I'm a little torn.It's no problem for me to do the hotel sale from my job, and the timing is right around lunch time, but my challenge is reminding myself. I can get distracted...Especially around lunch time.However, I have the option to work from home. Since that's out of the norm for my routine, it will be a lot easier to remember.What to do,....what to do???
I'm scared this year for hotels....I normally have a back up hotel already set in place before Hotelmaggedden, but this year I have nothing. And we have NEVER got anything from this. I have only gotten hotels from by back ups, or from the gracious people of FOCCI.
It's borderline incompetent at best and actively cruel at worst, and I for one am deeply disappointed in CCI as an organization.
Maybe I'm giving them too much credit, but it mostly seems incompetent to me. Although, they MUST have known the date for weeks if not months. I have no idea why they wouldn't at least put up the hotel list sooner.Also, as always, at least some of the blame lies with OnPeak. In what world does it make ANY SENSE AT ALL to hold one of the biggest, messiest hotel sales of the year ON THE SAME DAY many people are checking into their hotels at another major event you ALSO run? And OnPeak must have had input on the date.
The answer is simple.... they don't give a hoot about the atendees!
Also, they tend not to get any hotel complaints at the official SDCC Talkback. By then, most of the complaints are about lines for Hall H, and such.I've always found that odd, but I think it's because the furor about the hotel sale really dies down by the time everyone actually gets to the convention (and has their hotel).
