15K points doesn't sound bad. Thanks for your great help.
1) Do I get all the hyatt amenities and club lounge access as a diamond?
2) Can you do this online or do I have to call? (I can't seem to find a way to do it online at hyatt.com)
(and the reason I waited too long as I'm trying to book a last minute award ticket to either Berlin/Hamburg at Grand Hyatt Hamburg/Dublin (no idea where to stay) on LH in first or biz and haven't seen availability yet)

It's easily done online (I checked availability before my post) and you get all the Diamond privileges (and most likely an upgrade to a Club room).
Just log-in to your GP account at goldpassport.hyatt.com and then choose Redeeming Points / Free Nights and on that page choose Standard Rooms.... / Reserve. Then choose the location of the hotel, pick the hotel and then the dates. You should be all set....
And yes... waiting for award availability is always tricky. Something probably will be available soon (or ir might not since vacations are starting around that time). But you can always cancel the hotel reservation if you cannot find a flight.

No and no. See my post from 6/16. And my advice is to stop worrying like a felon and just assume it will work. The way this is going you will show up sweating and confess as soon as they ask if something is wrong.

Actually, it sounds like this is how it'll play out:
Hyatt Clerk: Hello, sir, and welcome. Can I have you name the reservation is under?
Rangers32: I'm not IBM. I don't know IBM. I once owned a IBM PC but hated it. Please forgive me. I don't want to go to jail. My dog is in the pound. And I can't remember my ATM pin code. But the Dodgers yesterday, 6-4. So Life is Good.

Used a costco rate in Osaka, did not bring my Costco card (which I really do have) and they asked me for it.
I could not produce it and they said they may have to charge me a higher rate so they made some calls and told me that they will make a one time exception because there are costcos in Japan (which I did not know prior to the stay)
Also charged me extra for a 2nd person since I only put 1 guest in my reservation

Also I'd be interested to know what the hotel charged you per night for that second person?

Checked in last night, due to rate code sent directly to counter. Asked for ID, yes I had mine with my ugly picture on it. Out of curiosity, I asked what would have happened, had I forgot my ID? No problem we would just call central reservations and have them look up your stay history to verify you have been verified recently and notated your account of the stay, then verified with the company by fax in the morning. Oh, so even without my ID, I could have gotten the rate last night. In the past I have never been asked, but here lately, it has been almost every single time.
