Can someone explain to me the advantage of the early bird hotel sale? There are no downtown hotels, there is a minimum of days you have to book, and the booking is non-refundable.Really...I'm just curious.
Some people get nothing from the regular hotel lottery and then there's a scramble to get any room at all. With the early bird you are guaranteed a room and don't have to stress about finding a place to stay.
Since I'm pro and am good to go, I got Town and Country through Early Bird. Would I prefer Downtown? Heck yes. But T&C is fine what with being right on the trolley route, and I don't have to fret about #hotelpocalypse.
Any rumored dates for 2018 so I can start worrying about a hotel for it too?
There was some discussion earlier about who has to have member ID's and badges because it affects rooms being held by CCI. I found it fascinating to discover that even "guests" have to have member ID's and badges. At least it appears that way. I remember Nathan Fillion auctioning off his badge to raise funds for Operation Smiles at Nerd HQ. [member=842]TardisMom[/member], if I remember correctly, won the auction and could verify.
Sorry, I'm no help. At Nerd HQ I won a tee signed by Nathan and Zach.
Town and Country is a fine place. Been there the last two years. It's right across the street from the Mission Valley Mall trolley stop, so it's not that big a deal to get to and from there. There's a shuttle but I find it's easier to just take the trolley (you can get a pass for the entirety of the con for $20 or so).
