While I appreciate the desire to share deals, to post every single individual room that's on Roomertravel isn't particularly helpful.
Moreover, these threads lack any information as to what Roomertravel is.
Roomertravel is a site that is reselling others' nonrefundable reservations, and there is thus only one room for sale, and there are risks involved for the purchasers of these rooms.

1. I did not post every single room, only the better discount/ chain hotel ones
2. Yes, I'm not going to explain their business with every post as I'm not in their business. It is clearly stated when you click the link and read their website what their business is. It has already been extensively discussed before (http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/hotel...per-night.html)
3. I already compiled some into Amsterdam, New York and Bangkok threads
4. yes, it is one room. That's why I add people should let us know when they book them, so everybody knows it's gone (read my post ^).
5 Thanks for sharing your opinion

This rate is similar to the $81 on Hilton.com for the buy 3 night promo or $87 for the MVP rate. Being that this is Thanksgiving weekend most hotel rates are lower than usual during this time period.

In that case I would recommend chosing that rate

You've started 21 threads in this forum during the last 8 hours alone. Please stop. This is not the RoomerTravel forum. It's ridiculous. I'm going to alert a moderator.

Good for you; I hope you are proud of yourself for alerting a moderator about this injustince in the world.
I'm not associated with them; if you cared to look into the other 675 posts i made you would be a bit more appreciative. It's your kind of people that make me want to keep these deals and the MR's to myself. I'm sure when i will keep them to myself, the moderators and rest of the forum will be ever grateful to you both. Especially when they miss out on things like free Melia hotel rooms because of noble knights such as yourself (http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/hotel...ia-hotels.html; 291 replies, over 41,000 views)

1. I haven't posted one in hours, so I already stopped
2. How about you start posting some deals rather than just lurk?
3. I didn't hear you complain when you were benefitting from my MR's http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/milea...ish-miles.html I'm sure there are at least 21 MR threads I have posted using DL, or via Kayak, but nobody seems to have a problem with that

Flyertalk seems to be flooded today with roomertravel deals. Is there a write-up that describes this travel agency, and gives a general overview of the possible deals? Thanks.

Here's an earlier thread on them: http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/onlin...ng-roomer.html

Here's their crunchbase: http://www.crunchbase.com/organization/roomer
They are funded by BRM capital, see here: http://www.crunchbase.com/organization/brm-capital

They basically sell normal rooms (not discounted) and allow regular consumers to sell their non-refundable reservations if they can't/ want to use it. Often people give a discount to stimulate the sale of their non-refundable reservation. Some of the ones with high percentage discounts or chain hotels I posted. They explain their model further on their website.

So the deals are not special to today, I just had some time to post some. New ones come and go continuously.
