I want to be able to let people register for events who can have a complimentary ticket at no charge but can use the same registration form as everyone else. trying to determine the best way to do this. heck, maybe i already can and don't know it. enlighten me!

one way i thought of would be some kind of conditional field like drupal does...if you select the 'comp' option a conditional field shows up and you enter a password or something; if it's not correct then you can't use it.

another idea would be to have a price set with some kind of acl on a particular choice that could be associated with a role/group.

another idea would be to have someone enter a passcode and if it's correct pass some parameter to the event reg form that could show the 'comp' price option. maybe this is easiest as i could possibly just hide/show the particular radio via css and pass a new class into the template file if the passcode is correct.

or of course if there's any level of interest for others perhaps this could be a feature request for civi.

thoughts or suggestions on best approach here are appreciated.

There's some existing code via hooks to do event discount coupons (you could do a 100% coupon).
http://civicrm.org/node/566

The only limitation is that it can only be implemented for standard event fees (not pricesets). Though Lobo was talking about adding a hook in order to impact the amount (like buildAmount) for pricesets -- not sure if that's been done -- but there may be more capacity to extend this to pricesets.
