Mohegan Sun monthly mailer

How do the monthly mailers work? I did a little over $60,000 coin-in in Sept on a double points day to finish off my Sagamore status but barely played in August. I received only $10 of freeplay available at the machine for the month of October. Is there a one month delay (i.e. play big in Sept and get big freeplay in Nov) and what is the ratio/payback (i.e $60,000 gives $50 monthly mailer)? October is the first time I've ever gotten freeplay that was good for one month. Is one month freeplay a Sagamore perk? How do you maximize your monthly mailer? Is keeping track of your monthly coin-in a requirement for maximizing your monthly mailer?

I am Sachem level.
The free play amounts have been reduced drastically. I was getting $200 at least once a week. During the last 2 months my free play has gone to $75, sometimes in a month and sometimes only on specific days.
They have been sending more free dining coupons.

I just was bounced down from Sachem, in spite of having almost triple the points
needed for Sagamore, and the mailers are down to $50, specific days. At least
the food coupons (which are also down to $50) are usable anywhere, not just in
Bobby Flays and Tuscany, the two worst restaurants in the place, IMHO

The monthly mailers are based on your theo or adl (average daily loss) There has been a very large downgrade in free play. It isn't based on one trip but probably 3 months and they are always a few months behind. With the downgrades in theo for VP we will all see our free play and offers drop dramatically. The club sachem (33rd floor) has dropped from 750 and 500 t0 300 and 200. The more you lose the higher your level will be. Makes no sense

Do you know what the theos are now for VP? I didn't have any problem making
Sachem the last two periods, but apparently wasn't even close this time, on at
least as much play. Thx

So what does a player do ? Doesn't AC look better to those of us who live within the same, or reasonable distance of the shore ? The point in regards to any casino,is if they tighten the screws and players continue to patronize them then they are the smart ones and we the players are the a-holes !
  And if there aren't any other viable VP gaming options then a player has to be able to walk away from it all and if he/she can't then they have a problem of a more serious nature.

Used to be 4.25% of your play on JOB and around 3.5% on Pickum. It is now in the 1 to 1.5% range

Everyghing is being downgraded. We used to get 500 debit cards and now it is 150. The only thing that seems to be around the same is the food cocoupons and that is probably because the restaurants are so slow. It also seems that in the last few months the level of performers in the arena has gotten much worse also.

To me it makes Foxwoods much more attractive. They are actively looking for and
comping players. After about 5 trips my offers and Free Play from Foxwoods are
much better than Mohegan. They are very quick in starting to send offers 1-2
weeks and offers are updated on-line daily

Even the food coupons have gone down. from $250 to $150 and from weekends to
weekdays. They have also combined households aka Harrahs for most give aways and
special events.

We still made Sachem now but it is only a matter of time until all VP players
are downgraded. The only way a VP player will be able to make Sachem is with a
huge ADL. I think I'll pass.

Nothing under $1 and no playablepick-em. At the $1 level they have 3 banks of
progressives with 9/5 JOB and 9/5DDB. They also have $1 9/6 DDB with a 10 coin
royal. They have about 20-30 $1 machines with 9/6 JOB and 9/6 DDB but you need
to play 25 coin for the full pay royal.
