East 2016 Room Shares - trying out a new policy, so please read the OP
We are going to try out a new policy for this PAX and see how it goes. I am also trying this out for PAX South 2016. While strict enforcement of the one post per person rule has cut down heavily on the reposting to get on the front page, it has also caused some problems with posts that need modified late in the game but are stuck on an old page.
There is still a one post per person policy, but I will be starting to cull posts from the thread that have been struck out or marked as no longer valid. I will try to do this as necessary, but there will not be a hard schedule for this purpose. This will mean that there should not be a wall of inactive posts to sift through in order to find active ones. Also it means that if someone had a post that was culled from early on, they can freely re-post it later if shit went south. If you abuse this, your ability to post in this thread will be revoked entirely.
----
Post here if you are looking to share your room, or looking for a room to share. Please keep your posts up to date!
YOU MAY NOT POST HERE TO TRADE ROOM SPACE FOR BADGES.
You get ONE post in this thread per UNIQUE room share situation. Do not re-post your offer/request. Re-posts will be deleted.
If you need to modify your post and cannot edit it yourself (accounts below a certain participation threashold), PM me and I will make the edit for you. Not having permission to edit is not a valid excuse for re-posting.
If you *really* think you have a good reason to post for a second time, PM me first.
This is not a discussion thread; ONLY POSTS IN THE DESCRIBED FORMATS BELOW WILL BE ALLOWED.

Looking for a room for my boyfriend and I. We're both 25 and have done room shares in the past - this is my 6th PAX, his 2nd. We have an air mattress if beds are an issue. Ideally looking to share with 1-2 (3 max) people. Closer the better, Seaport is probably preferable? Just need walking distance. We're clean and considerate people and are content in a corner. We're Nintendo enthusiasts equipped with 3DSes (Smashhhh?) and we're also open to playing board/card game type things like CAH! Nonsmokers, but alcohol is good.
Please email if you have anything available! Thanks!

A little about me: 29/M. This is my 3rd PAX (2012, 2015). I am helping out at a fairly large game booth.
I'm pretty chill. I plan on drinking at least 1 of the nights (not too heavy though as I don't have the money to be spending a ton of money on drinks) but I don't smoke or do any drugs. I'm meeting a lot of friends at the convention as I know a lot of people that are driving in locally (I live outside the city) and I know some developers as well.

Basically, if someone has booked a room and no longer needs it (at all), I would be greatly obliged if s/he would be willing to transfer said reservation to my name (and credit card, of course) rather than just cancelling outright.
If anyone is willing and able to provide this Christmas gift in April, please shoot me an email.

Additional Notes/Requests: So here's the thing. I booked a room but now the person who was helping me pay for it. Whose card we were putting the reservation on can no longer go.

Additional Notes: Prefer a hotel close to PAX but places nearby that allow easy commutes may interest me. Will be taking bus departing around 5/6PM from NYC to Boston right after work on Thursday and plan to leave on a later bus Sunday evening. If you are an Ingress Resistance player that's a plus too! Will spend some time after convention floor closes for UPV/UPC/Missions. Room shared last year but I'm not sure if they're doing it again this year. I'm neat, clean, have good hygiene, and do not do drugs nor smoke (prefer same). I drink alcohol, usually just beers with meals and probably won't in the room, but might buy beer from local breweries to take back home.
Thank you.
