So far it sounds like the Hyatt. Has everyone who cares voted? Is it time I cancelled the Marrott?

Speaking of the Hyatt, I called them last Friday to confirm the $166/night price. Apparently, since I'm naive in the morays of Cons, I figured I ought to tell them that 4 people were staying in the room (so we'd at least have 4 keys among the 6 of us). The $150/night was for only two occupants in a double occupancy room.
I can call them and tell them we had two cancellations in our party and there'll only be two of us, but I imagine that that might make it more difficult to get extra keys...
What's the usual practice in this situation?

Due to some contracts being up in the air, there hasn't been any work for me for weeks now and I don't see me getting work anytime soon, especially since my boss i now working down in North Carolina and has been for weeks now. I was supposed to be working this week but that totally fell through and now I am screwed. I don't want to come off as some sort of jerk thats trying to screw anyone over or mess things up and sincerely apologise if I've pissed anyone off. Things are really on shakey ground here for me as far as work goes and sometimes I don't work for a month or more. Why do I stay on working with this company? Because eventually I'm more than likely going to be moving down south and work for the same company full time and regularly there. I haven't met a single one of you but I respect you all and love this group very much. Take a lot of photos!!! Kick some Cobra ass! I'm extremely disappointed that I can't make it this year. I really wanted to be there. Chuckles I'll be sending a 20 your way toward the flag soon!

Bummer, BBQ! We'll get to see that kick-ass costume in person sooner or later!
Fleetfang, yeah, you prob should've just said 2 people. Too late now. They should be able to give you the actual final total w/ tax and everything, & then you can divide by 6.
Okay folks, unless someone posts an opinion to the contrary, I'll be cancelling my Marriott reservation in:
3 . . .

Well I figured we'd need all the extra keys, just for the convenience factor. Oh well. Better luck next year.
If it's back down to 6 of us, I believe the math works something like 166.00 times 4 nights plus 14% taxes and service fees divided by 6 EQUALS: about $126.00 each for the entire weekend.
Have confirmed that Wil will be there for Friday and Saturday nights and he's good with paying a full share for the room.

Hey, I'm not leaving or anything! Just... *diversifying* a little bit. Don't worry; Tunnel Rat's BoozePack will still be fully stocked. I only thought I should have another costume on hand at DCon, since most everyone's bringing more than one. Or in the case of Lady Jaye, more than one dozen...
