Hi Folks:

Just playing "Two Towers" tonight at the Tropicana in Atlantic City. What a pleasure that game is to play. I was betting 40-cents and 80-cents on a 1-cent machine ... and it was a lot of fun! Lots of miles ... lots of bonuses ... and the WILD TREE and RING power spins delivered! Such a great time!

Hi, My wife and I played "The Two Towers" last night in C.C. Colorado. We had great fun. We had to wait about 40 mins. Now we're back on player's life to earn more miles.

Played last night in the SOO, MI. Took 3 hours but got the 11 miles and now only 60 to go to finish TWO TOWERS Closing cottage so I won't be back up that way for a while I hope the casino's closer to home get one so I can finish it before the new game come out...

Reached mile 280 and the game is over....

Nice to meet you Shamus, we had a nice time at the M&G.

Enjoy the rest of your trip.

Spent my weekend in Reno and Tahoe. I played Two Towers a lot both in and out of Caesar properties. It may have been just a coincidence, but both my wife and I noticed I gained more of everything while using my Total Rewards card. I know they auto log you in and claim to increase bonuses based on your tier score. I picked up more miles in the last two days via machine play than I've picked up in the last six months. Things like 3 power spins in a row, 3 miles in a row, etc. My next trip will be in November. Staying in Tahoe for a couple of nights, so I'll concentrate on LOTR at Harrah's and Harvey's. Just for the Shamus style research, of course. Also, finally broke through and had a $50+ bonus round with minimum bet (Gandolf's Fireworks).

onroe11: Which casino did you play LOTR in??? Was that Cripple Creek, or Central City/Black Hawk? I have friends in CO/Denver area, and we will go to the casino anytime I am over there. Great to hear from someone in Colorado. LOTR is such fun!!

Hi daddywowwow:

I always love research in the "slot sciences" area !!!

Hi Penny:

Well ... it was great to meet you as well!! What a fun time. I hope we have a chance to meet again soon. It was an extra exciting time for you ... your win was massive!!! Does everyone on Player's Life know?? Of course ... the picture will be extracted from your phone!

PS - Congrats on "Lord of the Rings". I will assume ... if there is a sequel ... any additional miles would could toward a third installment. Maybe we will find out something at the G2E ...

What is the story with the leaderboard's "Race to the Two Towers" that shows the top leader being at 279 miles? I finished the map, and am at 303 or something, and I know many are farther along than me.

I am disappointed every time the voice announces 'Mile awarded' except that I hope hope hope that WMS will SOON release "Return of the King" sequel as is advertised on the slot's screen. Otherwise I wish that once the map is completed the miles awarded would be in some special bonus or game feature instead.

Where did you hear this (that Total Rewards increases bonuses based on tier score)? I don't think this is factual. The only perk I know of is that you are automatically logged in by using your TR card. Shamus? Anyone? What is the truth here, I would love to know if my tier status impacts these slots!
