Spike ,'Conversations with Dead People'
Plan what to do, what to wear (you can never go wrong with a corset), and get ready for the next BuffistaCon.
I'm good with either. With a smaller group, the cost is definitely something to consider.
ETA: when they say junior suite, is there actually a seperate area or is more just the bedroom with an entryway?
ETA again: I found some pics on the website and the luxury suite, which I presume is the larger space, does look perfect. Hmmm.
I like the idea of the larger space, enough to kick in extra $ to make it happen.

Pretty much, yes.
I'm also okay with chipping in extra for the bigger room, if that's the direction people choose.
The bigger room would be nice, no doubt.
Okay, based on the nicer room and the fact that it looks like it's more convenient for the locals, I guess I'd vote for the later weekend.
I concur with Brenda.

Me too. More convenient for locals being the most important part, I think.
Isn't the less expensive hospitality suite also the less expensive rooms though? (I could be mistaken about that, in which case the rest of my post matters less).
It seems like nearly every year people have to bail pretty late in the game because they can't afford it. Then there is some noise about keeping prices down next year. Then next year comes and we don't really keep that in the forefront of the discussion and we slippery slope into the nicer options. I think this ends up hurting attendance.
If the choice is between $74.95 rooms and a $125 hospitality suite the first weekend or $95.00 rooms and a $250 hospitality suite the second weekend I really think we'll have less "Agh, I just can't do it!" if we go with the first weekend.
And as nice as nice stuff is, "Moar Buffistas" is a little better.
Room prices are $95 each for either weekend.

This seems like a very reasonable price to me.
