I had a great time at the GPWA events, and at CAC. It was great to put some faces to names.
To me the CAC is ridiculously expensive for the affiliates. The cost of a trip to Vegas plus $700 for the CAC is at least $2,000. Many affiliates don't make that in a month. Make the casinos pay more, and let the affiliates in for $50 or so. Most of the casino people I spoke to agreed with me. Well they have the power! Set up your own event. We will come. The GPWA events proved that.
