So do we need to do anything about hotels?

What about our parking through Affordable Indy Event Parking?

I'm surprised there is a $10 "return fee" for those who request refunds to the original form of purchase. Since the event is canceled, isn't Gen Con obligated to give a full refund, without any service charges?

If a VIG requests a refund, can they later renew for 2021?

Regarding Hotels, per the release:

If you've made a hotel reservation through our Housing Portal, your reservation will automatically be canceled, and you will not be charged any fees. The hotel queue will be reassigned for 2021.

So for those who managed to get a downtown hotel, the lottery will be completely redone next year and we will be at the mercy of next year's lottery?

Correct. Hotel slot times are not rolling over.

If I purchased multiple badges for myself and friends, do I need to request refunds/system credit for all of them, or do the individual badge holders need to each individually request it?

You all should have an email

Yep, the one time I actually got to book a DT hotel... what are the odds?

I believe we should get the same time booking as we did this year for hotels next year.

That is a separate company and you will need to contact them about their policies.

You do not. One email with their names will suffice if purchased on your account, but not before My 26.

We incur standard credit card processing fees for both the sale of a badge and the issuance of a badge. The fee is to cover those costs. We don’t make any money off of this fee.

If we're fortunate enough to be able to donate our badges, any chance we can designate part of our badge "value" to the affiliated charities?

Please consider extending the same time slots to the hotel lottery for 2021, or is there any way to keep our hotel reservations for 2021?

This is just not a fair policy for everyone. People with preferable time slots will be in favor of it and people without them will not be in favor.

I have no news on this right now. It is being considered.

Second this question.  Would like to get something to the charities.

ETA: And that's what I get for not refreshing the page enough...
