Hello everyone, i am new to the forums- i have been reading them for a little bit before joining. I have used priceline before though so i am familiar with the bidding rules.

I am trying to book a hotel in NYC 8/15/08 to 8/19/08. I have been seeking a strategy to book somewhere in the Midtown area. I was reading on a different thread (i pasted what i am referring to below) about a similar strategy for 8-16 to 8-19 but i was very confused with what is meant by "add re-bid zone." I was not sure what this meant as like for example the first selection (Select 3* CPS, Downtown, MSG, MTE, MTW, and TS...) suggests trying to add ALL zones for the bidding. If $100 was rejected, i can't bid $105 for the same zones over again. (This is what i don't understand, which re-bid zone is being referred to here) could someone please clarify this a bit?

In my case however, i would prefer to stay in Midtown East, Midtown West, Times Square or Madison Square Garden. i do not want to stay in any of the other areas (especially not the financial district)

Thanks guys for the help (and for helping out a poor newbie) hehe
