Al3xK said: In Vegas now and here's a tip, it costs $4 at the MGM for a coke from the fridge, but the fridge is stocked full so you can't use it. It's worth the $4 so that you can buy a small space to put stuff...aka remove the coke and put things on the weighted square. I've already kept my mixed drink cold, kept my room service club sandwich that I couldn't finish fresh, etc with it.
It seems like the most useful $4 I can spend to get a square. I keep the "privacy please" thing on the door so the hotel staff doesn't come in and stick another coke on it.
We should also have an "I'm drunk" thread on here.
This is actually a great time. Sometimes you can just ask nicely at the front desk and they'll send a fridge over for free, especially if you have small children.
zerosports said: What can you redeem on MyVegas Game?
Plenty of things. Vouchers for shows, food, drinks, rooms, room upgrades etc. My wife and I have been playing since around Feb 1st and have almost enough to redeem 3 rewards each. We are going for pair of Zumaniti tickets, $150 steakhouse voucher at Circus Circus, pair of Bellagio Buffet vouchers, $100 dinner credit to Nine Fine Irishman at NyNy, then a few throw ins maybe drink vouchers
I've been playing for about 10 days, I don't maximize and go through the hoops like some people, but with minimal time invested I'm up to 10k points. Heading to Vegas in June so I've got plenty of time. Going for the 2 free nights at the Mirage to start with, anything left over after that will go for food.
I've seen some people get hundreds of thousands of loyalty points within a month. I think they start out buying or something though and blackjack seems to be the secret to leveling up fast. What do you guys play?
But I mean if you bet that low, what level are you? Once you hit 58, betting 200 or 400 on birds takes like 22 spins for 10 lp or something like that. Would take forever.

Im level 57, wife 58. So we should be getting close. I think betting 1k on Black Jack seems to gain fast.
Can you tell me something, I'm at 130's, and I remember when I played bet the farm, it used to be 6 spins for 10 LP, but now it seems to be 8, did they change something?
zerosports said: What can you redeem on MyVegas Game?
I'm going in July and so far I've redeemed for 3 nights Tower Suite at Mirage (~$900) and 2 tickets to Zarkana (~$350).
I'm able to redeem 5 rewards within 30 days for my trip... still have 2 left to use so saving up for another Cirque de Soleil show or some food and beverage credit.
Just an update for you guys. For 3/30 limits, I've confirmed that buying $5 changes it to 4/30, buying $99 + a $5 package gets you 6/30 and buying $238 worth gives you 10/30. Of course this might change, but this is what i got talking to my myvegas friends. Hope that helps.
Tip: Biggest disappointment ever: Staying at the Trump. Boo hoo. Although beautiful, this hotel is NOT ON THE STRIP and DOES NOT HAVE A CASINO. Ok, that might not be a bad thing

You mean you need to pay every time you open the fridge that's inside your room?

Firewall?
No, I don't think so, I'm connecting at home. Reading online it looks like others have been having a similar problem for a couple weeks but no one comments if it has been fixed or not.
dohethman said: Have you tried different browsers as well? Sounds like some weird flash issue you're having.
It is a flash issue, I haven't tired other browsers because I don't have admin rights to the laptop, it's a work laptop. Should of stayed on Windows XP with the old IE, it at least worked then.
dohethman said: Oh lol, should you even be playing myvegas on work laptop? Maybe they disabled flash so you guys can't play games.
My IT department is pretty lax and the fact that the laptop is 6 years old they really don't care. Flash isn't disabled because I had them update it once a few weeks ago.
dohethman said: What kind of company has 6 year laptop running still, lol.
Mine is the only one, I had it 2 years ago and just hung onto it. It's not my main computer, I have a high powered desktop at work. I keep the laptop at home for "working" from home. As I said, the IT guys don't care that I keep, most people here don't have laptops, the ones that do are 1-2 years old.
Good resource, thanks, but I'm not a huge fan of Hotwire. Much rather use Priceline as you can almost always get a way better deal. Just returned from a mid-week stay at the Palazzo for $88 per night. Priceline users should use this instead. Vegas Priceline Hotels.
