I can understand the frustration since it's such a departure from how it's worked in the past and what was expected for this year, but I've gotta say, I really agree with this change. Casey has absolutely nothing to gain finanacially with this change, as there was absolutely no risk of the Caliente not selling out quickly. A lot of us gave feedback last year about there seeming to be a number of people who weren't there to really enjoy Oasis but instead to get stumblingly drunk poolside and (speaking from my personal experience) incessantly pester the door staff. On top of that, they've had to figure out a solution to the parking problem. I think this works out great.

I'm sure a number of us would be willing to add names to our room registration to "sponsor" any people who'll be staying in other lodging locally (e.g., with friends), and that additional $10/day over the past ticket fees I think is fair to compensate for Caliente dealing with the extra body during the day's festivities.
