Whew, I got a Marriott room. If there's anybody on this site who doesn't already know, you can reserve ONLINE (go to the dragoncon link, it's not the same as the regular Marriott site). That's much quicker than waiting for a telephone reservation person...I was on hold the whole time I was doing it online, and I finished online and hung up without ever having heard from a real person.
Do it now! I'd bet the hotel will be sold out, at least for some nights, within hours.

I got my room (thank god), but I decided to go back just to see if anything was left. By 8:26, rooms were unavailable for those staying Thurs-Mon.

Anybody wanna call Guinness again? :)

Just got off the phone with them because online was only letting people book 3rd through 6th... because of other conventions and events surrounding dragon con, the 1st, 2nd and the night of the 6th are fully booked. So you can only currently book a 3 night stay. But, if you do, you can always check back throughout the year to see if you can extend your stay.

I'm glad you got your room.

Though all this craziness makes me glad that we stay with my aunt and uncle for free *L*

Thanks for this. I wouldn't have gotten a room at all if you hadn't posted this.

Ditto.

Couldn't even reserve through the Marriott.com site, which I had no problem doing last year.

And I called to complain. They're only taking callbacks.

So I love you, [livejournal.com profile] kkatowll for posting this and making my reservation possible. Thank you!

Heh. Yeah, she is pretty nifty.

I told her I'm willing to suspend my pessimism for her. As in, I believe that good things happen to HER.

So far, evidence has borne me out.

(My, isn't the world a small place? ^ v ^ )

Uh-huh. But where does that leave me where you're not involved? You're far too busy a person for me to drag you along everywhere.

Do they have openings for inexperienced copyeditors? Hell, do they have openings for inexperienced ANYTHING?

On second thought, the pay's really crappy. Hmm.
