tjatczak Posted January 10, 2017 #1 Share Posted January 10, 2017 Several questions for those of you that have participated in/organized a slot pull on Royal Caribbean... 1. Have you ever contacted the Casino host or manager to "schedule" a time for the event or to ask for anything from the casino to use as bonus prizes :eek:or ??? 2. We are cruising the Freedom on March 26 - how would I go about making a contact with the Casino ahead of time ? 3. Any other suggestions or tips for a successful Slot Pull ? Thanks for your help:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for your help:) I just went and saw the casino host the morning of day 2 when it's quiet and they have time to talk. Tell them you're doing a cruise critic slot pull on [day and time] and ask do they have any prizes they can support you with We got some tshirts and key rings Edited January 10, 2017 by BekkaW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rt1092 Posted January 10, 2017 #3 Share Posted January 10, 2017 Bring along some index cards. When the people sign up give them a number. It makes it easier to call them when it's their turn to pull. you won't have worry about pronouncing names wrong, plus they will know when their turn is approaching and make their way towards the machine. Also if the casino host gives you enough goodies you can raffle the extras off by tearing the cards in half and numbering each half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sellwingri Posted January 10, 2017 #4 Share Posted January 10, 2017 If you are given "stuff" from the Casino Manager/Host, it's a great idea to award it to those who had the largest one pull win. Makes it more exciting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LAcruiser2000 Posted January 10, 2017 #5 Share Posted January 10, 2017 When a slot pull is organized, is it typically done immediately following the Meet & Greet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarea Posted January 10, 2017 #6 Share Posted January 10, 2017 When a slot pull is organized, is it typically done immediately following the Meet & Greet? Tht's been our experience, as you've got everyone gathered together. However, sometimes there's a conflict with the cabin crawl folks, so that does not always work.

squiffynimrod Posted January 10, 2017 #7 Share Posted January 10, 2017 On our Allure cruise next week we talked about a slot pull, but changed it to a roulette spin as there was more interest in doing that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IBookHePays Posted January 10, 2017 #8 Share Posted January 10, 2017 I organized one that had maybe 20 or so people. Since our M&M was not even scheduled til day 4 (!), we had it on the first sea day at 11am. We had a separate sign up sheet on Cruise Critic before the cruise. Although I did not ask for prizes. I did notify the casino manager after boarding, and said we would be using the Wheel of Fortune machine. I got there early to put a sign on it, and the manager showed up with some ship goodies (tshirts, magnets, free slot pulls coupons, etc.) and we raffled them off after our big win! Ok, our big break even! :p It's a lot of fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maryjaden Posted January 11, 2017 #10 Share Posted January 11, 2017 We did ours on a sea day in the morning. It's usually quieter in the casino then. Met with the casino host earlier when he wasn't busy to let him know and he gave everyone a T-shirt. We also used the Wheel of Fortune machine. We like to use names because you it's hard to cheer for someone spinning if you don't know their name. It would would kinda funny cheering "go, number 2" instead of "Go, Susie"....lo!
