Hey! Our hosting service hasn't been renewed yet (plan to do it soon), so email might temporarily be down.
The server is only usable for the con weekend + 1 week, so you'll have to wait until this year's server goes up in a few months
Othercon 2025 is now over!
Special thanks to everyone who attended, and to all of our volunteers. It was an amazing weekend! The server's member count peaked at 667 members, and we managed to raise $1085 USD for charity!

We've been behind on sending out reminders this year. This led to some not knowing that forms were even open, or when they closed. To try and make up for this, all forms will remain open until the end of June.
We're especially looking for people with timezones outside the US!

All acceptance emails for panelists and artists have been sent out! Please check your spam folders.
If you applied and did not get an email, please reach out to admin@othercon.org. This means you applied with an invalid email, and we could not reach you
If you are an artist or panelist and haven't heard from us yet, we will try to reach out to you between today and tomorrow.
www.othercon.org is back online, and attendee registration for 2024 is now open! Othercon is a 3-day virtual event for members of the alterhuman community.

To ease pressure on staff and allow more time for moderating, movies are now handled by panelists (this includes the Theater Thursday movies). Want to stream a movie? Now you can use the panelist form!
And lastly, volunteer staff apps are now closed and will be reviewed in the coming weeks!
"What about dealers?"
Dealers have always been the least popular role with only about 1-2 applicants per year. This year, that has been folded into the artist role. So if you wanted to apply as a dealer, now you can use the artist form for that.
