[QUOTE="pedr, post: 5299397, member: 33464"] It's not really the store that needs to be signed up. As you've noticed, you need to be a WPN organiser with the store listed as a venue attached to your account. You're going about this the right way, but something's gone wrong somewhere along the line and I get the feeling that quite a few of the Customer Service reps don't really understand what they need to do with WPN issues. I'd go to [url]http://www.wizards.com/Company/WPN/Join.aspx[/url] (though it sounds like you've filled in that form, if you haven't, do it again). Then, as you're in the US, try contacting the WPN rep for your region. If you look at this thread: [url=http://community.wizards.com/go/thread/view/75874/22400265/DCIWPNWER_FAQ]WPN FAQ[/url] and expand the 'How to contact Wizards' section you'll see extension numbers. Choose the right one and see if that gets things moving more quickly. Alternatively, there's no reason that you have to be the official organiser even if you're doing the GMing etc. If the store regularly runs Magic events, ask the store's Magic Tournament Organiser to order and report the Encounters events on your behalf. If you (or he) get stuck, come to the WotC boards - the DCI area (where the above thread lives) is good, as are the Encounters forums in the D&D group ([url=http://community.wizards.com/dungeonsanddragons]D&D group[/url]) and there's also good advice to be found in the RPGA group: [url=http://community.wizards.com/go/forum/viewcategory/75854/RPGA]RPGA forums[/url] -- in fact, I'd strongly recommend the D&D group forums as there are lots of stores providing commentary on what's working for them and for seasons 1 and 2 the author's been a regular as well. Good luck! Oh, and I'd get this sorted out asap - there's no listed date for the close of sanctioning for season 3 of Encounters in North America, but I expect it will be reasonably soon, and possibly before the start of the season on 22nd September!
