Looking for roomies for TAM 2014. Have rented a two-queen-bed, non-smoking, mid-level room, just as in past years. Total cost for four nights (Wed.-Sat.) is $320. Willing to take on up to three persons. At this writing, ladies okay, and persons willing to share a bed ok, too, but check with me in case I take on someone who prefers his own bed (and will pay half the room accordingly) or prefers no females. Usual conditions apply: I understand it's a 24-hour deal (both TAM and Vegas), so as long as you come and go quietly, don't wake sleeping persons, stay sober, and don't steal or break anything, all will be well. I arrive at or before 11:00am Wednesday and ship out first thing Monday. Will be doing as much of the volunteer stuff as possible, since we're all-volunteer this year, so you may not see me in the room all that much! Can reach me via this thread, or at steveb@e-z.net or even call me at 503-246-9520 in Portland, Oregon. In the unlikely event I end up unable to attend (would require severe disability or death), will pay my share of the room and will be sure that the person(s) using it can get keys at the front desk. Have never had problems with roomies at TAM and have attended every single one stateside since 2003. Either I'm easy to get along with, or I've had an unprecedented string of good luck! Oh, and we can do the floor thing, too, if people don't mind sleeping there. So get in touch, and let's do this! Steve Bauer
 
Sold!

Wowbagger, we roomed together last year. You want to pay half the room and have your own bed guaranteed throughout, or just pay $80 for a quarter of the room and take your chances? My goal is just to get it down to where I pay $80 for a quarter of the room, and I am willing to sleep on or share the floor, or whatever works and makes everyone happy. I will PM you about this as well.

Would anyone be willing to share a two-queen size bed, smoking room with a couple of cool folks? You will get your own bed.

Well, I can't speak for anyone else, of course. But, one of my hobbies happens to be posting weird, irrational demands on Internet forums, a few times a year.

You're not supposed to know about it. So, don't tell anyone.

ETA: And don't link anyone to this post, either!

Yeeps! Okay, everyone, simmer down. I never make this offer without drawing a huge string of odd replies. Even at Scout camp and sports camp when I was a tadpole, we could always figure out sleeping arrangements without much fuss. Anyway, I confirmed one roommate and am happy to have others sign on to drive down the cost, so let me know, and I'll keep watching the skies for aliens and the Forum for roomies. SB
 
Update from the original thread starter: we are now two veteran TAM guys sharing this particular room. We have room for up to two more folks. Cost of room is $320, two non-smoking queen beds for four nights (Wed.-Sat.). Join us and pay a third of the price of the room, and you're in for only $80, which is $20 per night, all taxes included. Time is getting short, and if the hotel books some of the other high-use stuff along with us (like the BMX, bowling, and/or martial arts tournaments, they can sell out of almost everything but their suites. So don't delay, post/write today, and save yer space. SB
