Thanks Brats64. I put a few of those points in my email to him. Didn't think to add the bits about small claims court. I will do next time, if I get a reply from someone else.

Anyone played this and built up some loyalty points?

Just discovered it a few days ago, up to about 2000 loyalty points.

Anyone cashed in their points and used them in Vegas? Would be interesting to know.

Cheers

Quite a few people playing this, just be careful what you spend it on as you are now only allowed 3 spends within 90 days usage so better to save up for the larger items if you have time. The bad news is they keep changing the rules and normally for the worse.

We are not going until September so hope they dont close the game before then.

I currently have about 350,000 loyalty points. We redeemed for RM Seafood and Delights last trip. They worked well, although they have discontinued the RM Seafood offer, which is a shame.

For our next trip I have redeemed for Bellagio buffet and I'm trying to get a Nine Fine Irishmen $100 credit too, but am struggling at the moment. They only put 10 on each day, and I haven't got my timing right yet.

everyone's favourite CityCenter won't be CityCenter for much longer

http://www.vegastripping.com/news/blog/4893/exclusive-mgm-to-drop-citycenter-name/

At a meeting of employees today, Bobby Baldwin, CEO of CityCenter, announced that the name CityCenter is now depreciated and will be completely phased out over the coming year. Mr. Baldwin did not say whether a replacement name was planned.

It is unclear if the dissolution of the CityCenter name implies that the partnership between MGM Resorts International and Infinity World as CityCenter Land LLC is dissolving as well. Additionally, there is no replacement name planned.

With CityCenter Land LLC offloading 472 unsold CityCenter real estate units to LVT Owner LLC in December, there is no need for CCL LLC to continue using the CityCenter real estate brand.

CityCenter's 'city within a city' concept was brought to fruition by then COO Jim Murren. As the project neared completion, the real estate market collapsed and took with it CityCenter's financing, hopes and dreams. With almost zero residential occupancy, CityCenter was never able to find its footing as a live-work-play urban core as designed.

That's what happens when you build a casino on an ancient Native American burial ground. Or was that Aladdin? Or Sahara?

From LV4E site they renew the offers at 10am EST so 3.00pm over here.

I will be watching in 15 mins to see if that is true :-)

EDIT - seems its not true :-( refreshed every min but nothing by 3.10

Updated EDIT - They are now showing as available at 15.12 :-)

They do recharge MyVegas at 3pm our time, although today, the recharges went live at 3:11pm
i know as been watching!
The NYNY $75 flew within 1 min, other food stuff's stayed up showing 5 or 9 left for today, etc..
Didnt check rooms..
I got 72k LP after playing for 4 weeks now i think (or just under), got 479 FB friends, but as i keep reading, the game has changed alot, whereby losing your chip stack is all to common, and wanting you to buy chips is the main thing!
I am on level 54 at the mo, but find i can blow 20k on Jewels, get the spins and win 4k.... Others report it too..
Still, cant knock it despite how frustrating it is! as its all free!

I'm not going to vegas til May next year (2014) so I do hope that the game is still going then, if not then I guess I havent spent any cash so far, nothing ventured nothing gained.

Would be good to get a suite upgrade and maybe even show tickets or a few drinks etc.

that's good to know - 3pm our time was when my hubby managed to get a CC Steakhouse voucher a few weeks go, though that was dumb luck and not knowing to check at 3pm.

He has that, Criss Angel tickets (because we said we would never pay much for it) and Bellagio buffet..he is very proud of himself.
