They should already be using the WER system for Magic, so it shouldn't be hard for them to sign up each month for Encounters and Expeditions. The process takes minutes, so they can do it even today without much work. Even if you missed this window, you can do a couple of things. First and foremost, you can go to the <a href="http://wizards.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/2256/kw/convention%20support" target="_blank">Support page</a> to explain your situation, give them the name of your store, etc. They should approve you, which provides a link to the files you need.For Encounters: You can buy the adventure as early as tomorrow (I think it is a really good adventure) and start running it. Once the packet arrives to the store you will have actual certificates. They just allow trading, so it isn't critical. You can of course run the adventure anywhere, with certificate support only through a store.For Expeditions: You will need to wait for the download link from support or the store registering, but that shouldn't take too long. You can run this at any public location. One note: after conventions admins sometimes find that an adventure needs a few tweaks. Because of that, I would simply expect some of the adventures to be live after Gen Con and the rest shortly thereafter. In the meantime: Running the Starter Set is a great option. You can run this anywhere. The store would have needed to order the previous kit to have the certs for play, but they are again not critical. The cooler part of the kits, for me, are the welcome packets for Factions. We received them at our store last night and it was very cool for us. Nothing essential, but very cool.</blockquote>
