    I'll second that! My February bonus was a very pleasant surprise so I'm off to a good start this year. This one, at least, is providing a few chuckles here, if nothing else!

    I have to hit only 1700 to get bonus 500, but even that's probably out of reach.

    I was excited about this promotion thinking I could weasel a trip to Vegas or bossier city but then I opened mine this morning and what?

    83,400 TC to get 500 TC? Surely there is a mistake until I checked the board and see everyone else got this wonderful opportunity as well.

    April Fools prank?

    Everybody's bonus is 500?

    Lol, I want to see someone whose offer says 150,000 to get 500.

    The promo blurb said your target was somehow based on your play the last 12 months.

    My target (8,500) seems to line up with getting me to a little over 15,000.

    I'm at 6,600 for the year, so I'm short of Platinum, but I'll be over Platinum when the QFR TCs get posted. And I'll make 15,000 on my July trip.

    Is anybody seeing their target tied to either maintaining their current or getting to the next highest tier level? These 30,000, 80,000 targets are ridonk.

    If this came out on April 1st I would have really thought it was an April Fools joke.
    This is the most ridiculous promotion I have ever seen.
    If I earn 4,500 I get 500 TC'S--absolutely stupid in my opinion and I am sure CET is going to get lots and lots of negative feedback on this one.
    Better not to offer anything than what they did

    This isnt even an enticing promotion for low TC earners. I was planning on giving CET all my gaming on my upcoming trip but this pathetic promo will be pushing my money to MLife

    I need to earn over 10,000 TC in a month in order to get 500 TC bonus. Wow, nice promotion.
    I don't see the target tied to anything. Probably based on your past 12 months play level, as someone said above.
    500 TC to me is exactly worth 0 cent.

    My goal is 5600 to earn 500 TC. Not sure how they come up with each person's goal. I have never earned anywhere near 5000 in one month unless you count other promotions. Definitely not worth it!

    I also read in the promo email where it would be based on last 12 months play.

    I barely reached Seven Stars in December so my AVERAGED play would be 150,000/12=12,500 a month but that was built on promos & daily bonuses.

    How they thought a 33,000 month would ever be enticing to get 500 is:mad:

    Same here I made mine in December but that is getting the bonuses for 2500 and 5000 TC days. I am off to a good start this year due to the Feb bonus and 2017 4th quarter bonus but not based on my base play. My April goal of 83,400 is probably the same as my 12 month base point total.

    I have to laugh at folks trying to use logic and common sense to figure out how the target was arrived at.

    The whole thing is totally lacking in logic or common sense. LOL!

    (all in jest - not picking on anyone)

    Looking forward to what May has in store....

    QforR and 2x TC February were quite nice. Maybe something more along those lines, CET?

    February bonus and the 4th quarter 2017 bonuses were great for me. QFR got most of the Vegas and bossier city badges. Something like those would be good.

    i think it would have been more funny if they said you need to earn 1,000,000 Tier Credits for 1 Reward Credit Bonus!

    I have to earn 600 tier credits to get 500. Does that mean I win? ;)

    Yup that's pretty much what they're saying!!! Can't believe they're not counting the bonuses either....

    Received our offer via e-mail this a.m. We average about 1,000 tier credits per visit as my bride and I both play on her card. Our average is such in that I was lucky at Harrah's on a couple occasions. Thus our average tier credits earned was artificially inflated. We play in AC and I am directing my ire toward that end. We used to receive two buffets for two twice a month. Then in March they reduced us to one buffet or a 25.00 dining credit. Our host adjusted it back it up. Now they have offered 25.00 in reward credits once from the first to the fifteenth, and again from the sixteenth to the end of the month. They offered a promotion if we earn 9,000 tier credits in the month of April for 500 tier credits. We have already locked in Diamond due to previous promotions so they can kiss my A**. Nine thousand reward credits at $ 5.00 a point would require us to push $ 45,000. through the machines in APRIL. Not in this lifetime. Sounds like the deal Tom Sawyer had with Huck Finn to paint the fence. Sorry for the rant, go fast and win. AL C.

    As someone awarded a law degree from a pretty decent law school, I stopped being concerned when I read "...detrimental to the best interest of the offer..." as the offer isn't a legal entity and therefore doesn't have any interests, best or otherwise. Whoever wrote Term & Condition #24 should ask their law school for their money back... it's probably the same school from which whoever came up with this insulting promotion got their marketing degree.
