If I remember correctly, it was about 20? I remember thinking "No way".

Edit: Block rates are mostly for conventions and such. I don't think that 10 would justify a reduction, unless it's a small hotel or in the burbs.


Just tell them it's for a wedding, most of the Block rates I hear about are for weddings. I own a tux that BT could wear, all that's left is to find a Smiley: goat and it's a lock.

Weddings have a higher attendance. I think in Boston we only booked four or five rooms, so even 10 looks sketchy. I mean, they might knock the price down $10 a night, but free is much, much cheaper.

I would love to be abl to make it, but Jonwin and my plans for this August are still up in the air. I be by myself most likely as he isn't likely to get the time off during the summer, after taking a few off for Balticon.

Isould check to see what family I still have in and around the city. I should be related to a few O'Hara's or Rielly's still living here. Too bad my mom sold all the property, she had own years ago. That or I can crash in an ally behind the hotel. I'm sure if I had a tarp and blanket, I could camp out anywhere.

Just remember that Water Sprinklers are not load baring and have a ball gag, so not to disturb other hotel guests. No I never attended Disclave.

I know when I had to go to Chicago for my grandfathers funeral we were able to get a block of rooms discounted for under 20 rooms. Of course, it was for a funeral and not in downtown so I dont know if that made the difference. It wouldnt hurt to at least try and see if they would give us a block of rooms. And no one there has to know we're not there for a wedding if that were to help our cause ;)

Or just say it's for a funeral, as it's easier to find a corpse than a fake bride and groom.

Maybe where you're from. Up here it seems to take days and days of searching with dogs and all that just to find one.

I hear they found a dead hooker in a ditch just a couple of towns over from where I'm at. Perhaps I can convince the cops to let us borrow that one.

Good idea, Elderon. I'll marry her for the weekend, for the discounted rates, and the white hot violently passionate first night of wedded bliss.

I have access to a burial plot in the City somewhere. Have to ask dad where my brother is buried.

I'm sure if someone wants to set it up, they could. I vote tricky because, well, I don't feel like it.

We could say we're there for the funeral of our dearly loved Bob. We canfigure out an appropriate last name. Hell, in my family, funerals were more like parties anyways. Loud drunken send offs, now thats the way to go

Wedding = Funeral.

Atleast in the loud, drunken, send off. Oh, and your life and soul dying.

As a heads up to you non-journal readers, the Chicago Air & Water Show is that weekend so I'd recommend booking a room now.

We could have so much fun with that.. Get a casket, put a little powder on his face to make him look a bit more departed, then roll the casket around everywhere we go on a trolly. Video the whole thing and send it to a TV network as a new show pilot. I'll We'll be rich!
