An impressive, thoroughly common-sense response ... appreciated :)

While there may be a time element in the marketing formula to determine your worth to the casino everything comes down to machine theoretical and amount of coin-in to determine your marketing value. Whether that's Average Daily Theoretical, Market Daily Value, Earnings Potential, or whatever. If you have a low market value you won't get much back in the mail. That said, some casinos "might" send you some discounted or free room offers simply for being a new customer, but the first time you use them and give virtually no play you can bet your offers will not be repeated. This is why if you're going to give a casino a heavy play the best day to do it is right when you sign up for your player card. You'll seldom ever have a higher marketing profile than on that day. This may be what is creating the illusion that a penny player giving very light action, even on a high theo machine, is somehow getting the best of the casino. Perhaps on a percentage basis they are, but in terms of actual value it's costing the casino almost nothing. The biggest drain of a penny player such as what you describe is via free drinks and electricity....not from anything they might get back of value from marketing.
In the end it still comes down to doing the things that maximize your marketing profile according to the computer algorithms of that casino. Those things are fairly well known...concentrating your play into as few days as possible and not doing anything to extend or create a trip on non-play days are the two biggies.
