I'll vent also. I no longer see the advantage if being sachem with what they want you to do and the offers we are getting. FSP used to be 750 or 500. It is now the same with one less 0. Our next giveaway is an $85 mop and we are expected to put at least 100k thru. I don't even want the mop. The giveaways have gone way down. Unless they change back(which i doubt) it makes sense to get 1600 pts, become sag and just go Sun-thurs. That way I won't feel any need to play 100k a trip and risk losing significant amts. Just go and enjoy it without any pressure.

Mel's got it right on. The pain it takes to go around the new triggers (like how to get a room for $0 AND not trigger a 2 day trip) isn't worth it.
The only extenuating criterium I know of now that they are taking into account is the number of actual trips-- that is, if you keep the # of REAL trips high (multiple per month) and your total coin in is proportionaly high (NOT the new ADT), they will take that data into account when considering letting you (ha!) be a sachem... In other words, if you make only a few actual visits (like 1or 2 per month), it doesn't matter at all how much you play. In fact, it seems that is exactly the not-so-hidden intent of the new software's algorithms! If you don't play often enough, you can't be a sachem unless you lose real BIG-- no matter your coin-in. It's frankly amazing... I've never been to another casino where $250K CI /day (on none-zero theo games) got you nothing (unless you get barred)-- and I've been to a lot of casinos.

What's the point of going then if you are can't do those things if you are not playing heavy?? Four us it is a round trip of 3 1/2 hrs just to play a little with nothing else.
