I didn't get this email myself but it's interesting. I'm seeing a trend of them doing different things to try to bring actual revenue in this year from things other than gambling.

Another one that just started is that if you use your reward credits you lose the discounts they used to give for tiers- discounts are cash/credit only.

I don't know if it's yet at all properties, but at Ak-Chin Diamond got $9 off the buffet, Platinum $6, etc- that is gone now unless you actually pay for it.

Same with the Quest for Rewards- giving badges off of spending actual money there not just gambling.
