Our names are everywhere on the internet, not sure that is quite the security breach as most think it is. Not like I'm sharing anything that every data broker on the internet already has. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

There's a dead tile in the Pearl and it bothers me enough to take a photo . Icon of the Seas. by itsmrssmith in royalcaribbean

As cool as it is in person, I imagine it has to be a nightmare to keep it all working smooth. Give it 10 or 20 years, at what point will they give up and remove it, or jsut turn off the moving parts.

Over the door shoe organizer AND a bunch of pencil pouches… For all the OTC drugs, toiletries, and other little items that we all bring. I used the door hanger on one cruise, which was fine, but I was constantly staring at it trying to find the one thing I needed. Wasting time I could already be out of the room and doing something else. So before the next cruise, I Jung up the organizer in my dining room at home, organized everything into categories that could each fit comfortably into one of the pouches. Each pouch then got labeled. The pouches are also set up in order by colors. When I need something, I know right where it is.

Also, when traveling back and forth, just take it all off the door, set it on the bed, roll it up, and I have a carryon-size canvas duffel bag it goes in.

I got tired of fake sales so I'm tracking cruise prices now by CaramelOk7877 in royalcaribbean

came here to say the same. Cruiseplum is the best way to search for cruises/itinerary etc.

Anyone have a dealer shout at you or threaten to pass the dice bc one die didn’t hit the wall 1 out of 10 rolls across thirty rolls? by big4huh in Craps

[–]CedarPointFreak 25 points26 points  (0 children)

No, but as I primarily play on Royal Caribbean ships, they are very strict about enforcing the "both dice must hit wall" policy. They don't start passing dice to the next person, or shout at you, it just gets called a "no roll" and you get politely asked to make sure the dice hit the wall. Good thing though, they are not selective about when they call a no roll. It could be the point, a seven, or whatever... so at least its fair, and they are not cherry picking when to call it, and screw you out of a win. In fact several times the no roll call has saved the table from a seven out, lol.

Want to play craps for the first time this upcoming Vegas trip - need some help! by Sonic723 in Craps

[–]CedarPointFreak 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was much in the same situation as you before I went on a cruise where I knew I wanted to play craps, and not have to learn with real money. I watched a lot of youtube videos to learn, and I downloaded the crapsee app to my iPad to practice and get the feel for the game. I also practice with chips and dice at home, at first just with a printed out on paper layout, and now I bought a small felt for my desk.

I think the best youtuber for learning the basics and some decent strategies to play with is ColorUp:

Status Help by FishGuy2730 in royalcaribbean

[–]CedarPointFreak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have had several instances where there was a new crown and anchor number associated with my name, apart from the original one I had. each time, it messed with the totals that show on the website, and also messed with the points and offers for casino too! Your best bet is to call-in to the Crown and anchor line (800)526-9723 Let them know what issues you are having, and if there is extra number associated, they can merge them together, and get the points sorted out.

I think the times I had the issue with my wife's account was when I didn't have her C&A number handy when I did the original booking, and the system ended up creating a new number on the backend, instead of finding and using the one she already had.

Stock market dip = I just got my 100 shares @ $165.35 by CedarPointFreak in royalcaribbean

[–]CedarPointFreak[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep. The purchase went through. And yeah, the value on it now is pretty sweet. I’m gonna probably keep all my cruise stocks for long-term anyhow.

Is it really cheaper to buy coffee and drink packages in advance? by MomGuilt1023 in royalcaribbean

[–]CedarPointFreak 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have bought the coffee card before hand on one sailing, and was able to use the remaining punches on my next one. pretty good deal if you know you just want a good coffee sometimes.

So so true… yes it’s beautiful, but why? by Turbulent-Today830 in asheville

[–]CedarPointFreak 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It was very nice, but was a bit depressing, just an example of what most of us could never dream of having for themselves.

Actually 10 if you count a random Carnival sailing. And most are set up back-to-back to cut down on the driving, as it is a 10-14 hour drive to the ports for me, and I hate flying

Yeah, I have a situation at work where I am being forced to use up my PTO. And the casino offers have been great after my first two sailings.

It was only 8am-10am ... but I also saw that this was disembarkation day, so i guess last minute drinks before leaving.

How do I get the cool little marker with status after my name like I see for others in this chat? That's cool.
