    Hello all! Hope everyone is well.

    Been with my new girlfriend a year now. I can still say it's new right? Need her to experience Vegas and I'm looking at going in October so I can get us tickets to the Drake and Migos gig at MGM. Don't suppose we have many Drake and Migos fans on this board? :D

    Cosmo stopped my offers despite me staying their twice when they revamped their system about 18 months ago. Wynn/Encore are still as regular as ever though. (3 Nights and $225 Resort Credit). I'm thinking of using that comp Tuesday to Thursday, preferred rate Friday/Saturday and then treating us to a Cosmo suite Sunday/Monday. I'll email in advance and see if Cosmo want to help me out.

    My issue is I want to go 2nd October and the current Wynn offer ends 2nd October. They won't discuss it by email and I'm not motivated enough to call them just yet but I will soon.

    Going to get us both hooked up to MyVegas and see what we can do in that period. I won't have my usual budget so going to use it as an excuse to do lots of things I didn't do the last couple of times.

    I better make sure no-one in my house knows them two are in town or I'll never hear the end of it :D
    :A Your Always in my heart, you never ever will be forgotten-9/9/14:heart2:

    Hi guys I haven't been on here for quite a while...didn't think we would be going to Vegas this year( first time we would have missed since 2008) however we have just booked for November as its OH's big birthday and where else could he possibly celebrate than our favourite place!! I play myvegas through photon/Facebook there are newer apps but I am having real problems getting my old account to sync with a new one and I don't want to lose my 500+gold coins ...I have tried a few times to log in on Facebook through the new app but it just keeps sending me back to the log in page.Its not really a problem if I can't use the new app ( hate myvegas) but it is really frustrating me so any advice would be great .

    Hey - I'm going to Vegas in a couple of weeks and just tried to log on to MyVegas today for the first time in ages on Facebook, I couldn't do it either. I wonder if they're doing some repair work.

    I did try with the mobile app and that seems to work, but I've noticed that they've got rid of ALL the buffet rewards! :mad: I've got over 60,000 LP and these are the only things I buy (well, since they got rid of the Cirque rewards too). I'm sure the last time I looked they still had them. It's such a shame, they've gradually been whittling away all the good rewards from the game, but this is the last straw. Bye bye MyVegas, it was nice knowing you.

    Really?! Maybe they are freezing me out because I've used too many or something! I can't see them on MyKonami or the MyVegas app, the other rewards show up fine. I'll try the Facebook desktop at home and see if it works there, but just double-checked the others and they are not showing. Will get in touch with Support I think.

    Hi, we are going to las vegas for the first time the beginning of July. :j

    We are really excited and im trying to work out what activites to do and when- im probably too organised in that respect!

    Im worried with the recent weather reports that the heat is going to be too much. Ive read the usual of drinking water, stay indoors, go in the casinos but is the weather going to be a real problem getting about?
    There are lots of things outside that we want to see like the fountains, paris etc and i assume walking will be the best thing around these but will it mean being outside is going to be too much?

    We also have the go card so i want to make sure its money worthy so we will be seeing a few things. Should i be planning on doing things in the morning as ive read the temperature gets hotter towards the afternoon?

    We really want to go to the LAS sign, so should i plan to do this in the morning? Im going to do the bus rather than walk from the mandalay because of the heat is that a good idea?

    also we will be flying from manchester (9am) and travelling up the night before from south wales and staying in a hotel close to manchester airport.
    The flight will land in Las vegas 12pm local time (uk time 8pm) realistically how long will we be able to stay up in Las vegas on that first day? Im planning on having a sleep on the plane but i know it doesnt always end up that way. Im trying to figure out what to do on the monday, how has everyone else coped?

    sorry for all the questions!! thanks for any advice.

    It will be very hot so plan ahead where you want to go. Everything on the strip looks so close when you're on it but in reality, in the heat you will be walking a lot. As with most holidays avoid the peak hours outside 1100-1600 especially if you burn easily. Perhaps go to the malls, gamble or go for a meal. The temperature never really drops, its 3am there now and still 29 degrees.

    Where are you staying? Make sure to sign up to MLIFE and total rewards to use when you gamble, as you are likely to get free rooms etc even on minimal play.

    Total rewards currently have a small bonus going at the moment for new sign ups.
    500 tier credits when you sign up through a link. If anyone wants one let me know and will send you my link. I also get 500 tier credits. (you need 5,000 to get to Platinum status) Reasonably achievable with spend and gambling.

    You must be a new member, register and collect your card at the casino

    PM me if you would like the link
