Mine showed points to be earned as 3,160 but I'm staying 4 nights

*Edit* I just went back in and it says 3160 points not 3900

I had the same thing happen to me. Try plugging your reservation number into the system and it will probably show the correct points. Mine did.

I wonder if you should cancel and go back and do 3 nights at the $79 rate and then a separate reservation for the 4th night? Based on 3,900 points -- it looks like you're paying $98 for all 4 nights?

How do we match our Flyertalk name with our HI reservation?

I thought it was odd too because my reservation is showing the DO rate of $79 for all 4 nights. I booked when code was posted on lucky's blog extra early before it was pulled. I went straight through the hotel webpage and used the group code. I'm still worried i did it wrong but i havn't been told otherwise

Its real name they are looking for. He wants the hotel reservation name to match the name the seminar payment will be issued in

Is the Hotel sold out already?

When I follow the link and put in the FLY code, it goes to a page with the heading Rooms and Rates, but no rooms are listed. (When I didn't use the FLY code it said that no rooms are available). So it's not telling me there are no rooms but it is not letting me book either. Help?

Hmmm. I am running the IE9 release candidate. I wonder if the Holiday Inn site is not compatible. Can I book by phone?

Yup, that was the problem. When I put IE9 in the compatibility mode, the Holiday Inn site worked, though slowly. I've booked the room.
