i'm so glad i got to be in the unconditional wave. i guess its because loughborough is so popular so many people are using the site at the same time. also no one wants the crappy accomodation :P i really hope everyone gets what they want!

Same. Its a wonder that we didnt have this much stess and hassle when we did it, but i guess its cos they updated the website sometime in laat week and havent worked out all the bugs yet lol

Very fast, it's one of the most popular halls. Judging from some of the posts I've seen earlier in this thread, almost certainly less than an hour, probably less than half an hour.

When I did mine the Bakewell ones went quicker than the William Morris ones; so you can never be too sure as they are both quite popular

Just rang up and spoke to a lady. Basically, if you get to step 5, you're pretty much there. She said I have an offer and I will get an email to confirm it because you get 8 days to confirm the offer. She said the problem is the people that didn't register last week and have done it today have created the "back-log." Means I don't need to sit here all day waiting. Good luck to everyone else, hope you get what you want!

I wish I'd managed to get to step 5. I only got to step 3, so my fate is unknown...

Step 2 was where you picked your choice and step 3 was where it listed the details of what you'd chosen and you had to click continue and tick the terms and conditions box. I clicked continue and nothing happened after that.

I know I totally agree, I woke up like 8:55 expecting to log on and have a room by 9:15!! How wrong was I?! :frown:

I think Bakewell rooms have already gone.. me and a friend were going to go for it if Elvyn had already gone, but Bakewell went first according to the woman at the accommodation centre.

Oh also, at that point I think there was still rooms left in William Morris so don't give up hope yet!
