So, where is everyone going to be staying for manifest? Manifest just announced the place that will be giving a manifest discount, its urban central backpackers. I stayed there for armageddon last year and it was quite nice! They have a bar, plus crown and M9 is right over the road. It will also be mostly occupied by fellow crazy con goers like ourselves ;D Here is the thread: forums.manifest.org.au/index.php?showtopic=4978&st=0entry173124I think myself, dunks and zac will consider staying there (this is an assumption, tune in guys if you had different ideas... haha) Anyone else thinking of staying there?

I stayed there at the start of the year, its great if you don't end up getting put in a room with a random, you'll all need to book at the same time and outline that you want to be in the same room.
Boofhead and I are staying at Jac's, she decided that for us after animania :-P

When you ask for the manifest discount they also make sure u get in a room with other manifest people, so at least you know they aren't complete randoms. They don't do a 5 or 6 room do they?

Also, I don’t think I’m gonna have my licence by manifest, zac, u still gonna drive? And do you feel like driving to manifest from the backpackers each day? We will chip in for petrol and parking costs, and i can bring our GPS so we will know where were going!
Dunks- just book it now for the 3 of us, and don’t forget to specify manifest so we get in the manifest floor (I assume they will have a floor pretty much dedicated for manifest). Also be sure to get one of the rooms with an unsuite. (or wait till Friday and ill book it)

If its your stuff your worried about they have a massive locker for each person in the room and u can get a lock and key for it from reception. Or i suppose we could ask the staff is its possible for one person to bring sleeping gear and crash on the floor, that way we could fit 5 in our room. Want me to ask them?

I just rang them and they can provide a roll out bed in the 4 bed room, so we can fit 5! Should i call and make the booking? They said there are some left which sort of sounded like not many... also, shotgun a bottom bed
