It's a real shame to let this beautiful contest just die out like this but it's just so hard to fit in one Bragg slot with every window on all 6 computers occupied with multiplaying Holly Jolly Bonanza

Yes, this is how it plays out isn't it, doesn't matter if it's the first or last spin. I think each and every 300-400x I've seen has come in the exact same manner: a one-hit wonder. All we need now is for that one hit to include the x100 I also think you sometimes enter a super bonus of sorts, have you noticed in certain features only the15x, 25x seems to drop. To no avail of course

I offered this already on page 1 and the response was that it wasn't an issue and it would stand. I got a backup 500x later, with "legit" stakes anyway, so it wouldn't make a difference. And a 500x is very unlikely to stand the full run anyway, We'll be needing 1000x's for the top places because they will start coming soon.

Ok, Holly Jolly Bonanza 2 is starting to show some signs at what it can do now, some 50 bonuses into it First the 50x revealed itself a couple of times - I hadn't even seen it before. Only connected to a 1x but at least it's there. Then the next spin the green gift tossed out like 16 of the top symbol, worth 50x. Now, if these can only align..!

Here is an example of the industry standard, so to say. I think everyone could live with a rule something like that rather than excluding several currencies:

Another thing to keep in mind is that most casinos operate with a fixed conversion. Say, if you sign up somewhere, on a 100% up to 100€, this will translate to a 100% up to 1000 NOK, not up to 1150 as it should be. Therefore, if a min 0.10 bet rule is instated, it should be deemed fair to allow 1 NOK bets as this is largely considered the equivalent, even if its current value is slightly less.

Also, the low pays are really off putting, you can start with the 25x and a present or two, and then get 2-3 cascades hitting lots of stuff and still only end up with like 1x worth of wins for the 25x to connect with. Seems to happen all the time, I seriously consider to ditch this one.

So, back to Booming Games. Let's offer them some feedback on their games I've played all 4 a good bit now so I thought I'd sum up my impressions: Let it Spin I thought this would be a quite dull game but it's actually real exciting during the free spins how you can get several random effects at once, potentially lining up a huge win. Sadly, these bonuses comes with ages apart, and in between the game seems very capable at eating away on your balance. On this I got the best hit yet but it feels a little to risky too keep running. Holly Jolly Cash Pig I really struggle to see how to get any big wins on this. Only the airplane seems to pay, and you would need a lot of them, over successive spins. Real nice concept with elimination of low paying 10-A's and upgraded symbols but far too eventless once everything is golden, even with retriggers. This game plays the "Big Win" fanfare the most though, so it has a decent base game and I didn't notice it taking much balance. Higher value coins to collect would spice up things but I don't think they are there. Holly Jolly Bonanza Best game by far. Fairly steady on 100x - 300x feature wins but it becomes real hard to take the next step, even with the help of 4-5 retriggers. Very quick, eventless base game so any feature drought can and will hurt, but most of the time, you'll get some of it back if you can sit through the deadspins. Identical to TNT Bonanza, a game I've played a lot and even hit the x100 on the top symbol a few times. And as we can see, it is currently leading the contest too, revealing some of its potential with a win over 1,000x! Holly Jolly Bonanza 2 Possibly the game most likely to throw out the massive win that will decide this contest even if I can't quite see how. Are there presents full of multipliers as well? But in order to get that win, prepare to endure one disappointing feature after the other. The bonuses are outright boring and even with 2 presents up, nothing seems to happen. It has a so called Super Bonus. Is this even obtainable through ordinary play? Fairly harmless base game though, slowly awarding some passive income while waiting for the next bonus to come around to disappoint you.

Sorry, didn't see this. Apologies for the last message, you may delete it. Still, the point about responsible gaming should stand.

We are on even terms as in everyone spins away within their budget, your dramatic example would disqualify the contestant for playing financially irresponsibly. This we all agree on when signing up for these contests. Also, why am I even seeing your messages? Didn't I put you on ignore once you started sending me these weird, creepy pm's?

Something that was probably mentioned already, but you would have to consider intent as well. Me, I played in my own currency, the one I always play in (once the powerhouse currency of the world, now in mere shambles) and these bet amounts were there readily available in my account. I suspected but I didn't know they weren't the same for euros or dollars players. This is why I've also raised my bet size somewhat after this was called out, to the 0.1 equivalent, to make it more in line with the rest of the contestants. (That, and because hitting a 500x on 0.03 feels like a real waste of a good win ) Then there is deliberately looking up how to play in the lowest possible currency, almost demo playing. Now it is starting to look like exploiting. Especially if you line this up in several casinos at once. But hey, it's their sanity... Anyway, most of us will keep spinning non stop all week anyway, be it on 0.01 or 0.2 so we are all on even terms still more or less. The wins will still have to hit.

Would be nice if they somehow could make it in time for Christmas I kind of promised my wife that gold necklace she's wanted for so long - otherwise she'd never let me sit around playing slots all day long and never will again!

Well, well @Afi4wins - you made one mistake, you revealed your strength and it became your weakness! Sugar Rush Xmas, 617.85x ! (That set-up though, could have been so much more!)

There you go! Now we have a contest! Awesome hit mate!

Hmm, something's not right here.. I smell a bluff! Didn't you say you never win on Pragmatic slots? That looks like a win to me! Anyway, good job, mate, this will take some time to beat!

I see your upgrade, @Afi4wins, and raise you another upgrade! But I think this'll be the last one in a while, I got the bonus 3 times in like 50 spins so now Booming will have to give me a very long drought to balance out the usually low feature frequency! Holly Jolly Bonanza, 351.65x

An upgrade rightaway, forgive me @Afi4wins 181.25x on Holly Jolly Bonanza 2

Holly Jolly Bonanza, 100.2x

It's very common, just had 30 and could only barely make it to 100x.

I'll let this hit just over 150x on Holly Jolly Cash Pig conclude day 1 - looked very good with 8 spins to go and everything upgraded to golden but this slot just loves a good dead spin! Had a 485x on one of the Bonanzas a little earlier, with spins to go. The closest I got to improving my score.

Im losing count of all these contests! Love it! Big thank you and every respect to @Icy for keeping his cool in this massive workload!

Yes it does have a decent base game. When you start 50 spins on HJ 1 and HJ 2 side by side, by the time the first one finishes, HJ 2 will only be at spin 25 or so!

On HJ Cash Pig I got 2 retriggers when everything was upgraded and obviously envisioned a max win but like you, I could only watch empty spins from that point on. Currently playing HJ Bonanza 2, feels very hard to get any free spins action, at least 7-8 empty spins every bonus. It feels more weighted towards one massive win rather than several mediocre ones, so I think whoever gets lucky on this one will win the contest.

Ok, I found the culprit. Pay extra attention to this, guys!

Well, I knew these xmas tunes would start messing with my mind eventually! Here I was, minding my own business, restarting autoplay when required, one eye on the games the other reading about Assad's fall... and out of the blue I'm out of balance! Somehow, the game got set to max bet without me noticing. It is very strange because even when you reload, the stake remains where you left it, and as far as I can see there is no bet max button in game which I could have accidentally touched. Also, I was wagering a bonus - why would there not be a buildt-in "you are exceeding the bet limit" warning? Also, even after that, the game keeps going auto lowering your bet size in accordance with the remaining balance. Was there a glitch? Was I hacked? Did I do it myself? I'll never know and I didn't even notice anything because the damn multiplay makes everything so small Very strange.
