Don't charge for drinks, but ask for a small donation of a few bucks to cover costs, and once all costs are covered, donate the rest to something nice. Like a local charity or something.

Shh. the parties and the rooms are a secret.

you have to know the right crowds and the secret password to get in.

but sometimes getting out of the room is the hard part....

I bet i could guess at least a few names of whos gonna randomly drunk dial/or text me all weekend.

I cant rescue every damsel in distress all at once... but its gonna be fun tryining.

NOW i KNOW WHY the elevators take so long...  :P

Booze, music and carding.

Lol

Oh, and tits help a LOT.

Helps a lot too if half the floor or more is your people and not strangers or "old" people. A beer tossed to someone 4 doors down can smooth out almost any problem.

Have fun just remember no booze for you because your only 16 and that person providing the booze could get in trouble if something bad happens.

 KNOW YOUR GUESTS.

It's a common mistake; you meet some people at a con whom you think are a lot of fun. So you unwittingly invite them to a room party. It starts out okay, you get the drinks, the pizza, everyone's having a great time and then...someones phone rings.

You barley hear a long winded rant from the person on the other end of the line, and then, a pause from the person on your end.

By this time, it's too late. Parties over, and all you've earned from it the wisdom to stay the hell away from that person.
