything one way or the other. I've gotten my tickets OK
- through mail order even though a couple of times my tickets came back with one
- of those little itemized checklists with my mistakes marked. Once, I put down
- the return address of GDTS on my return envelope and got scolded for it (they
- stamp the address themselves), although I got my taper seats anyway.
-
- I think my next cartoon for Relix will be something like a parody of mail order
- instructions, something about including the date, place, number of tickets, next
- of kin, name of youngest male child on order envelope, and requiring people
- ordering tickets to fly to San Rafael and dance naked in front of the GDTS
- office with their money order and return envelope stapled to their genitalia,
- with anyone neglecting to follow any one of these directions not only not
- receiving their tickets, but made subject to kidnaping, imprisonment, torture
- and execution.
