I hope this is the right place to ask this...
This year Acen falls on my 18th birthday, but because of leapyear it lands on sunday instead of saturday. I really wanted to go to some of the 18+ panels though and I was wondering if it were possible for me to do so at all.

If your ID says you're not 18...you're not 18 
But if you wanted to go to a panel that started at midnight Saturday...!

What kind of ID is acceptable? Do u only allow state ID or drivers license...or do u also accept school IDs?

A school ID card is acceptable for picking up your badge I believe.
For an 18+ panel you would need something that has your DOB on it. Otherwise, how would we know your age?

if your school id has a DOB on it i don"t think its a problem. i am not a staffer so don't quote my saying it as the rule, but as long as it has a picture and a DOB i believe it's good.
げんきですか？

An ID will also come in handy because of the curfew laws. If a LEO wants some sort of ID from you and you look young, not having one won't work in your favor probably.,

So I have a quick question about this. I looked up the curfew law in Illinois as saying
Quote
It is unlawful for a person less than 17 years of age to be present at or upon any public assembly, building, place, street or highway at the following times unless accompanied and supervised by a parent, legal guardian, or other responsible companion at least 18 years of age approved by a parent or legal guardian(...)
So would that mean if I am 17 years old but I'm walking around the convention after hours with my friend who is 18 (whom my parents approve of, haha), that would be okay?
