Last year I had a 45 minute wait and got a downtown hotel room. This year I got lucky and am at 10 minutes (while the rest of my group are in the 2+ hour club).

Yep, another really bad "random" time...3 hrs 17 mins....just like last year.

Just out of curiosity, what letter does your last name start with?

1 hour 40 minutes. Not good. I love it, but I've already decided if I can't get a 10 min walk or less I'll eat the registration fee and just going to go to a different Con. GenCon has outgrown Indy like it outgrew Milwaukee.

3 hours 15 minutes. Looks like I'll be getting some tickets refunded.

Once again it pays to book ahead of time :)

How do you book ahead of time. I called the hotels and tried to book ahead and was told I couldn't. This is my one Con a year I'd be willing to pay (some) extra for it.

It's possible to get a down town room out of block. It's not even difficult if you are persistent and flexible.

Our group got 58 minutes, 1 hour 44 minutes and 2 hours 25 minutes.

Last year we got 12 minutes, 1 hour 2 minutes and over 3 hours.

Ya, my time is at the 2hr mark...probablly won't be able to get a room downtown. We'll probablly look at another con too. Given that WOTC isn't there and having to drive in everyday isn't the same plus our group will all be divided. Doesn't make sense anymore...sad. I've been going to GC for over 30 years.
