Spikeo Posted April 18, 2006 Report Share Posted April 18, 2006 When you add additional areas, aren't you in danger of getting a hotel in one of those areas? I always want to stay in downtown Toronto as I don't have a car and my work in located downtown when I am here. I would not want to stay elsewhere. So how does on re-bid without adding additional areas? Thanks for your help. Link to comment
byeloe Posted April 18, 2006 Report Share Posted April 18, 2006 As long as the zones that you add have only lower quality levels than the level that you are trying for, you can add them and rebid knowing that you can't possibly get a hotel in the additional zones because they don't exist at your requested quality level.You need to check each zones max quality level individually in order to determine your free rebid zones.For example in Toronto the only zone with 4* quality is Downtown, so you can safely add all of the other zones(1 at a time) and get a free rebid, when bidding on 4*.If you were looking for 3* then Scarborough and toronto east are your 2 free rebid zones since they only offer a max of 2* quality.There is an entire thread on this site that explains Free Rebidding if you need further assistance Link to comment
