Please PM me your account number and i will check them. No. we are not pulling the comp room offers. We are not even tightening up. You guys have something going with your offers but i will need to look into them.

Just a reminder. If you had an offer for comp rooms for the last two months, it doesn't mean that you will always get these offers. The play we get from you the previous two months determines your offer. These offers are good for two months only. If you want to retain these offers, you will have to earn them. This goes for slots and tables as well.

OK well this explains my situation then. I never play a lot in the fall because the kids are in full swing in school and there's a ton of stuff going on around the house with Thanksgiving, Christmas, etc.

I'll be back in the loop after the end of the year!

So... it would be useful to me to have an idea of how much poker play/two month period is expected for one to maintain a offer level such as Sun-Thur comp room for the next few months (i.e. until Summer season)

Is there a level of poker play that can trigger comp Fri/Sat rooms?

Usually this kind of stuff seems to be super-secret, but maybe...

Not really a secret - Win $500 in poker - donkey in slots. Go back win $500 in poker - donkey in black jack. Works like a champ to get free rooms.....

A 2-way system is very unlikely, too may security loopholes.

Jut think of this.. if they have a simple (both basic html/java and an iTouch app) view of the signup page, you can monitor the list from your phone. You can refresh it (or the page will auto refresh every 2 minutes) and monitor your own status.

One other option is to have a page which shows just your name on all of the interest list (your name, your position (X out of Y), # active tables), etc. Since its a self-signup koisk it would be easy for it to find you as it would auto be your first initial and the first 3 of your last.

You could optionally put in your rewards # which the system would find your signups.

This makes it a simple thing for the B to do, and still puts the onus on the player to monitor their position on the list and stay near the room.

No pages, no global announcements, waiting time, feedback, etc.

Only 1 thing I could see as 2 way is to remove yourself from a list, but somehow it would have to know it's you and not someone else..

The same way they always do...

Pushing their walkers and driving their Rascals with their 20 in white chips, and O2 tanks, just circling the drain of life

I'd love to see this. Might even pay 99 cents for it if it would help offset the cost of development. If something like this isn't in the works though, expect it to take many months to get it developed and approved by Apple.

No channel, but you can call down and put your name in, stan mentioned the extension # to call in, I forgot the # though.

On the first in a series of trains now coming up to the beach. Train gets in at 10:30 and I'll be at the room by 10:45 or so. A registration update of some sort (long lines?) would be great sometime between maybe 9-10:30...

I think I know what is happening. Just a guess, but it fits the facts.

I had the same thing happen. All offers vanished overnight. Including a promised $5 in slot dollars for the end of December, free parking, room offers, etc.

I checked at the Kiosk last night, and all offers are showing there. The slot dollars are back, but the rest are not showing up on the website when I signed in this morning. (Other than some sort of room offer that doesn't offer much - it's not the poker room offer, and certainly not the comped offer.)

Looks to me like there is some sort of updating/problem/programing issue going on in the Borgata's IT department, and it is affecting how things appear when we check on line. I have no idea of any specifics of this - just taking an educated guess.

When I called to make room reservations, they knew about the poker rates and comp rooms - so that's not an issue. All offers show up on the kiosk - so the problem isn't there. It's an on-line only access thingy.

Hope that this helps point you in the right direction.

Please do keep up the good work!

Now, if we could only get pink chip games going more often........

Happy holidays!

Lee

Correct, sir, my slot $ just came back. Still not the proper room offer.

Stan your comment made some sense, but not all.. they wouldn't revoke a room offer in the middle of the month, I just wouldn't get new ones in future months.

I've never seem an active "offer" disappear.

Make sure you buy a round trip ticket, you don't want to play weak tight and not put your last $30 dollars into a pot there...

Oh and have 2.25 in quarters on you, so you have guaranteed Jitney fair, but make sure too avoid the sl00t machines (slot and whore variety)

Sorry about last week AL - I spend the day in bed. Unfortunately I will not be there tonight and tomorrow is tournament for me. I'd love to met you and the wife to finally put a face to the man who always makes me laugh with his posts. Hopefully the PCG game will get going next week.
