Need to work out who you're staying with? Got room for more in your hotel room? Advertise yourself here! Tell us about yourself and what you need, when you're arriving/leaving the con, etc. (Once you've got it worked out, we ask that you sign up officially on the con website in the attending members forum, that way we know how many rooms to ask the hotel for.) BUT! In the meantime! Get to know each other here and find a kindred spirit  |

I do need hotel roommates.
How do I advertise myself for that?

I think this is the place for that lol. I guess whoever posts here needs roommates. Count me in for that.

I think it is the concept of advertising myself that is throwing me.
This is giving me terrible flashbacks to camps at high school.

It's that whole humility thing they preach to kids about not thinking you're too special, then when you need to actually sell yourself for job interviews, or well, stuff like this...it gets a bit difficult. I'll say not being great at that is probably a good thing as far as character is concerned.

omg you guys, advertising yourself is not that scary :-)
Some things you can tell people:
- When you're arriving
- When you're leaving
- If you feel comfortable rooming with 2/3/4 people, or you don't care
- If you're a morning or night person
- If you'd rather have a quiet sleeping space or if you're open to having a party in your room after hours
- If you snore or wear earplugs
- If you plan on keeping food/booze/etc in the room and are willing to share!
You can do this! *waves pom poms*

Job interviews are painful...
Oh! I can do this!
I'll probably being arriving the Thursday.
I really don't care about how many people I share with, the more the merrier, only because I want to cut down my costs.
I'm more of a night person, but I can sometimes pretend to be a morning person.
I can sleep through anything, so open to anything.
I've been told I snore and talk in my sleep, but never enough that it has really bothered people. Though, if I do talk in myself it will be with a delightful accent!
I don't want to cut in on the turf of KBens Party Central, but maybe and I'm all about the sharing.
I also am charismatic, a quick learner, and know a lot about TVs and stereo equipment. I have many skills.

My turn!
I'll be getting in Thursday night.
As many roommates as possible to save $.
Night person/morning person honestly depends. So N/A at the moment. Cool with either.
I'd love to party in the room after hours but I won't be buying booze so BYO...
I definitely don't snore or talk in my sleep.
Only requirement is that y'all don't smell like tobacco. I gots me some asthma (I realize that was Santana-speak, but I'm blaming the caffeine lol).
Cool beans!

Hi, I'm Jess. :)
I plan on arriving on Friday, because I live fairly close, but I'm pretty flexible, and could also arrive on Thursday if necessary. I'll be checking out Monday morning.
I am comfortable rooming with 2, 3, or 4 people. Would prefer more people, because of the cost, if possible.
I'm more a night person than a morning person, but if I wake up, I'm alert and happy about it immediately, so if you plan on being awake early and are worried about potential noise, it doesn't bother me a bit.
I do snore occasionally, but I'm told it's pretty rare.
I'm open to having a party in the room, but I'm not the most outgoing person on the planet, so I doubt I'll be initiating anything in the room.
I will probably be keeping food in the room. If I do, anyone is more than welcome to my stash. I'll also definitely be bringing coffee. If I bring booze, it will be beer, and probably only enough for myself. But I'm a pushover, so if you're like, "Man, I wish I could drink with you guys, but I didn't bring anything..." I'll probably offer you some, haha.

I'll be getting in pretty late on Thursday. I'm driving from Texas. Leaving Monday morning.
The more people there are the less I have to pay! So bring it!
I'm definitely a night person.
When I'm trying to sleep I need it to be quiet... but I don't fall asleep till really late, so a party wouldn't bother me.
I only snore if I'm having allergy problems, so as long as no one brings flowers to the con, I'll be fine.
Since I'll be driving, I'm definitely up for making booze runs if anyone's interested.
I'll probably have an ice chest of food/soda with me from the drive.

Ok... So I have an idea.
So Leah, Jess and Kayla.
I feel we should combine forces and room together.
Thoughts?

If y'all decide to do that, I do believe Jess has already carved out a room on the official hotel roommate sign-up, so you two can just register and claim the spots in her room. Yay, finding roommates!  |

I have (and just updated that to include Thursday). I sent Leah a message on Tumblr earlier about it, and yeah, I'm totally cool with that. Sounds good to me! |

Yay, finding roommates! How do we do that exactly? I try to get to the attending forum and it pops up with a username and password prompt that I never registered for... |
