How do you do that?
When you complete the form you can request more than one room. You need to fill in names of occupants, but you can fill in anything, really, which isn't that much of a stretch since lots of people decide on roommates closer to the con. I've had luck doing this with MGH. I get two rooms for my own travel party, plus there are a couple buying group members who never seem to get in quickly and travel alone, and I've gotten rooms for them.I'm still hoping they'll move into the 2000s and let us book hotels through our member ID in real time rather than the crapshoot they currently use.

From your lips to CCI's ears. We know it's possible given that other conventions do it, and it would even be good for CCI too - less churn and probably less staffing expense to deal with problems. The only ones it wouldn't be good for is OnPeak, and as they've never seemed to care whether or not there was any service in their customer service, I won't be sad to see them gone (or at least their part of the process greatly reduced).
And they don't deserve for it to be good for them anymore. It'd come down to the fastest fingers again which I miss a little negl.
I was really bad at this game my first year. Took me 4 minutes to submit my hotel request and i thought that was "fast." Then I got better! Then they changed it...
I got to 1 minute or less and then they did it this way and now my whole group gets washed even though, every year, we've had someone get in INSTANTLY!
Same! We got super good at it and got our top choice for two years. We've washed out every single year since then. We either get one of our 5th/6th choices, something not on our list, or nothing at all.
They swear it's based on time of entry, yet when you ask, they have no clue how it happened but can't help you...
Are we sure that timing matters? I thought in 2016 that they were processed in random order? Did that change back to timing?
