That's pretty much what I'm planning.

Fri Sat Sun
$219 $239 $219 = $677/9 = $75/person.

I was entering in nine adults because it didn't seem to matter when I did trial and error with 3-9 people, but the rates go down when it's only two adults. I vaguely remember discussion about this last time around. We just have to make sure to refrain from doing stupid shit and we'll be fine.

The other person I was talking about confirmed tonight, making the group I'm attending with a quintet, so Brad can switch to the adult room to even things out. I'm taking Kelly into account with Eligos as well.

The kiddie/some grown-ups room (7):

Seed is not coming

Eligos · February 4th, 2010, 10:56 AM

I'll ask Kelly if she wants to stay in the kids' room. Her boyfriend is coming too, so they'd have to stick together.

vihris-gari · February 4th, 2010, 12:02 PM

Probably best if they get their own place since there would otherwise be a shitload of people in the kiddie room

Half the forum just heaved a sigh of bitter disappointment.

cookiecutter · February 4th, 2010, 01:08 PM

I thought the same thing

V.V.V.V.V. · February 4th, 2010, 03:00 PM

I don't really get why, tbh.

Addo_Of_Nex · February 4th, 2010, 03:41 PM

Because none of the awkward, sexually frustrated adolescent metalheads have a chance to court someone with a vagina now.

Eligos · February 4th, 2010, 09:44 PM

I totally set it up that way too

bwa ha ha ha ha

V.V.V.V.V. · February 4th, 2010, 10:05 PM

Master_Yoda77 · February 5th, 2010, 01:23 AM

My heart just sank.

Eligos · February 6th, 2010, 07:35 PM

She and her boyfriend won't be rooming with us.

nm they took it back. damn straight.

Hey Addo, what's the story on how many guys will be splitting your room on Thursday? I want to make sure we're still on for that so I can plan for only having to book Fri-Sun in my room.

That's too bad, I was hoping to drop by and see how he'd doing.

Oh and what's the deal with the guy Alex and his friend that came last year?

V.V.V.V.V. · February 9th, 2010, 12:01 PM

Alex?

It will be 5 of us, so with you and Cyth we can split the room 7 ways. The 2 bed queen suite is $144 for Thursday night, so going that route would be best for me.

Grant, did the final cost of all three nights deviate from the estimate on the site at all when you booked last year? I'm trying to remember from when we booked last year but I'm getting nothing. I was planning on PMing everyone today or tomorrow for a final amount but want to make sure absolutely everything is in order first.

vihris-gari · February 9th, 2010, 05:06 PM

My memory is foggy, but I have no recollection of the final cost differing from the site's estimate. Given my Jewish heritage I would assume that I would have picked up on something like that had it occurred, so I'm guessing no.

Oh, there may have been a small security deposit involved ($50? $100?) but that's the only 'hidden cost' I can think of.

Addo_Of_Nex · February 9th, 2010, 05:45 PM

All right, just making sure.

I'll send out PMs to the two UMers staying in the room tonight and book the room/return give a final amount after I hear back from both of them.

I'll leave it up to Eligos and mutantllama to decide if they want a separate bedroom suite or the regular two bed suite. The difference would be about 10-20 dollars when all is said and done, and I don't remember what has been done the past two years. I think it'll be fairly inconsequential given the fact that it's the quiet room.

Grant: While I'm at it, should I book the hotel for Thursday night? The same thing from above applies, I don't really mind spending a couple extra dollars on the separate bedroom if it makes others comfortable, but I don't have a preference (people from my group don't either, because I'll tell them not to).

vihris-gari · February 9th, 2010, 07:21 PM

We've had a suite with a separate bedroom for the past two years, and it doesn't seem necessary, but I don't know what the single-room suite looks like (i.e. if it's a lot less spacious) so ignorance will probably lead me to get the two-room suite again unless I get a lot of complaints from somebody in my group. I'm interested to see the single-room one, so if you're already planning to go with it that's fine with me.
