And the hotel lottery's over. If you aren't already booked for a hotel within walking distance, you aren't going to get one.
I thought there was supposed to be waiting lists or something, but I'm not seeing how to get on to them.
And then I tried clicking on another hotel that was a few miles away, and that one disappeared from being available while I was trying to select it. Their web page is confusing enough for first timers that by the time you figure out what you're doing, the room you're trying to book is already gone. This whole system sucks.
I think I'm just about ready to give up on GenCon. It has outgrown Indianapolis, so there's no point in going until they move it to Chicago, which is the only midwestern city large enough to accommodate it. How long do you think it'll take for the people running it to realize that?
If it makes you feel any better, my hotel is 7mi away... I had bad luck on that lottery. Bleh.
