Hello world!
We apologize for the delays and the downtime. Unfortunately being all-volunteer means our volunteers sometimes come and go as demands require. Also it doesn’t help when your server gets hacked. But hey, we’re back in business, and ready to dish out some information! Stay tuned, and keep an eye on the site as we rebuild it. Details on Mysterium 2012 are coming shortly.
We hope everyone had fun attending Mysterium 2011 (in person or otherwise)! If you took pictures/video and have uploaded it, please post a link in the comments on this post.
Thanks for all the support, and we hope to see you next year!

Have a question for Rand Miller. Check out this new post for details on how to get it answered!
There has been some confusion about Mysterium 2011, so to make it official, here’s the official word: while it is true that the Mysterium Committee originally decided not to directly organize an event this year, a group of fans formed the Mysterium’nee Committee to organize this year’s Mysterium in Boston, Massachusetts. That event is now the official Mysterium for 2011. We fully support their efforts (some of us are even helping to organize it), we wish them well and we encourage you to go!

Our logo has been chosen! Congratulations to Paul Veloz for creating it. It will be displayed prominently on the back of our t-shirts, which are now available for pre-order as well. You can check out the logo and t-shirt pricing here.
Not exciting enough? How about this: The dA Myst Fanclub has graciously offered to sponsor a weekend registration and a day pass and we will be giving these out in contest form. All you have to do is reply to this announcement post in the next 48 hours to enter.

Are you ready for it? Here it comes…
Registration is open! The hotel is standing by! Go go go!
*cough* That is to say, check out our latest post for information on registration, hotel bookings, hats, and more.
To the honor of our tubers,
The Mysterium Committee
Greetings my starchy friends!
As you may have noticed, there has been a dearth of Mysterium news ’round these parts. A bunch of us noticed it too, and our digging revealed hints that Mysterium might not be happening. But don’t panic! We decided to take it upon ourselves to plan a Mysterium for this year, full of all your favorite activities*. We are the Mysterium’nee committee, and we have setup shop over at http://mysterium.zibland.com/. With the blessings** of folks from your normal committee, we will be running Mysterium this year. We have hacked been given permission to post some news here on the main Mysterium site, but be sure to visit http://mysterium.zibland.com/ for the most up-to-date news.
That link, again, is http://mysterium.zibland.com/.
Mysterium will be held in Boston from August 5-7 this year. So mark your calendars and get ready, because hotel bookings and registration will open shortly! And remember, never trust a potato with repressed memories***.

*plus or minus all your favorite activities

Bidding for Mysterium 2011 location will be closing on Aug 31!
As promised last weekend, we’d like to announce the commencement of the (brief) 2011 location bidding process. From the short 2011 Location panel in Minneapolis this year, we left with the impression that there was support for Mysterium in cities that we hadn’t considered during our internal discussions. It has also become apparent to us that having a local expert on the city that we’re planning Mysterium in is a vital part of making informed decisions regarding neighborhoods, the quality of hotels, and availability of things such as local attractions and food options.
For these reasons, we’ve decided to delay the decision regarding the location of Mysterium 2011 by a few weeks to accomplish both of these.
If you think your North American EST city is right for Mysterium 2011, tell us why. Submit a bid by August 31st and help us bring Mysterium 2011 to your city!
