Chicago, Portland, Los Angeles, and Tokyo are on my agenda for the booking period and struck out on all.
I did do a search to find out where Ube is located, so I did expand my geographic horizons.

The list seems to come and go on IHG's website. We have all the regions now up at http://bit.ly/PCPB0313.

Is it me, or did the US hotel list clear out in an hour? I can only see about half of the original properties.

I got thje Asia list once in all of my now uncountable browser refresh and update the list at the pointbreak list. But until now, I did not get it again and still see the old list for most regions.

I need to book 2 nights at a single hotel, but 50% change may need to change to 1 night. Can I call later to have 1 night removed or is it safer to book two one nights?

Another question, is there a limit of # of PB room I can book per night? Let's say I and 10 friends want to stay at a hotel, can I book 4-5 PB rooms at the same property in 1 night?

No limit. But you might get red flags, and leave your self open to audits. Possibly selling rooms etc.

I've also had 3 PB and 1 paid booking all on overlaping dates and different hotel/countries (for friends and family, and the paid booking was for myself). All reservations were honored with no problem. However, there may be a risk that if you have a paid stay, they might not give you the points using the "overlaping stay" excuse.

Good point. In this case I'll be staying there too, so hopefully no red flags. And I'm definitely not selling rooms, I have some friends that we all want to stay together.
