I am still a maybe. If I am in, then I will contribute to the table.
I was supposed to go on a cruise but that has just turned into big drama. I may chunk it all and go to comicon if I can find a room and it doesn't cost an arm and a leg. I can only afford to lose on of those.

Hmm, an hour to go and still no list. Last year, the online reservations stuff was all set up at least a week in advance, you just couldn't actually use it. What's going on?
Good luck, everyone! Even if you don't get a con rate hotel, there are lots (like mine) within easy walking distance that aren't part of the con conglomerate.

I did it! It only took a very frustrating 1.5 hours, but I got a hotel downtown (8 blocks away) for a decent rate. I didn't get my first, second, third, or even fourth choice, but it looks like a nice place, and it has shuttle service to the Con.

A lot of places are already booked solid; while yet others are still open for Wednesdays and weekends - but NOT Thursdays or Fridays.
Be prepared to either hop from one hotel to another, or be 5+ miles away (old town or Coronado, or even further out), or else seek a place not in the official listings.
PS: Great news, Ronda! Both on the room, and that you're coming!

I hate to say this but I need to face the fact that Caroline and I stand a high probability of not making it this year. Especially now that rooms are way out of our price range. I know we have a few more months and I'll keep working on it but I'm not betting the house (which is the main reason we may not make it).
