    Ditto...not my thing...hubby is playing though and while he likes this sort of thing normally even he's finding it a bit of a slog now..he's also not keen on adding loads of random people he does not actually know as friends to boost his earnings.

    You can add friends then put them in your facebook "restricted" list. They cannot view your profile or see any posts you make unless they are public posts.
    We have people making 4,000 loyalty points a day so rewards can be a lot easier than you would think....

    you should have a restriced list in facebook under the friends heading, when you add someone as a friend just add them to the list.

    There will be a new forum opening soon for the game, ill post when its ready ;)

    I love slots...love them.

    I just can't get excited about the MyVegas thing, sorry. It's not really proper slots, is it? Anyway, I understand why some people enjoy it, but it's not for me...as I said, my hubby usually likes stuff like this but he is now finding it boring. This is a man who would probably play Bejewelled 24/7 if me and society would let him...and he feels now like he's put in too much time with the MyVegas thing to just drop it now, but as soon as he gets us some Secret Garden tickets he's out.

    But I don't spend but a few minutes a week on Facebook as I kind of can't bear much more than that either...so...I'm kind of not to be trusted when it comes to stuff that is associated with Facebook.

    I'm sure that there are ways to make a good chunk of reward credits, just no interest from me...I guess that to me the time it takes to earn enough rewards for anything decent is time I'd rather spend another way...but I know some people who naturally spend a lot of time on Facebook anyway that would probably get some decent benefit without having to spend a lot more time on it than they already do.
    Does remembering a time that a certain degree of personal responsibility was more or less standard means that I am officially old?

    There are loads of people claiming rewards. I have claimed 2 so far the same as my wife.

    Sadly no laundry offers or back street hotels, just the MGM properties.

    Hardly play slots at all, I play table games

    I can play for a while for real but a virtual slot well !!!, I tried the myvegas playing 30,000 free credits a day, rewards up to 4000, I think thats it for me as i said

    I had never been on facebook until I tried the game, what rewards have you got and for how many hours play? be honest

    I love the Augustus Tower-last time I stayed there my friend flew in the day after me and they couldn't believe how nice the room was or how great the view was........... but their favourite thing.....The TV in the bathroom mirror LOL (actually it's mine too :D ) I think the reason I like both the Augustus Tower *and* the Orleans is neither involve endless treks through their casinos to get in and out or to get to food :)

    oh the telly in the bathroom mirror is pretty much on-par with the buttons that control the drapes and lights and DND light for me...super exciting!

    It reminds me of my second trip to Vegas (first we stayed at a Motel 6 or Super 8 or something) and calling my mom saying 'Mom, I am calling you from at telephone in the bathroom! IN THE BATHROOM! A PHONE!'

    The little things make me happy.

    I think you'll really like the Augustus Tower, photome...I would certainly be excited at the prospect of an upgrade but sure you will not be disappointed...like duchy, the location relative to the exit from the property is one of the bonuses with that particular tower.

    Our upcoming stay at Cosmo is our most expensive ever in terms of rate per night and duration (think Bellagio was more per night, but just one night). But by golly that terrace sounds so cool. not to mention the washer and dryer. ;)

    I think we're going to try GN in March, so will be interested to hear how you like it....we have also never stayed downtown but want to for one night to try it out.

    A little tip at CP. Phone down and ask housekeeping if you can have the turn down service every night, there is no charge. When you come back in there will be a robe on your newly made up bed with slippers at the foot. The TV will be on a soothing channel, and there will be some gold chocolate coins by the bed. towels will be refreshed to. Just leave a tip on the bed when you go out.
    The common law of business balance prohibits paying a little and getting a lot. If you deal with the lowest bidder, it is well to add something for the risk you run, and if you do that you will have enough to pay for something better.
