LeakyCon has opened this thread to help those attending the conference to find roommates. While we have negotiated a pretty low rate, let’s face it, staying in a hotel for a weekend can be expensive, and we totally understand that people will want or need to share the monetary responsibility.

That being said, we cannot stress enough how important it is for you to be very careful when choosing a roomie or sharing a room with people you may not know very well. Those under the age of eighteen should be particularly careful, and be sure your parent or guardian has met or spoken with your prospective roommate(s) and have the details on how to keep in contact with you and/or them during the conference.

Finally, we need to make it very clear that LeakyCon is not responsible for finding you a roommate, nor can we be responsible for their behavior.

CONSTANT VIGILANCE!

Wow. MillytheKneazle, that sounds almosty exactly like my LeakyCon life. I'm fourteen and will be fifteen for the Con (actually exactly fifteen and a half biggrin.gif ), will be going with a 49 year old parent, a 20 year old sister, and an 18 year old brother. That's weird.
I don't think I'll be needing a roommate but hopefully I'll see you at the youth events.
Try getting a part-time job. Some bussinesses hire at fifteen. You can do odd jobs for people in your neighbourhood too. If you don't buy pretty much anything untill Leaky, then you might have enough money.

Hey guys! My name is Ben and I'm looking for roommates aswell as everyone else on this thread lol. I'm not picky I'll room with anyone. most likely I'll only be in the room to 1.sleep and 2.shower so you dont need to worry about me being a problem. I'm the funny good guy type and I just wanna have fun. I'll be 23 by the time Leaky Con happens. Oh one more thing is I'm a big guy. I don't know if it matters or not but w/e. I'm like a Buff fat guy if that makes any since lol. I don't mind going co-ed or w/e. I AM NOT A CREEPER so you don't have to worry about that(total creeper thing to say but I'm not lol)

So, I just booked a room at the Boston Park Plaza for the nights of May 20 - May 24 (checking out on May 25) and am looking for three roommates to help me share the costs. I am a 24 year old girl (well I'm 23 currently but by the Con I'll be older), a Gryffindor, and although I'm not a Boston native, I spent four years there during my undergraduate, so I'm comfortable with the area. I am also a huge beer geek as well as a night person, so if a bit of light drinking bothers you, or someone coming back in to the hotel at 3 am is a worry, this isn't the room for you. I'm willing to go co-ed, but no minors under 21. I've also reserved a non-smoking room, FYI. If you are interested either shoot me a PM or e-mail or AIM:

dekestel@alum.mit.edu
AIM: DevinaQueena

I am really looking forward to having a blast at this conference and would love to know who my roommates will be early on so that we can all get to know each other prior to LeakyCon!

hi!!!!!! I made a post earlier in this thread but It was kinda short so here is another biggrin.gif I am 18, female, and from MA though I go to college in CT. I love wizard rock and potter podcasts. I don't drink or smoke, and would prefer to be with people who don't smoke, I don't care as much about the drinking but preferably people who don't drink. I am so excited to meet people cuz I do not know a lot of big fans IRL. I would prefer to be contacted through email cuz I never check this. My email is etkindy@gmail.com btw. I am going by myself so I would like to meet ppl to hang out with during the con smile.gif

Two college students (age 19 and 21) are looking for one or two fun HP fanatics, preferably females, around our age to split the costs of our large 2 bed hotel room and have a good time!

The room is booked from Thursday-Sunday (checkout Sun. morning.) It’s a non-smoking room. One of us is a Boston-area native who will be happy to help to out in your adventures around the city. The 21-year-old is a drinker, so please be comfortable with that.. and costumes, Harry Potter trivia, and other outrageous antics (we will be celebrating a graduation and birthday during the Convention, fyi!)!

We also pride ourselves on being massive Ron/ Rupert Grint fans, so Rupert Grint haters need not apply.

Contact us both: stephj821@gmail.com & kmsilva@student.umass.edu

Hello

I'm an older Harry Potter fan (34 years old) flying in from Belgium. This will be my first Harry Potter convention and my first trip to the United States.
I'll know some people already, who I met briefly in the UK.

I'm kinda shy at first contact but once I loose up, which shouldn't be difficult around HP-fans, I can be very talkative and behave like an excited teenager.

I don't smoke but enjoy the occasional drink.

I'd stay from May 19th till May 26th and I'm looking for one or more roommates to share the cost of the room.

Please PM for more info and for my MySpace and Facebook profile.
