An open-ended community for asking and answering various questions! Permissive of asks, AMAs, and OOTLs (out-of-the-loop) alike.

In the absence of flairs, questions requesting more thought-out answers can be marked by putting [SERIOUS] in the title.

Did you travel there? I've been meaning to get an hotel for a convention but I can't justify the price when I don't live that far.

I live on the north side of Chicago metropolitan area so it was about 40 minutes of travel one way. We weren't able to find any rooms in the adjacent hotels for a remotely reasonable price. I think the best strategy is to make friends and make plans to room with a group.
