World Championships 2013 - Las Vegas

The travel page looks kind of strange to me, why book a room from Sunday to Thursday? Or is it just the price pr day for those days?

(Yes I will register for feet, even thought I think the price is high compared to other long events that are also a tackle to host eg. MultiBLD and FMC, they take up at least 1 hour, feet does not!)

 

[vcuber13]

i read it as the rooms are 33% more when more people are assumed to be there

I think the problem is not the length of the event in itself but the difficulty to add unexpected extra competitors to the event. I agree with you about multi, but for FMC it's much easier, you only have to add a few extra tables and print more scramble sheets.

That's the price per day for those days. Sunday-Thursday nights are less expensive than weekend nights (Friday and Saturday).

 

[Kirjava]

Won't know if I'm coming for a few months yet, will try and arrange it though.

 

[Michael Womack]

So buy one for everyone and pass them out.

Or sell them at the venders.

 

[AustinReed]

Or sell them at the venders.

Because WCA has infinite money to buy them.

1. It's a pointless event.

No more pointless that 3x3 OH.

Yes, this. Weekends are more expensive, as is commonplace at hotels. We are not suggesting a Sunday-Thursday night stay (of course).

I agree, this is also a pointless event.

Yes I know that isn't what you meant, but I stand by my opinion.

 

[cityzach]

I'm coming 100%, I can't wait

 

[Noahaha]

I agree, this is also a pointless event.

By that logic every event is pointless.

 

[cubegenius]

Looks like I will be able to come! I just need $700.

 

[IamWEB]

2 weeks?!

 

[AustinReed]

2 weeks?!

Crazy Australians have school because it's winter. He's probably going to go sightseeing. In Vegas. In the middle of the desert.
