Thank You / World Travel 69 Map / My contribution via google docs
It has taken me 6 weeks but I have managed to read through this entire thread from start to finish. A big thank you for all the regular posters of factual reports here. There was obviously a whole lot of rubbish in there as well but that's par for the course on these types of forums. That ChirsDoug (I forget the name exactly) character was especially annoying LOL.
The information did certainly dry up a bit when Bubba left Rio and Sperto stopped posting his prive list but nonetheless there was still lots of useful info for anyone willing to suffer through all the economic debates etc.
A special thank you to World Travel 69. His map seems to have flown under the radar a little bit here (perhaps because it was posted as its own thread) But his Map is excellent. Probably the single most useful source on this entire forum and certainly somewhere all newbies should be directed.

I make a map like that everywhere I visit (even non mongering holidays) so I know the time and effort it takes. People really should help him keep it updated because it is a great resource.
Sperto. I understand why you stopped posting your lists. You also started withholding Prive numbers etc from your reports (although I note as of late you have been a bit more forthcoming again). Whilst I am new here (I am not going to sit here and tell you what you should and shouldn't post), I am not new to these forums and my own view is that it is not in the general spirit of these forums for Senior members just to share info among themselves by private message. Whilst my moral stance is irrelevant to other members, the bigger issue is that the overall impact a lack of accessible information on the forum has in general. Senior members move for work, get ill, die, change mongering location. If there isn't new life breathed into these boards then eventually the information dries up completely. It is therefore in all board members interests that new members like myself stick around. Whilst a lot of new members come here downright lazy, unless someone is determined as I am to read through everything the information is not easy to fund. On a couple of occasions, I went through 6 months or so of posts without anything of use. There are people who will always register, ask a load of questions and then never be heard from again. But the way I look at is if the information I post helps convince one in a hundred new members to stick around and post their own reports and feedback then in the long run that benefits both myself and the entire forum.
So moving on to my contribution back to the forum. I will be doing my own trip report in a month or so once I am back in the UK from my upcoming trip. (I don't travel with a laptop so any on the ground reports are very unlikely) In the meantime as I was reading through all 20875 posts in this thread I have been copying and pasting everything of use into one document and I have gradually filtered this down into a few directories. Essentially I now have a directory of all locations mentioned on this Forum in the last 10 years, notes price updates (price updates from 2017 onwards), full address etc. Everything is in relevant sections. For example there is a sub heading of Centro prives and then separate headings for each building and further sub heading prive number etc. I have also updated World Travel 69;s Map. My question for the senior members is how would you suggest I post the information back.
1) I could post it as a set of a few word documents / PDF. The problem is this won't be accessible to basic members which is the whole point of a guide like this and I have to repost the entire thing each time to update it which isn't very practical.
2) I could share the file with a google docs link (perhaps in a new thread so it doesn't get bogged down on the main thread with the economics discussions). This has the advantage that the link will always provide the most recent update. As I am still in moderation as a new member perhaps admin can confirm that this doesn't break any of your rules (I had a look over the rules and its wasn't really covered0 in principle it doesn't seem any different to a google maps link so hopefully this is OK).
3) I could share the file via google docs again as 2 above but allow the document to be edited by anyone, whilst in an ideal world this would be the perfect solution, I can't help but think that there would people ruin it and post negative things or deliberately delete information or insert deliberately misleading information.
I am leaning towards option 2 personally if it is allowed by the forum rules.
Thermas Monte Carlo rates
Could somebody please inform me some recent rates from Termas Monte Carlo? I'll be staying at Copacabana in May, quite close to that place.
Centaurus: What the hell happen? 4 x 4 going to open again? Any news?
Just arrived to RIO last night, only staying here till Sunday than heading to SP for the week. This is my 3rd trip to RIO, staying in Ipanema close to my favorite place in the whole word: Centaurus.
Yes, I know its a little pricey compare to other termas but I had the best experiences every time I come here from my previous visits to Brazil. Well. Except last night.
It was slow, probably no more than 20-25 girls max, I felt like the talent level dropped. I prefer my girl to have big tits and big ass, fake or real! A body like my favorite porn star Sophie Dee is what I was looking for. There was decent looking women in there but there were no 10's. Nothing compare to previous years went I went to Centaurus 2008,2015.
Was it because it was Valentines Day?? Could it be the reason why its slow? I heard about a scandal with one of the owners committed embezzlement 2 years ago and bunch of the girls didn't get paid, I figure there was not recent so it should have no effect for this year?
Is 4 x 4 going to reopen again?? Such a national tragedy that it got burnt down. Any word if they are going to open it up again.
Thanks.
