Yeah, I forgot to add what has been discussed about pre- and post-conference housing (it's updated now). To keep the pricing structure simple for the conference itself, we have talked about handling the pre- and post-conference housing separately. But, to add to the difficulty, I found out this morning that the ACT site only allows four pre-determined 'types' of pricing (earlybird, normal, reduced, and business). As of right now, we are unable to 'add' prices beyond that. The entire housing, meal option, and master classes may have to be handled separately.
<br><br>The $99 is actually what the price came out to. A single is $28 per night ($84 for 3 nights), plus $15 for the linen package (sheets, pillow, etc) bringing the total to $99. I suppose we could mark it up a dollar, making it an even $100. Thoughts everyone?
<br><br>For those coming early and/or staying late, there's also the on-campus Hilton. We're working on a discounted price right now.<br><br>Thanks,<br>Jeremy<br><br><div><span class="gmail_quote">On 3/13/07, <b class="gmail_sendername">

<br><br>What about people who are planning on being there some number of nights other than 3? I would like to come down a few days early myself for instance, and I imagine a bunch of hard-core hackathoners will be there earlier and later, too.
<br><br>In the $99 for 3 nights figure, is there a "markup"? I mean, are you buying it for $90 (e.g.) for 3 nights? I ask because this might not be a bad thing, with the markup to try to mitigate expenses for people for whom collection of the $99 becomes difficult. (
I.e. we get stiffed.)<br><br>Cheers,<br>Richard<br><br><div><div><span class="e" id="q_1114b48041f98cc8_1"><span class="gmail_quote">On 3/13/07, <b class="gmail_sendername">Jeremy Fluhmann</b> <<a href="mailto:fluhmann@gmail.com" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)">
