MS, Summary of bounceback point postings

See below. Seems to be based on last action rather than Card rating.

250+50 for me Sachem
100+25 for my wife sagamore.

quarter level. I got an offer for 25 points + 10

150 points another 50 for email address I am
Sagamore.

$250 + 50 for Sachem. Last month was $500 and the month before $1000.

150 points to show up Oct 12-18 for Sagamore wife.
Another 50 if they have your email address
50 points for me.
Another 20 points.
$30K/action/day for her.
For me, haven't used my card in two months. Maybe $10K/day back then.

Does anyone know for sure if a kiosk/promotion card swipe triggers a trip? My play was sporadic in August and have no idea what to expect for offers in near future, but did get the 75 + 25 for Oct.

I don't know for sure but remember a post a year ago that said neither
swiping card, promotion redemption, or buying stuff with card triggered
a trip.

My host told me that you need to play on your card to trigger a
trip. I have checked with her when we go for free points and I don't
play and it doesn't affect my theo

It seems that 250 +50 was the highest. My guess it was based on theo
with 250+50 being the most unless someone got more. You need a theo
of 1,400 for sachem
Sagamore is about 500-1400 with trips and acutal loss a factor. If
it it was based on theo, that would explain the variance for
sagamore

My Sagamore wife is now Sachem. I know from previous posts that both
theo and actual loss come into play.
1)Think she has been awarded Sachem card because she lost about $5K
total over last three trips.
2)Her theo (barely) exceeds $1400/day for 16 days this year.

So, the Mohegan gambling slump provided a small dividend. Just have
to be careful that "Sachem" is kept in perspective. In the long run,
we are "lucky" to breakeven on the gambling part of this play.

Kind of follows the info from the below posting of 8/21 by
Turbotrader et al:
"I am sachem. You need to meet two of the following criteria. Theo

of 1400, 26 trips in a year and a certain loss for the year that I
am not sure of. The best way to get a higher theo is not to put

your

card in when playing a small amount. I play JOB and the theo loss

is

8% versus 5% for PE
Mel

The third requirement is a theo loss of $100K."

Could you please provide the Sachem benefits? I know they were posted a long time ago, but would like to see what the current perks are. Thanks.
