The Easy Vegas thread

If you're wondering why I'm not commenting on your posts, there you go.
Best if you stay in your safespace. Wouldn't want to interrupt your thought process while you're finishing up your manifesto.
Quote: michael99000Alright guys , let’s keep all this back n forth bickering and bashing where it belongs , the loan refinancing thread.
Just discussing the content of one of the most weird sites on the internet. After all it is the title of the thread.
PS- I'm liking how the WoV has been turned into the Bluejay self promotion channel. Just trying to do my part in keeping those sites getting the attention they deserve.
No, BBB, I haven't blocked any mods (or former mods).Quote: beachbumbabsToo bad, MBJ. Axelwolf actually liked your theme song. Of course, you may have me blocked too, idk.
Glad to hear one of my critics likes the song.
LOL. But what back and forth? I don't see the posts, so I don't engage. Nips back-and-forth in the bud.Quote: michael99000Alright guys , let’s keep all this back n forth bickering and bashing where it belongs , the loan refinancing thread.
Actually, no, I didn't like his theme song...it was terrible. Perhaps not the song itself.... It was the strange cut off and then adding the name of the website via his(?) voice like he did. It just didn't flow well and it seemed very cheesey and unprofessional. Are website theme songs even a thing nowadays? That just seems so early 2000''sQuote: beachbumbabsQuote: MichaelBluejayWhat the forum looks like for me:

FYI. IMHO, the name he had was a much better name than Easy Vegas.
If you don't want any criticism perhaps don't tout stuff or ask how people feel about it, or whatever.
Not sure why he blocked me, I didn't say anything all that offensive to him. (?)
I have asked him legitimate questions in the past and added legit opinions. .
Perhaps he was all mad about me making fun of the all the blocking he was doing. I was having fun making a joke. If people don't have a sense of humor, or they are easily offended or get triggered easy I prefer they block me, because, I don't care to deal with uptight, ridged or humorless people.
Perhaps he didn't like the fact that I asked him what evidence he had when he indicated, it's rare to find an online casino with gaffed games. When in fact, the very casino he is advising so proudly was proven to host gaffed games not too long ago.
I just wonder what kind of personality, ego and mind-set one must have to go around blocking anyone you don't agree with and is critical of you. I guess if he's here purely for business reasons I can see how that might make sense, however, it would probably be better to kill people with kindnesses or just ignore them if that doesn't work. Telling people they are blocked just makes the situation worst. It shows they are able to get under his skin and makes it tempting for others to do the same.
Congratulations to Max for “Post of the History of WoV”.

It's exhausting reading the whole
thing. One thing I don't feel after
it's read is, hey, I want to hang with
this guy. Reminds me of the Cliff
Claven character on Cheers.
I think he left off of his list of
endless accomplishments the
time he let a little old lady
cut in front of him at Walmart,
and when he rescued the
neighbors cat when he was 12.
The only thing we have in
common is we were both in
debate in HS.
He won't read this, he tried to
preach to me years ago, I balked
and he has me blocked forever.
He's that guy..
I wonder how upset he would be? I assume the amount of clicks and revenue it would bring in would be the determining factor.

Item 10 - Cheap Eats
"On the way to and from my room I frequently find leftover food trays in the hallways with items that are nearly completely unmolested. Last night I found some toast, hash browns, ketchup bottles, celery sticks (still completely encased in plastic wrap), 95% of a waffle, and a completely full, huge carafe of orange juice".
But to each his own.
I was downtown after a matinee of "The Book of Mormon" yesterday, sitting at an outdoor pub, and an individual asked me for some money. I said "Sorry, No" and he moved on. But he was back later to finish a beer that someone had left on a table near the railing. Didn't affect me, so "don't make me no nevermind".
I do think there is good info on the site. I have never taken the bus from the airport to the Strip, but will consider it, especially if I am traveling by myself.

To be fair, I guess grazing in your hotel's hallways is a step up from rummaging thru their dumpster out back. For more information see https://easy.vegas/

If you do this, what does that say
about your self image. I would
have to be pretty far down the
poverty line before I started
eating garbage others have put
in the hallway to be thrown away.
I think more highly of myself than
that.

