When you buy the book, they give you a number. They line up folks according to those numbers for signatures. If you would, take a look at on page 2 of this thread. Emgirl, Lany, Chiro, Alilisa and myself have all pre-ordered and received numbers.
Actually, I am glad it won't be like that last signing in this area. Lots of people arrived very early that day to check into the store and several of the staff I talked to said you could just show up. Well, it turns out they were giving out wrist bands showing your order of arrival. Some people had been there, like me, for hours but ended up being closer to the end for signatures because of the lack of information on the bookstore's part. I would think they were unprepared excepting the fact that they had plenty of books for all. That just tells me whoever was in charge didn't manage things correctly.

Yeah, that same thing happened to me. The nice thing about that Oakbrook Borders though (may it rest in peace soon) was that there was plenty of room...it's far larger than Anderson's.
I had kept my eye on the Oakbrook Borders webpage to see if there'd be a signing for this release. Once this was announced I put two and two together and figured Borders would not be long for this world.
I didn't get around to pre-ordering so I'm sure if I did it now I'd get a crazy high number and be in line all night. Can't do that with two kids very easily. I think they will be surprised with how many people Jim draws. I went to a Rick Reilly signing there last year and it didn't draw too many.
