    I just got back from Vegas and overall had a great time. I actually made a little money gambling (by little. I mean buying a diet coke from a vending machine would blow most of my winnings)! However, the worst part of the trip was my extremely poor decision to attend the GGWU event on the last day. I waited in line over 2 hours to check out (they really should have had a sign over the door that read; "Abandon all hope ye who enter here").

    Actually, I showed up on the last morning to redeem the last of my points. I had done the heaviest shopping the previous day. Didn't want to let that last night of GGWU points go to waste.

    Damn, what time were you there? We checked out on the last day (12/4) around 530pm, half hour before it closed. No wait at all, we are not 7* either...

    I was there early to mid afternoon as well. They said that the system crashed at least three times that day due to heavy demand,
