IBC SHOW - Indianapolis Nov. 2 - 4 update

#1

Post by OctoberAle »

Hey everybody,
Just an FYI - we have had a bit of confusion around room availability at the hotel. Some people are reporting that they are being offered King rooms as the only option. This should not be the case. I keep trying to fix this. If you run into difficulties, please let me know, I will try to resolve it.

Also, I highly recommend making room reservations now! As we get closer to the show, I may have less ability to fix problems. The hotel has an entirely new staff this year, so I'm starting from scratch with them. I will begin assigning rooms this weekend, so if you don't have a room reservation by tonight or tomorrow morning, you may not appear on the list I work from.

Don't Forget: the Krueger's Special will be on the trade floor Saturday for viewing. I may try to convince the owner to bring along a couple more rarely seen Holy Grail items for show and tell. :lol:

Please go to the IBC Show page for room reservations, tables, and registration. Here: http://ibcchapter.com/show/show.asp

If you call the Wyndham Indianapolis West 317-248-2481, make sure you are directed to the front desk. They may try to direct you to a national line. Do not use the national call center! They know nothing about our show.

Cheers, and see you soon!
Steve

UPDATE: If you have problems calling the hotel to reserve rooms, please call one of the following local staff members at the Wyndham:
Sarah 317-381-6168
Anne 317-381-6109

They should be available Monday - Friday 8 to 5.

There is a new staff in place and something has gone a little haywire and we are having difficulty correcting it.

Additionally, it appears that the online link the hotel provided to us may not be working.
If you call the Wyndham at 317-248-2481, please connect to the front desk.
Do not use the national call reservation line! They will not know what you are talking about.

HARD CUT OFF FOR ROOMS IS OCTOBER 23!

If problems persist please contact me.

Steve

Probably one of the best can shows in the hobby. I will roll in early Friday evening. First show since Summerswap so I'm really looking forward to it!

I'm wondering - it seems like we have a lot more King rooms reserved than usual this year. Did anyone try to reserve a Double room unsuccessfully, and get stuck taking a King room? If so, let me know and I'll see if I can get that changed.
