Did anyone not list kids on form and have an issue at the hotel?  Also, if you select 2 people 2 twin - have you got 2 beds in the past.  I have a 10 year old and 15 year old so definitely need 2 beds or pull out sofa.

Has anyone gotten 2 beds by putting in the entry 2 people 2 beds at hotels like Bayfront, MMM, Hyatt? Or is better to do three people to make sure you get 2 beds?

Good luck to everyone.   I'm getting more and more nervous.   I appreciate all of the suggestions.   Hopefully we get in.   We'll know tomorrow and then if we do get in, it's the wait for the email showing if we got a room.

Pretty sure you don’t have to have a badge to reserve a room, but you do need a Comic-Con memberid.

Thank you so much! I went ahead and registed mine tonight! Just to be on the safe side! i've never saw anywhere in the FAQs where you had to have already registered before booking, but i don't want any drama from OnPeak and CCI! Im just going to register mi madre by May 1st and call it a day!

 I can’t remember if I asked this or not, but has anyone who is a volunteer and not an attendee but still has also a member ID gotten the link for the hotel lottery tomorrow?

Yes. I am a volunteer and have NO paid badge or otherwise and I got the email.

I counted $10-40...but yes, some of those increases really look painful especially since the lower-priced DT hotels seemed to be the ones with the biggest increases (i.e. Doubletree, Courtyard, Hampton). But it looks like most of the closest, already high ones went up "only" $13.

Interesting, I am a staff department volunteer and I didn’t get the email I wonder if it’s just the random or depends on the department.🤔🤔🤔🤔

Did you check your spam/trash folder? Or maybe check your member ID isn't opted out of emails

Has anyone made a correlation between what time you get in the waiting room and what time you’re chosen to check out? Wondering if getting to the waiting room at 8am sharp makes a difference.

Nothing like a day and a half notice for Hotelpocalypse! Panicked group texting confirming details and strategies at 1am is totally normal behavior.

I've been shut out for hotels every single year except my very first year at SDCC (2010) but it's been the same for Returning & Open Registration. This year I was the 1st person in our group that got in for both & fingers crossed that luck continues for tomorrow!

Good luck to all!

Does anyone know, can I use the untracked link on both my iPad and my laptop to open  multiple sessions of the queue?

Man, you know I never sleep before a successful SDCC venture (badges, hotels, parking, etc.) so I'm afraid to sleep in case it is the sacrifice of my sleep to the SDCC gods that give me my luck.

I might just stay up late tonight, the nerves ARE setting in...
