GRAND CALIFORNIAN ROOM RATE for the MouseWait Birthday Bash Weekend Oct 19-21! The Disneyland Resort has always been good to the MouseWait Community and they have done it again by giving us a room rate at the Grand Californian for our birthday weekend of $249+tax (normal rate that weekend is $460+tax). Here's the deal: I need to give them room night numbers ASAP so I need to know if you are staying and what nights you are reserving. IMPORTANT: we cannot have cancellations so if you have ANY doubt whatsoever about the dates you are reserving then please DO NOT reserve at all! You are financially responsible for nights you reserve. MouseWait does NOT make any money off these rooms and we are offering these as a benefit to members in good standing only which is why I am requiring a minimum of 100 MouseRank to make reservations. After we confirm and approve your information we will send you a link to the Disney reservation site. At that point you will be required to pay for your first night in advance (directly to Disney). I need to submit numbers tomorrow so if you are interested act now! We are going to change things up for the Birthday Weekend, instead of having a banquet, we will have several events over the weekend. Stay tuned for details and here is the link to our reservation form which could be pulled down at any time http://bit.ly/ONm8VG
Please stop asking about the less than 100 MW Points. There is a good reason for this because for the previous 3 room blocks 99% of the people that flaked had low MW points. In this situation MW would end up having to pay for the rooms people flaked on. - Dahulagirl

Even 100 points may be too low to determine whether someone is a member "in good standing." - bluefairy 628.9 #175 1:54PM
And thanks for the one night deposit disclaimer. I did not know that there was flakeage as it were. Mrs Experiment and her room maters are groovy. - Butterlina 1313.6 #63 1:57PM
Some head and shoulders may help with that, butter. 😉 - bluefairy 628.9 #175 4:37PM
The only good flakes are Frosted Flakes. Mmmm. Frosted Flakes. - Experiment818 1598.0 #49 4:40PM
Should have been minimum of 1000. Lol keeding! - kristian 1806.9 #45 5:04PM
The Linkie workie if you copy pasty. Please do not destroy me. 😳 - Butterlina

So Admin, I know you said that there will be several events happening over the weekend but will the actual party be on Sunday the 21st? As it has been in years past? I want to be sure I book the hotel for the right night since I won't be able to book for the entire weekend. Thank you! - Duchess_SMK
