The new booking process
NightHawk:
I allready ordered an American Express card just for the con. I hope that one will arrive till Monday or else i'm not going to attend. "3-5" Business days for the option Martin posted from now on is likely to end up having no chance for a room.
I hope at least something will be done for non cc owners next year and not just flip us the bird like that again (a Team Member just told me "it's not our problem, but yours") though in a lot more vulgar, immature way. but I spare you his exact words. Well, it could end up being your problem if attendence numbers drop or the con gets a bad reputation for this.
Remember: This is a con in GERMANY, not the US !
My last resort will be directly contacting the Hotel. Worth giving a "final cry for mercy" at least. They are the ones to blame at most after all.

But it will go like this:
- it will be the exact same procedure next year - see all the descriptions that go with it
- the attendance numbers will not drop - see nose counter
- contacting the hotel to get a room outside of this process will not work - see the description, see my pics, and see the respective posts in the EF forum
You were late in organizing a credit card, but next year you're prepared for sure. Hope you will get your room and your frustration can dissipate. :)

If you order a credit card on such short notice, despite the requirements being posted two months ahead of time, there is nobody you can blame but one person :) Sorry.

We never flipped anyone the bird. We told you in great length, very polite, and way ahead of time how the procedure is going to change, and why. Here.
That is our official announcement, and if someone got upset with you in private, I am very sorry for that.

A credit card will not guarantee you a room anyways. Demand is roughly 50% over supply, so be prepared for checking out alternative accomodation in berlin ... either way. Just saying this to modulate your expectations.
