Comic Con Guide

There's what people imagine Comic-Con to be and how it really is. I deal in the latter.

@HiddlesaMuse Badge sales are on Saturdays, hotel sales are on Wednesdays in recent years.

[Comic Con Guide @SDCCGuide]

The #SDCC hotel sale is going slow, so don't give up. I was shocked by getting the Marriott for the first time in 3 years - and I didn't even get in right away. The top hotels are gone but there are still some other downtown hotels available. Hang in there.

@rexigarashi What did you get?

[Comic Con Guide @SDCCGuide]

I have to say, I like this process better than waiting for your #SDCC hotel acceptance letter. It's more efficient and I don't think your odds are any worse. But yes, I did see rooms vanish mid-process - not fun but just had to move on.

@PigeonToast__ No, I just bailed. I already had my hotel but was trying to get one for a friend.

[Comic Con Guide @SDCCGuide]

@TheRealHades How did the old way prevent that? It didn't.

[Comic Con Guide @SDCCGuide]

@PigeonToast__ That happened to me too. So sorry.

[Comic Con Guide @SDCCGuide]

@Ray_Granxyz Bingo. I wondered if that influenced good hotels still being available when I got in.

@kivonshe From the CCI website? I didn't notice.

[Comic Con Guide @SDCCGuide]

@JonMcClain18 Hotels are for sure the harder get.

[Comic Con Guide @SDCCGuide]

I'll admit - my stomach is in a knot today. Hopefully today isn't a complete bloodbath. Good luck getting the hotel of your #SDCC dreams and try not to stress too much.

[Comic Con Guide @SDCCGuide]

Don't freak out if today goes slowly. That's better in terms of keeping your #SDCC hotel in your cart until you check out.

@randywcgcomics Or requested an extension. 😓

[Comic Con Guide @SDCCGuide]

Beware the Ides of April: we've got a #SDCC hotel lottery this Weds. Love that it falls on Tax Day.

[Comic Con Guide @SDCCGuide]

@jlooksky You can lose the hotel during checkout but your information is saved - you just pick another hotel.

[Comic Con Guide @SDCCGuide]

Again - study up on the new #SDCC hotel process if you haven't yet. Talk to your comrades. Some people I've spoken to had zero idea of the changes. https://t.co/UAB8v8exT3.

@DebiCole9 Right? Foundational knowledge.

[Comic Con Guide @SDCCGuide]

@sarahdraperhor2 The Sheraton is a quick shuttle ride up Harbor if nothing else is left.

[Comic Con Guide @SDCCGuide]

I'll post later but please study the new #SDCC hotel lottery process and rules. This year already sounds quite daunting.

[Comic Con Guide @SDCCGuide]

@sarahdraperhor2 There are always rooms left over so you'll probably see something available. But might not be downtown.