I always make it a point to lick any toast I don’t plan on eating.
Now THAT's funny.Quote: michael99000I always make it a point to lick any toast I don’t plan on eating.
Anyhowz, as with any website, you use what helps you, and you skip what doesn't. I had some members here pegged as "room service tray" afficionados based on their posts. You know who you are ( methinks thou doth protest too much ).
In other news, I just rewrote the Betting Systems article from scratch.
I immediately thought of Michael blue jay.
The Wizard has witnessed my scavenging first-hand, by the way.
Quote: MichaelBluejayWell then, I'm in good company. :)
The Wizard has witnessed my scavenging first-hand, by the way.
So he was there in the hallway
of Circus Circus while you were
on your hands and knees dining
on thrown out fries and the half
a hot dog left on a plate? Video
please..
They do that at the dump in Manila:
The playground of the rich and famous produced some amazing finds. By the mid 80s, it was so popular they started restricting entrance to only two days a week for scavenging.
Best thing I found there was a plaque given to a pretty famous documentary film maker. Evidently, the lifetime achievement award from the Sag Harbor Film Festival wasn't worth taking home for him. It made a nice conversation piece for a few years until I traded it for a Don Mattingly bat.
On the film award, it reminds me that I donated my advocacy award plaque from Bicycle Texas to the local thrift store. It was a thick, square piece of wood with a chainring mounted to it flat, and wording inside the chainring. I figured someone might want to sand over the letters and repurpose it somehow, like as an art piece.
Quote: billryanWhen I was in college, if I was home during the summer, we would regularly scavenge at the South Hampton town dump.
We've all dump dived, but did you eat
there, that's the question. Did you
make a sandwich from the stale
bread and green bologna..

The most popular article: List of Vegas Casinos
Per your list of Vegas casinos, since re-opening the Casino Royale is slots only.
And some casinos are closed completely. I don't remove them from the casinos list merely because they're not currently operating. The page is not a list of "What Casinos Are Currently Dealing Table Games", it's a "List of Las Vegas Casinos." BTW, your own review of the Casino Royale says it has table games, with no qualifier.Quote: WizardPer your list of Vegas casinos, since re-opening the Casino Royale is slots only.

You state on your page, "I define "casino" as having table games, not just slots/video poker."
My reviews are considered to be a point-in-time, as opposed to striving to be up-to-date. However, I'll make a footnote of that about my review, as long as you bring it up.

Yes, I say that "I define "casino" as having table games, not just slots/video poker." That doesn't mean that a casino ceases to be a casino just because its table games are temporarily closed. Even prior to COVID-19, some tiny casinos shut their few table games down overnight. In some states grocery stores can't sell certain items on Sundays. And recently ALL of the casinos in my list were shut down; they didn't stop being "casinos", they stopped being "open". I wouldn't remove each and every shutdown casino from my "List of Vegas Casinos" just because you couldn't actually play table games (or anything else) there.
I believe the Casino Royale removal of table games will be permanent, but only time will tell.
Quote: Easy Vegas*Slots-A-Fun doesn't have table games but I count it as a casino since it's on the strip. It's also the only one above w/o a hotel.
Also, where's the listing for Jokers Wild casino on the Boulder Strip? It has table games.
Maybe so, but I just called Casino Royale and they said they expect the removal of the table games to be temporary.Quote: DRichI believe the Casino Royale removal of table games will be permanent, but only time will tell.

Yes, I was suggesting the removal is permanent. It isn't just that the tables are closed, they are removed. I will be expecting that apology if they don't bring them back.

Taking the actual physical tables off of the casino floor seems pretty obvious. I'm taking the under on "Number of tables at the Casino Royale on 7/8/2021", whatever the number is. A prop bet to be sure, but I've already got "Mets, Knicks, Rangers OR Jets Win One League Title in My Lifetime." I'll be 68 tomorrow, so they better hurry up!

I have never known a casino to go slots-only and later reverse the decision. Granted, these are different times, but I am happy to put my money where my mouth is in wagering they are not back by any particular future date.
Since the table games have actually been removed (I trust you on that), I apologize now. I'm sorry I misunderstood you. I thought they had the tables but they just weren't open.Quote: WizardYes, I was suggesting the removal is permanent. It isn't just that the tables are closed, they are removed.

Gialmere is right, though, about the Slots-A-Fun exception: If it's on the strip, I count it as a casino, table games or not. I'm adding an asterisk that Casino Royale doesn't have table games.
In many ways, its still the same. Experience among managers varies. Rumors abound, MBAs lurk. Reporters and health inspectors are threatened by Lady Luck just as players are.Quote: WizardGranted, these are different times,

It’s a marginal case, but the Rio sold last year and is being leased back by Caesars.

I know circus circus in Reno became a slot parlor, and they are now again a full casino with tables. I think they only open them on weekends but it’s a start.
