For those of us who did not meet the eligibility and if (and this is a big if) we get an extra room will there be a thread for us to post or should be just post in the housing parking and transport section individually?

There will be a place for you to post.

Thank you for being willing to offer your room to the FoCC community!

Thanks for letting me know.

And as for offering a room if I get an extra, the FoCC Community has helped me so much with planning, making new friends and everything else that I think its only right that they can get first chance.

Thank you for setting all this up.  Through this forum, I have been able to join buying groups to get SDCC passes and be passed a Gaslamp hotel my last SDCC.  Thank you all.

Adding my thanks to everyone involved in the Hotel Exchange process. This is the first time I've joined and though I hope I won't need to use it, I'm getting a little "newbie" rush after all these years.  ;D

 For me, after more than 10 years, I still get a little rush when I do stuff like this...  ;D

Guess I didn’t make the cut.   Good luck to everyone who did.  I’ll keep my fingers crossed for the lottery.

Pegleg, please stick around the site. There is so much more than the hotel exchange. If you check out the other things FoCC has to offer, then you are likely to qualify next year. We help each other with all kinds of things here, and we’d love to see you in other threads.

I echo this.

I found this forum after I'd already gotten tickets our first year and the forum was great just in terms of PLANNING. How do I line up? Where do I go? How do I make the best use of my time?

When we finally got to SDCC I had people asking me about stuff and I knew the answers because I had spent so much time here!

The FoCC  SDCC 2019 Hotel Exchange section of the forum is now open. We strongly recommend that if you are interested in participating in the Hotel Exchange that you check out this area immediately. There is a form that needs to be filled out before the actual lottery takes place. For more details, please see the SDCC 2019 Hotel Exchange section of the forums.

Please note that the Hotel Exchange section is a private area of the forum that is only visible to eligible members. Eligibility has already been determined and was made based on members' activity levels. If you are not able to see the private area, then you did not meet the criteria. The list of eligible members will not be changed, and no more people will be added to the area for this year. To be a part of the Hotel Exchange next year, please remain on the forum and contribute, to become an active member.

It is not in the nature of FoCC to exclude people. The forums are open to all and we encourage new members to join. However, over the past few years we have noticed a trend of people coming to the forum only for the hotel exchange and this caused some serious security concerns, since there is a lot of private information involved in these exchanges. Our priority (and the reason the Hotel Exchange was created in the first place) is to give back to the active forum members who contribute to the community as a whole. We strongly encourage new members to stick around and become involved in everything else the forum has to offer. This site is a great resource of information for all things Comic Con, and as SDCC approaches there will be many threads about a wide variety of topics, from programming and offsites to cosplay and packing. You do not have to be a part of the Hotel Exchange to be a part of FoCC.

We understand that some may be disappointed to not be a part of the Hotel Exchange. We hope that you will stick around and be a part of the exchange with us next year.
Thank you so much for setting this up! Advanced preparation this year is a brilliant idea!

Hi - Don't think I made it either. I have given and gotten hotels here so hopefully all will work out during the lottery and I will have a hotel to contribute. Good luck all.

This is a reminder for those who are eligible to go to the Hotel Exchange section and fill out your information ASAP. You will not be able to do sso after the lottery takes place.

For what it's worth, I think it's good to keep in mind that-- unlike the mad rush for badges-- the mad rush for hotel rooms is always going to get you SOMEthing.  Maybe it's not the exact one you want, but at least you don't have to worry about walking away empty-handed.  (And if you're one of the seasoned Hall H vets, then the irony is that you'll likely be camping out on the ground for a night anyhow, despite having paid for a perfectly good room, lol.)
