    I hope that’s not a sexual saying that I’m not familiar with…

    Wow, all the airport shuttles were backed up, at least 3 shuttle loads for every company to clear out the queue! Apparently the airport was shut down for a bit or something, so I guess it all started backing up.

    Anyway, almost to my car. Should be home around 10:30, only 1.5 hours later than I expected. :(

    Made it home! Will grab photos of all my loot, post final stats, etc tomorrow. But just to record it, going to bed with 1885918 TC.

    For now, the panda must sleep.

    thought there was something more to it.. like blow air from some location while making sounds, etc... but I'm all for cheap laughs.

    And yes - I'm gonna ask one of my Tesla owning friends to see it they can test out this feature for me.

    BTW - what brings you into Vegas again on 10/3?

    It was down to 71%. But I did keep checking on it, and turning on sentry mode. I left sentry mode on for all of Sunday, which caused the majority of the drain. Overall, very impressed with the battery!

    I did give one chocolate bar away already.

    I'm excited to try the white chocolate. But this is a multicultural chocolate household! My girlfriend should be bringing me back some Swedish chocolate lol

    You know, if you’d come when I’m there next month I’d happily give you some Belgian chocolate!

    We have great chocolate!

    Final stats time! 5k Accelerator bonus just posted as I was typing this up, so we're officially "done" with stats.

    Ending MGM tier credits: 1890918
    MGM tier credits earned: 51439
    MGM tier credits from bonuses: 15,000
    MGM tier credits from gambling: 36,439
    Theo: $4554
    Coin in: 152,009.23

    This was my lowest theo trip of the year. Farewell, good offers!

    Final bankroll is $4960, plus $3.29 in TITOs. So a total loss, including tips, of $1796.84 :(

    This makes my YTD loss above $10k again, sadly.

    upload_2024-9-16_8-56-36.png

    My coin in for the year is $2,291,006.95, and my MGM win/loss is showing I'm a net winner, somehow. :mad: Looks like my table game losses aren't recorded, ugh. That was on me for not asking before I left.

    You can see my trip theo has really been dropping off a cliff lately:
    upload_2024-9-16_9-4-43.png

    Hopefully my trip in October can go better! I think a 10k theo trip might be possible since it's a much longer trip.

    Solution: Come to Colorado instead.

    I am surprised that anyone with 1,890,918 tier credits is only at $10k loss. You need to market your gambling strategy!!!:nworthy:
