Yeah, I'm aware of the expo thing. Unfortunately, I have to be there for the fight Sunday night.
Yes, I understand the bidding process. I was going to add Boulder City, but since I dropped into 3.5, I got a little nervous about adding zones. I know the method is solid, but I didn't want to risk being way out there in some zone in a 3* star hotel. I'm not sure if that ever happens to someone, but I am hesitant. If I was doing 4* or better I'd use the re-bid strategy. Normally I like the zones I'm adding to have a full 1 point gap between the zone I'm landing in. Again, not sure if this ever becomes a problem for people, but it gives me peace of mind.
I may in fact go for the separate hotels thing, or just eat the larger price. I'm seeing priceline.Express deals that are certainly decent, so I was just aiming lower than those.
Thanks.
