I appreciate the help, but it doesn't do me much good when all the hotels are marked as unavailable.

So it's now about two months to Fanime. Been checking the hotel registration page off and on, no signs of any freed up rooms whatsoever. Tried calling hotel reg, they tell me that I still need a hotel reservation to get onto the waitlist, which I couldn't get day of because the hotel reg site kept crashing the day rooms went up. Once I could actually connect, all the rooms were taken. This is utter BS. I've never had to deal with this for previous Fanimes - what happened? Why are you not allowed to waitlist if you weren't able to get a reservation? Isn't that the whole point of waitlisting? My group has all but decided to skip Fanime this year in favor of AX just because of this hotel reg nonsense.

I was able to confirm - the date of the placeholder reservation does not need to be same as the desired dates. Just be sure to cancel the reservation by the cancellation date. Or pick dates you are ok with. OR! be ok with the cancellation fees.QuoteTo get on the waitlist, they just simply need a reservation. For example if they have a reservation confirmed for May 23-24, they can get on waitlist for arriving May 21 and departure May 25.
Admiral Donuts' suggestion is sound.Quote from: Admiral Donuts on November 14, 2014, 05:32:44 AM
If you want to get on the waitlist, book a hotel from Wednesday to Thursday, there's still plenty of rooms left for that night.
The small catch 22 is that rooms really become available after the cancellation date. We are trying to address that problem, but that won't pan out until at least next year.
So if you do not get the desired room for the desired date by the cancellation date, I suggest you cancel your reservation. Then, check to see if any open up after the cancellation date.
