    Why does it let you buy 6 of everything when the limit is 4?

    P.S. not going this year. I like keeping my skills up in case I decide to go back.

    If you're desired hotel isn't showing, just select the PAX dates. They have a weird thing about only booking within the show dates and emailing them if you need days outside of the show ones.

    So apparently most of the hotels are only available during the event dates, and I guess at least the Hyatt was only available fri-mon. Ugh...

    Yep. Had the Sheraton locked in but had to call to extend my stay. They didn't have the other days available at the Sheraton or Grand Hyatt so now I'm waitlisted for two of the days before PAX at the Hyatt Regency since that one had the most flexibility.

    I suspect a change that was not rolled out to us?
    Makes next year easier. Me and my friends won't need two groups watching and hoping

    Nope. A lot of stuff didn't even show up unless you saw the note on the side that said they kept everything to "event dates," and even then Sheraton was gone and the Hyatt was only Fri-Mon

    Sheraton wasn't showing up for me at 11:50. Guess it's good I booked months ago, but I would've liked to have paid the convention rate.

  • havok978havok978 Baltimore, MdRegistered User regular
    Welp, I grabbed the Crowne Plaza at least. Looks like another year of camping the site for a Sheraton reservation...

    Then why did it let me book Sheraton for Thursday and I could have done Wednesday if i wanted?

    The limit this year is 6. They just fixed the text saying 4. (And tweeted about it.)
    And I assume they can't make it so if you by 6 4-days, you can't buy anything else, so everything is just 6 and you have to pay attention.

    LMAO. Four days are $8 dollars cheaper? Eight. Dollars. That's almost enough to cover one of the $12 "service" fees that have only existed since ReedPop took over! Monday is still as expensive as all other days even though it's a shorter day and they had to launch a "contest" last year to get people to buy Monday... Clearly learning lessons.

    Grand Hyatt drove me insane - kept saying that rooms were available but returned nothing and didn't work.

    Maybe you have the golden touch. But only like three hotels showed up for me until I switched over to the "event dates" like the little note on the side said, and the Sheraton and Hyatt weren't there.

    I had 4 different devices on queue :') I just refreshed on the last one I queued up on and 4 days still available! Got my separate day badges and booked the Olive 8. I never saw the Sheraton on the list, but Olive 8 is closer to the Annex entrance so happy. Also, the hotel site held up fine, knock on wood they transfer the booking correctly. Happy Pax, everyone!

    It's wildly inconsistent for me right now. Sometimes it'll show Thurs-Mon as available, click on the hotel and suddenly it's not available and you get redirected to look for something else.

    I'm pretty sure the small gap in cost is due to complaints in previous years about 4 individual day badges costing so much more than weekend badges.

    Well that was more harrowing than usual. Thankfully finally got a Sheraton reservation so I could cancel the backup one at the Hilton. Sheraton was cheaper too, in addition to being closer.

  • DracilDracil Registered User regular
    I'm doing Olive 8 since Grand Hyatt didn't have Day 0. Also Olive 8 was like the board game area last year and I sorta feel like doing a bit more of that this year.
