Tuscany - Ellis Island deal is rumored to be dead. Contrary to their DEC announcement, Tuscany pays Cashback AND comps.

LVSun: Ellis Island, Tuscany in deal

Tuscany has just mailed out notification that you can get Cashback or comps beginning Dec 15. $1 of coin-in will equal 1 point, and 5000 points can be exchanged for a $5 free play ticket or $5 in comps. They will be having double points from Dec 15 - 21.

I was at the Tuscany this morning and all the 10/7 DB at the center bar have been downgraded to 9/7. The quarters are progressive. These were the machines on the west side of the bar. All the machines on the east side were out of service (although if I recall, these were not full pay anyway).

The bank of eight 25c/50c/$1 10/7 double bonus uprights near the front door have been downgraded to 9/7. Double bonus at the Sports Bar has also been downgraded. And the bank of eight 25c/50c/$1 10/6 double double bonus slant-tops by the front door are now 9/6. The 100% signs above all these have been removed. I did not detect any other changes.

A report that most of the $1 10/7 DBs in Tuscany's multigames have been shorted (9/7).
