Are all members of Wired guaranteed entrance to every meet and greet?
Is there a m&g after every show?
Is there an additional fee?
Does having a m&g pass affect seating arrangements with friends/family?
Is is guaranteed you'll meet each band member?
What amount of time is allowed to meet with the band?

I'm going to answer your questions as the situation stands now. As Wired gets more and more members, the answers to these questions may change. But for now:
Yes, all members of Wired are guaranteed entrance to every Wired Meet & Greet they pre-register for on the Wired website. There are 50-60 slots open for each show's M&G. I've yet to see these pre-registration slots fill up, but there is always a chance. However many slots are still open on show day determines how many Wired packages may be sold at that show. We keep the Wired Meet & Greets to 50-60 people, so that everyone has a chance to meet each Third Day member.
No, there is not a Wired Meet & Greet at every show. Third Day can only have Wired Meet & Greets at shows on their own tours. This means there are no M&G's at festival shows or benefits or other special shows. But there are Wired Meet & Greet for the Third Day tour shows, such as the Music Builds Tour and the fall Live Tour.
There is no additional fee. The Meet & Greet privilege is part of your Wired package.
No, your M&G pass has nothing to do with your seating arrangement. However, only those with passes will be able to attend the Wired Meet & Greet. If there are others with you, they will have to wait for you outside the building, as the Meet & Greets usually run a little long and the security people are usually trying to get everyone else to leave the building. If you have the family membership, you will be allowed to bring your spouse and children with you, as long as you have reserved space for them, and gotten their pass sticker(s) at the Wired table.
There is no guarantee you will meet each member of the band. That is up to you. Generally, each band member will stand in a different area of the room. A line forms to speak to each one. It is up to you to manage your time so that you have a chance to speak to all four members. Usually, there is plenty of time. Please remember not to take too much time with any of the band members. If you do, it takes away from someone else's time with them, and takes away from your time with another member. When you meet a band member, you may talk, have him sign something, and have your picture taken. It's pretty open. Just don't hand him your phone to talk to someone who couldn't make it to the show. That takes time away from someone who is actually there with him. (Plus, it's uncomfortable for the band member to talk to someone they don't know over the phone.)
Usually, there is ample time to make your way around the room to talk to each of the four guys. When time is up, a line will form to have your picture taken with all four of the guys at once.
And that's what a Wired Meet & Greet is like. :)
