Added 10c Denom and Removed 1c and 2c Denoms from (1) 1c/2c/5c/25c 5 Play Multi-Strike : 99.73% NSUD, 99.54% JoB in non-smoking area

New: $1 3 Play : 99.69% SDB location not reported

A recent report says that $10 coin-in playing NSUD or $5 playing 8/5 BP yields one comp point. Tier points appear to be earned at one tenth the rate of comp points. For example, earning 100 comp points also yields 10 tier points.

Added to Database: (6) 5¢ 10-coin : 100.76% DW circular bank between the poker room and the little coffee bar.

Tier points and comp points accumulate very slowly on the circular bank of six 100% payback machines. Playing the 5c 10-coin games, it could take 24 hours to earn the 20 tier points needed for the free lunch buffet for new sign-ups.

Report from an Atlantis visitor: Atlantis is now watching VP players closely and if they think you are a "skilled player" they will not send you any offers.

New: $2 3 Play Prog : 99.58% TDB high limit area

Report from a vpFREE2 User: In March of 2012, the Atlantis casino in Reno reneged on its offer to us to allow us to redeem slot club points for cash to cover our airfare. We had done this a couple of times and after discussing it with host John Weinreich we had things in place for this trip. Using slot club points to cover airfare makes it totally worthwhile for us to get to a place like Reno. When we were checking out and ready to get our cash for points, there was some mumbo-jumbo about whether the points we were redeeming we accumulated on that trip or previously. Anyhow, it was clear, they told us we could redeem points for cash to cover our airfare, and when we were checking out told us we could not do that.

My mailed offers have decreased from $300 a month to just $50.
In addition - the earned comp rate on the machines I play have been greatly reduced in just the last month:

100 Play Slant-top in HL Room
7/13: $100CI = 34pts = .34% earned comps
8/19: $1000CI = 85pts = .085% earned comps

3L $2 Progressive Slant-top FP TDB in HL
7/14: $25CI = 16pts = .64% earned comps
8/19: $20CI = 3pts = .15% earned comps

My guess is that all/most of the vp has suffered the same downgrades.

The 100-play NSUD in the "cave tunnel" have been downgraded.
