I remember them having to shut down the store at C3 on Saturday because there were too many people in line. The people who only had badges for that day went ballistic but all GenCon did was tell them to come back the next day. I'm sure that's a big reason why this time the store is running 24 hours a day.

Not only that, but they practically got shutdown Saturday morning when they tried to leave everyone outside in the freezing cold rain. The local authorities essentially told them to get everyone inside or they'd shut it all down. I don't know when that line started (it was the line for GL), but it was insane when I saw it at 4:30am (ran down streets and around several buildings).
It was an awesome sight, but it was also completely crazy.
