Registration and Event Reminders

Posted on by

Hello again, everyone. It’s officially summer, and Mysterium is fast approaching! We’ve got a couple of timely reminders for you today.

First, the last day for online registration and t-shirt pre-orders is July 4th. That’s only two weeks away! If you plan to attend, please register online so that we can get an accurate estimate of attendance numbers. If you plan on buying a Mysterium t-shirt, we strongly encourage you to do so either by pre-ordering one to pick up at the convention, or by using our Square Market store to buy one that can be shipped to you. Order for shirts through our Square store will also close after July 4th, so get your orders in now!

Second, the deadline for event submissions is June 30th. If you’ll be at Mysterium and you have an idea for a panel discussion, presentation, display, or activity that you’re interested in running, please let us know! Head over to http://www.mysterium.net/events, be sure to read the event guidelines, and fill out the form at the bottom of the page.

We’re so excited about this year’s Mysterium, and we can’t wait to see you all in Spokane. Shorah b’shemtee!

Small Schedule Change

Posted on by

Shorah Folks!
(I bet you never thought you hear official news from me again :D)

A small change has been made to the Mysterium schedule today. Heek and social time has been moved to be from now until the Skype call with Robyn at 3pm (which hasn’t changed). What Would Atrus Build will now take place once the Robyn Q&A is over. We’ll have the Justin.tv stream back up for the Robyn call, and we might get it running during WWAB too. That’s over here: http://www.justin.tv/mysteriumcon

See you at 3!

Guidebook

This year we’re pleased to offer an electronic version of our schedule as a Guidebook guide. You can download the app for Android or iPhone. To access our guide, you can either select “Scan” within the app to scan the QR code below, or just search for “Mysterium”. If you have a different mobile device, you can also access the guide by visiting m.guidebook.com and searching for “Mysterium”.

With the Guidebook app, we can push updates to you if there is a schedule change, and you can set up notifications for events or activities that you want to make sure you don’t miss. We will be pushing additional information about the Rochester area into our Guidebook guide soon, and you’ll always have the latest details even if you get the guide now.

We only have 200 downloads available for our 2013 guide, so if you aren’t attending this year, please refrain from downloading the guide so that attendees can have access to it. Thank you.

We look forward to seeing y’all there!

Special Event: Robyn Miller Q&A

Posted on by

Shorah Myst fans!

The Mysterium Committee is thrilled to announce that Robyn Miller will be Skyping in to Mysterium on August 3rd to answer some questions. We’re accepting question submissions from the community. Keep in mind that there are time constraints, so not every question will be asked, and questions that are very similar may be combined.

Please submit up to 5 questions to committee@mysterium.net . We know that people like to brainstorm questions with each other on the forum threads and blog post comments, but it’s easier for us to create the final list and not overlook anything if you send them directly to the committee. Please submit your questions by midnight Eastern time Sunday, July 28th so that we can give Robyn an early look at them.
