Sam's Progressive Request

For the last month or so, the wife and I had been chasing the dealt royal on the 11 machine bank 3-play a couple rows in from the valet entrance. No, it was not us that hit it, but it did go down last night around 7ish somewhere around 27k. When we arrived this morning and did our reconnoiter of the five or six different progressives that we play, the 4860 3 royal total was still the best play. As I was ready to sit down and play, I noticed that the B line royal on one of the machines, the one I was going to play, apparently did not reset properly after the big hit, so I called over one of the change people to power it down and reboot to reset it correctly. While she was doing this, we were chatting and she told me that a local named Shirley had gotten the big early Christmas present the night before. Perhaps she is a member. Anyway, we went about doing our play, and about an hour or so into it, I noticed something that has always been a bad sign in a casino: A suit walking around our bank with a clipboard making notes. Now this could just be paperwork they have to do because of the B line royal reset on my machine, but my paranoia is raising it's ugly head again as I remind myself that my partner and I have had nine rather nice size royals on this bank in the past five weeks. I couple this with the fact that the first week of Sept., they removed the two highest return games in the building that we had done well on for quite some time. After a month or so on SA Multistrike, they went in and "fixed" that too. Anyway, since we wont be there for a couple of days, if anyone happens to play tomorrow on 6X points, and you happen to notice that they "fix" something on this bank, could you please post. Thanks.

The bank of progressives appeared to be normal about noon time today (Dec 13) except one of the middle machines had the wrong value for the middle progressive. It was around $1200+ while the overhead sign and several of the other machines I checked had this progressive at around $1600+. I left after about 20 minutes of play when the bottom progressive was hit for $1942.
