Hi folks! @patcon and i looked through the giant spreadsheet of RightsCon's draft schedule and found the combined session of @ttcat @darshana @itsmisscs @patcon and me on g0v nobodies on Friday May 18 2:30-3:45pm. See Cell M34, #611 (some kind of id number?):

@thebestsophist @darshana @itsmisscs are any of you interested in renting a big ol airbnb with liz and I? Maybe from Tues may 15 to Friday may 18? Specific dates flexible, I spose :)
lizbarry
07:32:56
yes, for instance, staying Friday night as well šµ

I'm also wondering if, for anyone interested in sharing an AirBnB, if a 10-20 minute bike ride (via https://bikesharetoronto.com/system-map/) to the conference venue sounds like a doable/good idea?

I am Lilin and I am dealing with the accommodation plan of OCF members (ttcat, Pellaeon and me). It sounds really nice to share the airbnb room!
Can you help to check available items?
Since we will be in Toronto from 13th May to at least 24th May, I am not sure if it is too long to share the place. If it is not possible we can still be neighbor!
Some Rightscon participants from Taiwan prefer to go together; I will also check if they wanna share the airbnb asap.

@lilin if we all did decide to rent a big place, any firm preferences among your group on private rooms / shared rooms / beds in common areas (or shared beds...? Haha sometimes I've done that with coworkers, but I know it's prob rare)
lilin
2018-04-08 15:44:00
i think a bed for each person at least! and I will check our members needs asap!

Also, even if we're just neighbours, we can still track plans and itineraries in same hackpad, if you'd like :)

Can i get people to add their green check emoji to this comment if you need a place for Tuesday May 15 - Saturday May 19, and if you want housing on additional dates, to start a thread on this comment? @ttcat @lilin @pellaeon @darshana @itsmisscs @thebestsophist. Also see this document helpfully assembled by @patcon that has five suggestions of places we could rent for various numbers of people: https://hackpad.tw/RightsCon-Toronto-2018-xuW4V8SCOHl

I'm a fan of this place (described in @patcon's hackpad ^^): if 8 of us split it for Tuesday, wednesday and Thursday nights it would be per person TOTAL US$156 / CAD$200 / NTD$4600. Note: this is not available to stay Friday night
itsmisscs
2018-04-22 06:52:04
Which place? Itās a bummer it isnāt available on Friday. It would be slightly annoying to have to checkout the day weāre presenting.
lizbarry
2018-04-22 07:54:12
AH, i like this one too but it's already booked for Friday night.....which it sounds like you are hoping to have....
itsmisscs
2018-04-22 08:45:34
I mean we could find another spot. It's just a hassle ish to move.

I just spotted in the hackpad that Taiwan OCF people are arriving Sunday night, May 13, so maybe we should rent the place from Sunday night onward? @ttcat

Hello! I am Lilin dealing with OCF peopleās accommodation
We have 4 people looking for a place to stay and two are arriving at Sunday night on May 13!

lizbarry
2018-04-23 21:26:19
great!!!! So, the ideas in @patcon's hackpad all start from Tuesday, but perhaps we need a place for Sunday-Saturday (for 4 -- me, @patcon, @itsmisscs @ttcat, other OCF person), and maybe another for Tuesday-Saturday (@itsmisscs CS, other two people) -------- how does this sound?
lilin
2018-04-24 17:25:50
So Sunday-Saturday means May13-19?
lilin
2018-04-24 17:29:31
Say, we will have two places, one will serve from May 13-19, and the other May 15-19, is that correct?
lilin
2018-04-24 17:29:57
As 3 OCF people are going to stay longer (until May 24), sounds like it would be better for all if we find another place?

2018-04-25 04:42:12
i'm down for whatever, but just want to point out this spreadsheet:
it's still a really great deal to all stay at one place, even though we're not all staying the same duration. I've calculated the nightly cost, assuming that "fair" is to all have the same per-person rate each night, through the whole trip (averaged).
Spreadsheet (please feel free to adjust price to the listing you're looking at): https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1cUZS2LsHt4YMWu4WeL4gv2NRH9PsYgCZ7Sr16vl8KPg/edit#gid=0
going to drop so details in the larger chat

Anyone have thoughts/preferences? *Little Italy-4 bedroom house* seems like my fave, with rusholme elegance in second.
Toronto has great bikeshare infra. there is also some full bike rental places near the waterfront. and so I think we should not weight proximity tooooo highly -- the venue location on the waterfront is on the far water side of the giant exhibition grounds, so there are unfortunately a shortage of places nearby

1. Most OCF people stay much longer than others and we really hope we dont change hotels during it
2. The budget for each night per person will be around NTD$2000 (CAD$86-87)
I am also looking at the airbnb site and I think this condition can be a little bit hard to find a proper place..

Little Italy, family friendly, and rusholme are my favs based on your descriptions. Having a backyard is plus plus

recalculated sheet so that private bedrooms are 30% more (used same markup as for hospital beds), to be a little more fair:

Do these prices look fair everyone? @lilin @lizbarry @itsmisscs

Also, some confusion with @lizbarry's USD $600 stipend (CAD $775), that she needs to allocated here for direct payment to "accommodations".
I've also just now realized that Airbnb allows splits that we could use:
https://i.imgur.com/itAuEYy.png
@ttcat has also said he can easily pay. @lizbarry can't get New School to pay until Friday.
Here's an action plan:
1. we get thumbs up from everyone that our price breakdown looks fair on Little Italy place (sleeps 7) and that @thebestsophist is for sure not in (if she is, we take the place that's further and sleeps up to 10)
2. @lizbarry finds out exactly how much New School is paying
2.5 @ttcat books the split cost so that @lizbarry can as close to $500 USD tomorrow as possible
3. @ttcat and OCF folks pay the other sides of the split too.
4. @ttcat ensures that liz is sent the information to pay the final split on Friday (in 12h) when she goes to New School.
5. @lizbarry goes into New School office and gets them to pay the final bit themselves.
6. we all square up according to spreadsheet after.
~If the above looks good, then we NEED ONE PIECE OF INFO from @lizbarry: What's the exact cap that New School will agree to pay to? (This will affect how many ways we initiate the split, and will block us on locking this in with our first payment :slightly_smiling_face: )~ done! $500 USD

Thanks for figuring this out!!!! It's so great. I would really like to answer this Q, but what's actually going to happen on Friday afternoon is that I sit down with an administrator and we just figure out how I can spend $750 USD and get a flight and a place to stay. I'll show them the split and hope that it works.
