Sep, 2005 There is now only (1) $5 MG 3 play (9/6 JoB and 8/5 BP) in the Tower Slots Room.
Jun, 2005 (1) $1 9/6 JoB in Little Joe's VP Parlor, (1) $2 9/6 JoB in Little Joe's VP Parlor and the (8) 25c 8/5 BP in Little Joe's VP Parlor are MIA. On the positive side, there is a single $1 9/6 JoB in a bank of various vp machines in WWWest opposite the Mountain Bar. (Beware of a $1 8/5 JoB in the same bank.)
Jun, 2005 The progressives seemed set lower to start on $1 9/6 banks and dealt royal on .25 bonus triple play. I play only $1 9/6 single and triple play and the .25 8/5 BP progs. Cash back is .2% (confirmed from 2 recent trips). Can only be redeemed on return trip ( 90 days) No bounce back ( do not know what .15 in web page refers to) , but instead of old double days I get 2-4 days a month with a $$ reward ( players seem to get $20 - 15). For these games I got connection comps now @ .25% regardless of other activities. In the past Ballys AC would comp at 1% ( dont ask dont tell), but held back comps - taking into account $55+ for comped rooms, and maybe for CB also. But $5000 through on an overnight was enough - likely double that now. Though hosts would always comp me anything but gourmet even if my account was empty - used up from prior play/trip- now there are less hosts with much less discretionary freedom.
Apr, 2005 to 4000) Base Reward Credits in the year to get Platinum status and 10,000 to get Diamond status.
