I also agree that adt is the most important factor in offers and rooms. I don't live close to casino so when I go, like Karen, it's 1000 points or more per day. I can always get comped nights at all CET properties. I think this also shows why they are giving you bonus tier credits for bigger play days.

I do live within an hour of 3 CET casinos.   I still stay away unless I am going to play big.   
so those of us who want to bitch, are going to bitch.  and those who want to bitch about the bitching are going to bitch about the bitching.

   I never put my card in a Caesars machine without getting at least 1K tier for the day,  and I have not participated in the Great Race. 

you being an adt maniac = i now have $3.20 in harrahs comps.  woo!  free diet pepsi!


There is no way I put that many points on your card.   You played a little bit at Paris, Flamingo and the Quad and that's it.  Oh,   btw,   Sex and the City still hates your card.   
so those of us who want to bitch, are going to bitch.  and those who want to bitch about the bitching are going to bitch about the bitching.

when i was last in atlantic city - i got a cheese sandwich from some place in ballys.  i didnt have enough points on my card and had to pay like a dollar in cash.  so i know for sure i had zero points on it.  unless i got mystery points?  somewhere on here is a thread i posted way earlier in the year where i copied and pasted parts of my tr statement that had dates i earned points on - small amounts - labeled as "entertainment" when i had not been in a harrahs casino at all those dates, that month or (at that point) even that year.

Of course, I can only speak from my experiences and of those I've spoken with.  I'm sure every one will have a different experience.  It says right in the 7 Stars Literature that if you're a 7 Stars card holder, you are guaranteed a room when you give at least a 24 hour notice. 

I will say, that I do not intend to play much at all the rest of this year, so it might be interesting to see what happens in the next couple of months.  Next year, I will start at it again, and I assume things would continue. 

I think I mentioned that according to an Executive Host I spoke with a Laughlin that ADT is no longer the measuring stick.  It is now the "stay" so you can play three days worth in one day and just a little on the other days and you are fine...still I think it's a little of the same thing, but then it seems these hosts don't all have the same story.

Most hosts in the CET system don't know what they're talking about.

Jon -- it may not be "daily" theoretical that they look at now -- as you say it's over the whole "stay", but your offers will still suffer if you continue to book them and low play. Your "trip" average will decrease and so will your offers. It will probably take a couple/few months for the effect to be noticed, but you'll notice. Guaranteed.

But... if all you're looking for is being able to book free rooms anytime you need them, you'll definitely be able to do that as long as you keep your 7 Stars status.
