Just some miscellaneous information from last weekend.
I stayed at NYNY last weekend (Saturday through Monday nites) and ran $29000+ through on $ pickem and multi-play NSUD. Room was comped upfront, and on check out they would not pick up my only room charges of $31.96 at the coffee shop. VIP said my comp account was overdrawn with just the room comp even though it was just a regular room. It looks like they think their rooms are now worth over $10K coin-in per nite. My host was not there when I checked out, and I have sent her an e-mail asking about this. I have never paid for anything before at NYNY over a number of trips, and although my play was a little lighter than usual, I was still surprised when they wouldn't comp the $31.
At the LVH I played a little on my son's card, (didn't want to get tripped with small play) and received comp points at the rate of .25. This was for a non-hotel guest play with nothing comped up front.
Played the Stardust 30-minute new slot club sign up, and ran $2775 through in 32 minutes on the $9/6 JOB at the Baccarat Bar (pretty good Tanquery martinis <g>) and was told that I could have 2 buffet comps or $20 credit at Tony Roma's. Didn't use either, but that seems like a pretty good comp rate in addition to the $11 CB. I will post how much they rebate for the 100% CB promotion when I get the check in a couple of weeks.
Played the 10X CB promo at Terribles, and noticed that they now have a kiosk for getting comps and they swiped my card at the buffet without having to go to the slot club. The line at the slot club was non-existant when I was there. I am guessing that swiping the slotcard at the point of use has eliminated the ridiculous wait that you used to have at the club. I don't know if you can swipe your card at Bouganville, but if I had to guess, I would guess that you can.
