Cash ressie craziness?

[gopherit]

Back in September, for the heck of it, I asked MS if they had any 2 br rooms for cash ressie (with DVC discount) at BCV for August 7th 2004. Thought it would be nice to add just onnnnne more day at the beginning of ressie.

The MS person said no, so I asked if they had a 1br and a studio -- ironically, they did, so I reserved those, thinking that as we got closer to our vacation date, I could possibly get a 2br for the discount, and just cancel the separate 1br / 1 studio ressie. (It's for a Sat. night, so either way is still cheaper than pts, so what the hey, and the two rooms / sep ressies is still cheaper than 2 rooms at the Beach CLub too, so again, what the hey...).

I called this week -- still no 2 brs. I guesswhat blows my mind is how they had the studio and 1 br right off the bat at 11 mos -- to me, from the threads I see posted, those rooms are far more highly sought than the pts-pricier 2 br rooms. Why would they release a 1br and studio now? Why wouldn't they hang on to it for a while to see if someone wanted it on pts?

I must be missing something here....

MHO - August is a little slower for DVC. The rooms released are based on trades for cruises and other resprts. I am still baffled how they choose which nights and what sizes rooms to trade for though
