Your exchange with Tech is graffiti; digital pollution. I’d like to keep this thread lean, clean, streamlined.
You can use the help. When you get a few responses the fresh air should be appreciated.

NB: I really just want to document my play here without tangential bs commentary. Please respect my wishes.
Too bad you couldn't take your own advice before slamming Vman in another forum. Now if you could stop posting your trip results in 6 different forums.

Sad Sunday. I won $30 on $30 FP. It took ninety minutes to hit a $37 quad. I won $25 table FP on an eight point hit. I returned for another session and went dollar for much of it. Net Day: -$250. 42 TCs. Determined to slash BR in half. This was a very poor plan. I got 2X TC multiplier, so they’ll add 42 TCs. I can’t afford to risk BR. Only solution is to halve it.

Spanning the town to bring you the constant variety of VP...the thrill of victory...and the agony of defeat...the human drama of VP competition... This is "FAA's Wide World of VP!" Welcome one and all. This thread's end date will be determined by my next Royal Flush. I hope for a brief shelf life indeed and that this wrinkle spurs some interest.        
Haven't you hit one, or two royals since you started this thread? Just asking.

Perfectly.   I enjoy your reports.  Your descriptions of the people around you and your feelings as you play are hilarious.  They chould be a movie or a TV show.  I can picture cigar man coming into the scene... 
Hmm...

Hilarious when I was wagering chump change. I'll have to revert to that and stay off the dollar machines, which I have no business being on in the first place. I'm bringing 80% less bankroll from now on, just like the old days. It's been my most painful month by far!
Maybe you should check prices for funny bones on Ebay.

And to take your own advice to stay off dollar machines.....

Sadly I missed the slam on the first read. You made me reread it again with this post. Thanks for pointing it out.

That 5600 penny Royal came while playing next to my g/f for fun in Vegas before ending the night. Of course, I mainly brought it up just because it was coincidentally the same number of credits as Wildman's recent Royal and the weird thing about 50/100 play STP Deuces. But I did have a net loss that night, so it was already spent! Whoops!

Sad Saturday. I won $43 on $25 Bally’s BP. I gave it back. Then I hit BP quad threes. But only a buck bet, so $40. I lost my $25 table FP on ten to seven craps. Harrah’s lunch. I won $8 there. Back at Bally’s, -$97. Net Day: -$70. I blew past logic chasing losses.

Successful Sunday. I won $22 on $25 Bally’s JOB FP. After losing $10, I slid over and played for 75 minutes. I finally hit a max quad. 17 TCs, $850 coin in, 600 hands. I was losing hope. It took me down a -$60 ride just before. I lost my $25 table FP on a five to craps. Hooters lunch. Nice healthy RT walk. Net Day: +$85. I struck a Heisman pose in front of a The Big Game display and sped out of town.
