  1. Like it or not, RCG is being loud and proud with its branding on X…Not sure if it’s new as I’ve never noticed this before
  2. Did you ask for two? I've asked for three, they brought out two and said IF I finish these two and still want a third they'd get me another
  3. You can have more than two but they generally don't bring out more than two at a time initially
  4. On the Beyond, with a sharpie in hand "Ms. Capt Kate, huge fan, would you mind autographing this Celebrity tote bag? <reaches inside the tote to pull out a plate> Would you also sign this plate I TOTALLY brought from home? Sign just under where it says Mast Grill" BOOM, just turned $14 into $41 🙃
  5. These things happen when you remove the auto-tips! I think the story is made up from X hoping to deter theft. If you're a thief, why steal ONLY a dozen plates/setups and leave your suitcase open when you leave? Then unless you're rude to your cabin attendant, I can't imagine many would bother to report it but how would they know for certain they're X's plates? Cabin attendants generally only eat in the crew mess hall with far less fancy plates and I'd be very surprised if any cabin attendant knows every every plate on X ship. While it would be unusual to bring plates onto a sailing, I don't think a porter carrying baggage on would care to remove them to put them in the naughty room
  6. I can't think of a time we've even taken gifts back, necklace, wallet, tote and even the crappy bubbly often in our room, we just leave it all behind. And to think between all our sailings we could be $67 richer 😅
  7. I can't believe someone would steal plates! I mean they could easily break and put you over the weight limit for airline baggage 😅
  8. WTH, so someone stole a USED towel to make an ENTIRE $25ish profit?
  9. If you hear back from them it would be much appreciated if you voice some displeasure for the SPINY tail lobster X serves compared to Carnivals and RCI's superior MAINE lobster
  10. Yes. Like most casinos they follow theo...I'll GPT Chat, I would recommend others do the same and if you don't understand something ask a chat bot: "Theo" stands for "Theoretical Loss," and it's a concept that casinos use to estimate how much money a player is likely to lose over time while playing their games. This helps casinos determine how much to reward players through their loyalty programs, like comp points, free rooms, meals, or other perks. Here's a simple breakdown of how casinos use Theo to rate players: 1 Betting Amount: Casinos track how much you're betting on each game, whether it's slot machines, table games, or any other form of gambling. 2 House Edge: Every casino game has a built-in advantage for the casino, known as the house edge. This is the statistical advantage that ensures the casino makes money in the long run. 3 Time Played: The longer you play, the more you're exposed to the house edge. Casinos take note of the amount of time you spend playing. 4 Game Choice: Different games have different house edges. Some games have a higher edge, meaning the casino expects you to lose more over time. 5 Average Bet Size: Casinos look at your average bet size per round. A higher average bet generally leads to higher potential losses. By combining these factors, the casino calculates your Theoretical Loss. This is an estimate of how much money they can expect you to lose based on your betting habits, the games you play, and how long you play. Remember, the Theo is just an estimate and doesn't guarantee actual losses or wins. It helps the casino determine how much value you're contributing to their business, which in turn influences the rewards and comps they offer you.
  11. Some other items of interest X branded used dinner plates Slippers Tote bags Credit card holders/Wallet Domino set with cards and wooden box
  12. Thanks. Also post #1 states their sailing is already over (lol). Well, if anyone reaches out to the Exec offices, be sure to "double down" on embarkation day by mentioning that the Elite HH could be extended to include embarkation day
  13. If you're still on board, try guest relations or the CC Host if you already haven't
  14. As I was saying before, cruise lines are trapped into offering single use bottles of water (whatever they're made out of) as they added it to the beverage packages and there will be massive backlash if they remove water from those packages. In a perfect world, cruise lines could offer you a $1 credit everytime you refill a water bottle but there's zero chance that would ever happen
  15. Have to remember the for-profit owner of this site is expedia who prefers you book tours
  16. I thought the same so I called the casino dept and asked, they said they upped the requirements but they're (obviously) lower if I play slots (lol)
  17. Their latest strategy is replacing live acts with DJs play top 40 music in the past decade
  18. Go to every show, try and stay for at least 10mins and if you don't like it, leave
  19. No one is transparent about the actual requirements that can change at any time and the other dynamic with all cruise lines is you can take a 3 night short cruise or 15 night long TA and they'll both have different requirements for the next free cruise. As it stands, on the tables about $25 bets for an average of an hour a night (can play 3.5 hours on two sea days if one prefers) does get you an inside room on X. On carnival in June, I was doing $50 bets an hour a night and that wasn't enough to qualify for any free rooms like it was in the past, only a % off
  20. Are you sure you LEAVE at 330 or is that the all aboard? FLL often has 330 all boards and 5pm departures but not always
  21. 1) Unlimited but you can be cut off if you get super drunk 2) You each receive one device, you can switch devices anytime, for example, if you wanted to go from a laptop to your phone. 3) Unlimited
  22. Did she post an actual screenshot or just said it? Don't need to personally see it but a screenshot holds a lot more weight than just a claim
