Fumus--The strategy on collecting your buddies money is to flat out tell them you need this ammount now or you cant go, tell them you are not a bank and that you cant afford to pay for everyones trip, if this doesnt light the fire under there A$! then I dunno what will. Dont let them be dead beats, you are in the same boat as I am however I laid it out for my buds from the get go, when I call and say I need X amount of $$ by this date and you cant pay it you cant come, I got all my money the day I sent out the "idle" threat!

Yea, ya know it's never that easy. It's always hard when you want as many people as possible to go and you are good friends with them all. I definitly feel like I am going to set a date like you said and say I need the money by this date or find somewhere else to stay...bla bla bla...ya know whatever.

Also do hotels like the boardwalk up the price if they see that you are checking in with more than the total number you said you would have when you booked, if so, how will they know if you have a room with 2 people and then you have 2 extras that stay there too? I mean, is there some kind of strategy for that? Avoiding those $10 a day additional guest fees?

That I would have to say is going to be a luck of the draw deal, if you dont take the extra people to the desk with you, they wont know they are there and you can sneak them in, however i have heard from many of my friends that if they get caught after a certain time depending on which hotel without the guest bracelet they will be forced to leave, or register and pay as guests.

If your room sleeps 6 people, you'll get 6 bracelets. I've stayed there many times and this is how it works out. You'll be good to go. Plus if you say you lost a bracelet and you need extra, you should be able to get one or two extra but I think they cost like $5.

Yea I really like the Chateau as well, I am not sure where I am going to stay I haven't booked yet but I like the Chateau for sure. Ya see I am staying the 21st-27th, so I am worried that if I don't stay at one of the uber popular party hotels that come Sunday on it's going to be dead during the day etc.

Bigpoppa, you should be just fine. I went as late as mid April my first year down there and had a blast. Yea sure the place won't be as packed but you will have no probs meeting people and partying. We had to be carefull though, so many highschoolers there and we met several girls that didn't look anything over 15 and they would lie to us stating they were 18

I now notice that there are two spring break cards...the Panamaniac card...and the Rockstarpcb card...is there are difference? Are they worth it? I mean it's only $40, if they really do get your free entry at the big places...for a whole week that pretty much pays for itself right there right?
