Once you drop, your refund will be processed—dropping is final (can’t un-drop; re-register = waitlist). If you don’t see your refund in a couple business days, email us. After the window closes: expect an email this weekend/early next week w/ a Google Form for side events + proxy preferences.
Friendly reminder: the ticket refund window ends Fri, Jan 16 @ 11:59PM ET. We expected more drops based on feedback, so we want to make sure folks know this option is still on the table.
