Looking for roommates for Sakura-con
« on: October 10, 2005, 10:01:27 pm »
I posted this in another thread but I figured I needed to have it here where it's easy to get to.

I have a room reserved at the Paramount (about a block or two from the convention) for Thursday (23rd) through Monday (27th). I'm looking to get at least three other people in the room. It'll be $135 per person for all four nights between four people. I think 6 is probably the most I'd want to take for the room so if I can get up to that 6 then it'll be down to $90 per person.

Email me through here or contact me on AIM or MSN if you're interested.

If you can give me a ride. I'll talk it over with my mom (I'm over 18 I just work for her) and I might be able to go.

I'm actually going to be taking the train up and back unless I find people here who can take me up with them.

just as an aside... technically most hotels do not allow over 4 people in a normal room.  A suite will often allow for more, but it's usually hotel policy (and the law in many states) when it comes to occupancy.

Just a note... the hotel can ask you to vacate or at least lower the occupancy if you've got to many people in the room.

Yeah that's what I figured, which was why I without a doubt won't allow over 6 people. Thanks for the heads up anyways..definitely don't want to get booted out <.<

I should call up the Paramount and ask if they'd allow 5 or 6 people in the room.

I have a room at the Grand Hyatt regency. I need roomates myself to help pay for it. I don't want very many and I would like to have them there for the entire weekend. thursday friday and saturday night. This hotel is the best one for the con. so yeah I want only those that can be there the entire weekend. the price per night is dependent on how many people commit to the room.
Sticks and stones may break my bones but whips and chains excite me...so tie me up and throw me down and show me that you like me...

Too bad I am not going to Sakuracon this year. I'd have been glad to room with someone from Florence. :D

Though, if my financial situation changes, I might make it.

For now though, its a no go.

I haven't yet confirmed whether I'm going to Sakura Con next year, but if my financial situation allows it and I'm not in Japan by then, I probably will go. :) Can I suggest joining you if I end up pre-regging? And if I'm welcome, will you need a set-in-concrete commitment?

Thanks in advance. :)

Honestly I really don't need to have it in concrete until around February.

Also forgot to post that for now I have only 2 other spots open.

Hi again. This late reply is being made because I  finally have gotten a job (albeit temporary), and so I'll be getting a paycheck soon. Once I do, I plan to preregister for Sakura Con. I could now, but I've dipped too far into my college fund already; I'd rather wait for last week's paycheck if only on principle.

Anyway, do you still have spots open? Pretty please? ^_^; I'll bring cookies...

:( Not good... you could volunteer as staff to get the staff discount.  But I'm not sure whether it's possible to get on their lists now.

I got on staff last minute last year, and volunteered my 8 hours, but in the end it turned out I'd preregged at the end of the previous year's con so I didn't have to attempt to get the staff discount after all.
