Below is our Registration FAQ. If you still have further questions, please .
What's this about ID and 'Unverified' badges??
All con attendees must show proof of identity to pick up their badge. Any con attendee who can not or will not show proof of age (born before that day's date in 1989) will be given a striped badge that denies access to all adult areas/events of the convention.
The only valid proofs of age are government issued photo IDs listing a date of birth. Any other photo ID (such as a school ASB card) can be used as a proof of identity for picking up a pre-reg'd badge in lieu of government issued ID but the badge will be striped.
What forms of payment do you accept?
We accept checks or money orders for payment by mail, and Visa, Mastercard or American Express for credit card payments. Please do not send cash if registering by postal mail. Please use the secure online form for paying by credit card - DO NOT send credit card information by regular email. Checks and money orders should be made out to Further Confusion.
I sent in my registration form and a check but I haven't heard anything yet; did you receive it?
Pre-registrations are confirmed after receipt of payment, by email. If you didn't include an email address, we couldn't send you a confirmation. If your email address is different from the one you listed on your registration form, or has changed recently, the email may have bounced. You can always
to check on your registration. Please be sure to include a valid email address if you want a response.
But I don't have email. How can I get a confirmation?
If you don't have email and wish to receive confirmation via postal mail, please include a self-addressed stamped envelope with your registration form(s) and check/money order. We will confirm your registration(s) when they are received and processed.
I can't remember if I pre-registered or not. How can I find out?
Feel free to
to see if you're registered. Please include your real name as well as your fan name, and your address so we can make sure we're looking at the correct entry.
I've changed my fan name. How do I get it changed on my badge?
Just send email to
requesting the change. Please include your real name as well as the original fan name, since that's what's currently in the database. Badge name changes will be accepted until Jan. 1, 2007. After that, you'll have to have your badge reprinted at the registration desk at the convention.
I registered earlier but I want to upgrade to be a Sponsor or Patron. What do I need to do?
Just fill out an online registration form and indicate in the comments that this is a upgrade for an existing pre-registration, and the additional payment amount. To upgrade from an attending membership to a Patron, the additional payment would be $155 (assuming you originally paid $45 for the attending membership). To upgrade to Sponsor, the additional payment would be $55 (again, with the same assumption).
I pre-registered but I can't attend. Can I get a refund?
No, but you can transfer your membership to another person, or you can consider your membership a donation to Further Confusion. To transfer your membership to another person, please send us a letter with your name, fan name, address and email, along with the real name, fan name (if any), address, and email address of the person you're selling or giving your membership to. This letter can be by email or postal mail. We will send a confirmation to both you and the recipient of your membership.
What ages are permitted to attend? Can I bring my children?
All ages can attend, but this is a large convention and not specifically geared for very small children. All pregistered attendees must provide a valid, government-issued photo ID when picking up their badges, and those who can not prove their non-minor status (age 18 or older) will have their marks marked as such, and will not be allowed into any "adult only" areas. "Kit" (Kid In Tow) memberships for ages 0-12 are free. Kits must be accompanied by a registered adult at all times. As always, if you have any questions, please
and we'll do our best to assist.
Do you need any dedicated Gophers or staff?
Yes, we do. Please
if you're curious about volunteering for Further Confusion. Help is needed in all areas, not just Registration. Indicate which areas you're interested in helping out with, and the volunteers staff will help you get in touch with the appropriate groups.
If you're interested in joining the staff, the best way to contact the folks who are looking for staff members is to attend one of the monthly open meetings, held at the DoubleTree Hotel in San Jose.
What kind of benefits/goodies do I get for each membership level?
