Anyone else planning to do The Great Race to Rewards?

I found out (by visiting the TR booth at Caesars) that they CAN check on their computers
to see Where you played since the Promotion started.

You also Do NOT have to scan your card at each location (although I would anyway) since
the computer shows Where you played.
As long as you have One Tier point in 6 different areas, you will be credited for 6 for the Promo.

Found out I was only in 5 markets so far, so hoping to have 1 more before it ends Friday.
Fingers crossed.

CLV - thought I read it ended on October 3rd rather than Friday?

Does it end on the 3rd? I'm going to Rincon on Sat and have a friends card that I can swipe, but thought it ended Friday?

From the Harrahs Rincon website:

This Summer, the race is on! Earn up to 60,000 Reward Credits exploring the Total Rewards® casinos around the country! Swipe your Total Rewards card when you visit one of the 20 destinations July 1, 2011 – Sept. 30, 2011 to receive credits. Visit 3 destinations and receive 15,000 Reward Credits. Receive another 15,000 Reward Credits for each additional destination you visit.

I am just checking this because my friend played in Windsor before I swiped for her other places. My e mail says Friday 10.3.2011. So I am not sure when it ends or if it counts if you play and then swipe . I guess we will all find out keeping my fingers crossed

Ummmmmmm.......

Just the fact it says Friday Oct. 3, makes me think somethings amiss....cuz Oct 3 is a MONDAY. .

I hope it goes til MONDAY Oct. 3, for your sake

Yes that's what I meant the dates and days don't match another thing CET did wrong with this promo. I am hoping Monday so she can get her extra.

ADDENDUM: A couple of weeks ago I sent a letter to the one CZR employee I know by name. I told him, in roughly half a page, about the adventure I had doing this. Well, apparently the guy is pretty influential, since he got one of his VPs to reply to me. In a few words, his letter said, "Thanks for writing, glad you had a good time, we appreciate the feedback, hurry back." That was nice of them. I'll keep it in the file in case they do something silly like deny me my points.

Was at Harrahs Cherokee last night and asked at TR booth to be swiped for Great Race. No problem, she did it and I saw the screen for the Great Race appear on her monitor. So it must be going on until Monday, 10/3.
