 +<fs smaller>**OPEN RECORDS CLOSED TO CRITICS** Responding to continued calls for accountability, OWC Studios head Alec Peters says only Axanar supporters get to examine the ill-fated fan film’s financial records as part of Axacon — but only for two hours. Meanwhile, critics will continue to be shut out, despite offers to pay for an independent audit. Also, read the advice Peters has gotten about how to silence critics. {{:axamonitor-ico.gif?nolink|}} [[axacon_records|Read more »]] (Updated 10/30/18) </fs>

 +<wrap lo>**TICKETS SLASHED** Faced with Axanar fans' ticket price complaints, sluggish sales and thousands of dollars in losses, OWC Studios head Alec Peters announced a 40-percent cut in Axacon's cost of entry in November, the brunt of which hurts proceeds intended for the event's host, SphinxCon. Meanwhile, Peters can't commit to whether the bridge set he's spending thousands more to complete in time for the con will even appear in Axanar Lite. {{:axamonitor-ico.gif?nolink|}} [[axacon schedule|Read more »]] (Updated 9/26/18)</wrap>

Fans hoping to see the two short films comprising what’s left of Axanar may not have much longer to wait, if Peters' Comic-Con 2019 target is to be believed: But his proposed shooting schedule comes with a number of caveats. {{:axamonitor-ico.gif?nolink|}} [[august 2018 update|Read more »]] (Filed 8/21/18)</wrap>
