A big thanks goes out to all our supporters who made a pledge and SAVED SOGEN CON!

If you made a pledge of at least $40 and your pledge went through, you are now registered, several of the pledged have a hiccup at amazon, so check your email and your account balances to make sure your pledge was completed.

For those who couldn't pledge, you can still register! Spread the word! details below.

When you purchase a membership, referred to on this page as "badge", you are buying a membership in the non profit group Otaku Incorporated. This entitles you to unlimited access to the members only event, SOGEN CON. Memberships may be purchased in advance for $45 or at the door for $50. A one day membership may be purchased for $20 on the day of admission.

$45- Standard Reg- Includes badge, and all the rights and privileges contained therein.
Prereg is now closed!

$85 Artist Alley Combo- Includes 1 standard badge and 1 8 foot table space in artist ally. Specific tables are not assigned, purchasing a table does not grantee a specific table, only that a table will be available to you in the designated artist ally area.
Prereg is now closed!

$100 Premium Reg-
Premium members will have special hours of access to the dealer room, and reserved seating in the first row of main programming and a meet and greet with the guests that will only be open to staff and premium registration holders.

I have a question.
I made my pledge at kickstarter to cover registration for all my friends and an art table.
Whom can I tell the breakdown?

I've got a confirmation from kickstarter, but it seems like covering just one person.

All pledges from kickstarter will be contacted requesting a breakdown of how they want their pledge applied. We know that several people made larger pledges to help out their friends who couldn't pledge on their own and we want to make sure that everyone who gave support to receive their due!

Great to hear. Any word on hotel rooms this year? Is there going to be a special Sogen discount, or do we just need to get a room on our own?

I just got a room of my own.. got a few roomies planned, but no word on if it's 100% sure they're going to show up..

Best bet is to call the Sioux Falls Sheraton directly at 605-331-0100 and ask for the Sogen Con rate, they should be able to get you hooked up

Some of my friends were wondering, when does the registration for Sogen Con end?

Are we going to get any thing that proves we bought that kickstart registration??

torra · « **Reply #12 on:** July 07, 2011, 03:16:35 PM »

So I have a question. Last year the price for artist alley was not only cheaper but it included 2 badges instead of 1 with the table. Why is this? That's a pretty steep table price for such a small con.

Eiri Yuki [Sexta Espada] · « **Reply #13 on:** July 07, 2011, 03:31:04 PM »

uhm, my roomie deleted his email from the kickstarter thing, he wanted me to ask if you could resend it? he just wants to use his pledge to register.

Snoogins · « **Reply #14 on:** July 07, 2011, 06:45:07 PM »

so i got the email from kickstarter, and when i tried to fill out the form, i keep getting an error message, so just in case I need to confirm with anyone, I wanted my pledge to go to registration, so I just wanna make sure that I am registered for the convention

Anyone seeking to reserve a hotel room with the convention hotel may do so using the following link:

How long will pre-registration be open on the first? My dad gets paid that day and its the only day I'd be able to preregister haha.

Ichigo · « **Reply #17 on:** July 16, 2011, 08:17:51 AM »

Hmm are we supposed to fill out the email from kickstarter to reg for the badge?

Yes

Eiri Yuki [Sexta Espada] · « **Reply #19 on:** August 04, 2011, 08:28:11 PM »

so if the email isn't filled out, you don't get your badge? because I can't really afford to buy another pass at the door, and since my mom's card was charged for two passes, if one of them doesn't come through because of not filling out an email with a dead link, she's gonna be more pissed off then I will be >>;

and that's pretty pissed. I think she'd ask for a refund if both registrations didn't go through.

Off topic: Despite what it says on the website, Toadhill Shops (the Minnesota kimono ladies) will NOT be able to attend this year. My truck broke down (again!) and I have no money to get it fixed. Sorry !

jhawknh · « **Reply #21 on:** August 05, 2011, 11:00:28 AM »

I am sorry to hear that. I wish you the best of luck with getting you truck fixed. I will try to get you removed from the dealers list today.

Dawnius · « **Reply #22 on:** August 05, 2011, 12:02:31 PM »

I will be sad not to see the lovely kimono ladies, especially since I was thinking of picking up some accessories! Oh well, best of luck fixing that truck and hopefully we'll see you next year.
