I periodically tire of preparing the "Guess the casino" posts, and think about killing the feature. It gets repetitious, people don't comment on it, it takes time to do, and sometimes I just think, "Meh, let it go." But then something comes over me and I buck up and do another batch of them.
Today was one of those days. So, after putting in a marathon session of pasting up GTC posts in advance, fans of the series (all three of you) can now rest assured that your game is safe for the time being. No matter what happens to me (run over by bus, stabbed by angry tourist whose aces got cracked, etc.), "Guess the casino" will continue to automagically appear daily at least through November 3.
After that, we'll see.

Thanks Grump! Keep it up, I love the GTC posts.
Well, I must be one of the "three" fans. I enjoy your "Guess the casino" posts, it is one of the distinguishing features of your blog. Thank you for taking time to post them.
Keep them going. I like them along with the power of the 2-4 posts and enforcement of the rules.
Maybe you can change it up a bit by adding a poll to allow readers to pick which casino they think it is?
Uh-oh... the 4th comment. Grump underestimated the strength of his silent kibitzers....
I may not comment on the GtC posts, but as somebody who's been to Las Vegas only twice, it is interesting to see what is there, and the few items I do recognize.
I like 'em. Thanks for posting them.
Sorry, apologies for not commenting on GTC before. I like the posts a lot (especially when I successfully guess a casino I haven't been in, which is most of them). My only two minor suggestions would be more variety (which may require a delay, which I'm okay with and will give you a break; I was able to guess at least 3 Aria photos without ever having been there) and more comments from you (especially, what motivated you to take the photo?).
Thanks!
Remember, all your readers don't live in Vegas, so we can't often comment with a guess, but that doesn't mean we aren't interested. Keep it up...
Seventh!
Thank you for all the effort you put into this website/blog.
I visit you blog every day as part of my routine.
I appreciate the effort you put into Writing. I feel it is some of the best and most consistent of any blog written. Yes I like the "Guess the casino"
Keep up the good work.
Your GtC posts are a big reason for visiting every day. They're fun and unique. That, and your eloquent musings on the poker climate, rules violations, your unending affection for Cardgrrl and reverence for the mighty deuce-four make this a daily read. I realize this blog takes time and creativity to continue, but your efforts are appreciated by many. So even if we don't post in the comments section, know that we're here reading. Thanks, Grump!
I LOVE the GTC. I've been enough times that I guess some right, have actually stood where you took a pic from, or now want to go to check out a casino (Orleans).
Ugh...came to the comments hoping not to see a bunch of "keep them going" posts. Maybe you only posted the 7 pro posts and not the 4261 "kiil the feature" ones. I can dream.
Doesn't bother me too much to just bypass them, but we're at #620 now. Seems like they've overstayed their welcome. My excitement when my reader tells me you have two fresh posts gets doused when I see a couple posts with pictures of places I've never seen, as many of us live our "move to Vegas to rind out a living" dreams through you.
