Sure, just call Maduro and ask what your options are to upgrade.

Yes! And I finally think I have the whole family lined up to come as well this time.

Question: trying to understand the Nitrox 'rules':

FREE Nitrox on regular package dives is not guaranteed but provided for Nitrox certified divers only if Nitrox fills are thru Pro Dive membrane system, otherwise $8 USD per tank

How else would we get our fills except via Pro Dive's fill system (since they're the ones providing the boats)? And what's the implication of 'not guaranteed but provided'?

Good question and I asked that also
Pro Dive offers FREE Nitrox as long as their system is working. If for some reason that should have a breakdown they would then need to go to another supplier and buy tanks. If they were to have a system failure.
They would let us know and you would have the choice to dive air or they would get Nitrox for you from another supplier. Then it would cost 8$ per tank.

On another note, The Chairman (Pete) will be offering free Nitrox certification for those who are not yet certified to dive with Nitrox. Details will be added soon to the deal page.

Post in that thread if you're interested in sharing a room with another member for the event.

Is called Surge. What is the difference, if any, between invasion and surge ?

Dennis can correct me but the Surge is typically a smaller group than the Invasion

I would never correct Jay that is Monica's job
In this case Jay is correct.

The SURGE is "typically" held at smaller resorts and with less Crew Members due to space.
The SURGE is typically held in January which gives us a reason to escape the cold and dive in some warm water. We will have welcome and farewell parties. We do not normally have sponsors attend and there will not be any prizes to win.
The SURGE is just an excuse to gather and dive for a week.
