As I've mentioned a few times, they really need to throw the DM's a few bones. At a minimum, one would be either 2 SWU's usable on any published fare, or else let them use two standard SWU's on HKQ.
The other, which occurred to me after reading a few of the other threads on this board (notably the Lounge™ thread), would be a new line item in the choice rewards: a pack of 50 drink coupons. I do believe there are a few of my friends here who could go through that many in a month.
