Oh...ok, I got it now...how silly of me to think that your kids would use chocolate chips to play the machine! No wonder kids love the machine...to get the toys and sweets! Maybe for adults, they should put erotic stuff instead?!

You mean they use those chocolate coins to drop into the machine? Hmmm...in those days, the slot-in size would only fit the size of a 2p (it was a big coin) or smaller coins...maybe those chocolate coins fit the size?

I can't say for others, but for me, I do not like any casino belonging to Equinox, so I always avoid them. Same goes for many other casino groups too. I only play at casinos belonging to Direx NV and N1 Interactive. Used to play at casinos belonging to Joc Solutions, Mirage and a few others, but have stopped since. As to the ratings given by Askgamblers, I am not in any position to say anything about them, but hopefully the admin side can elaborate for you.

Wheeey...that's rather nice of Grosvenor to offer you some gifts, but yeah, not everyone is entitled to get them no doubt...only those who have deposited A LOT! Between land-based and online, I'd choose land-based one too, inspite of the damn Covid thing, hahaha. I've almost forgotten the thrill of approaching the casino and making an entrance into it...then it's a world of my own.

As the RTPs drop lower, my interest in slots disappears even more...all the better for me...and whomever else who wants to quit playing slots.

In other words, casinos in UK are gonna be dead meat some time in the near future?

Looks like BTG is hungry for more money...

My story? Hmm...a few of you have already read my story before, but here it is again... Basically, I was watching 'Mr Bean' show on tv way back during my student days, whereby he went to Brighton beach (UK), entered an amusement arcade, saw the coin-drop machine with a big pile of 2p coins at the edge waiting to drop off, so he made an accidental hard bump against machine, but not a single coin dropped down...the machine was solidly anchored to the floor! Hahaha. Well, there was a day when I was loitering around Leicester Square (London), entered an amusement arcade, and imitated Mr Bean's accidental bump...not a single coin dropped down either! Hahaha. But then I saw some slot machines and one-arm bandits...and that was the day I started playing slot machines! How long ago was that? Errr...how many of you still remember those 2p coin-drop machines? That's how long ago it was!

Just goes to show that AIs are not that intelligent as yet for now!

Must be honey-flavoured dust...

Today, the 11th day of October 2020 (11 happens to be my number, strangely enough), I'm gonna close this Red Alert topic with what I thought would be a mission impossible task, but I finally did it today...me versus 7 Russian rivals, playing at hard level...6038 kills with zero loss on my side...a perfect maximum score! Wouldn't that be super great if it was on my favourite Supe It Up, True Love, or Safari Heat game, right (but that's a completely true mission impossible!)? And with these 2 screenshots, I hereby close this topic, except for my future reference, if needed.

Well mate, you're still at baby crawling speed at breaking your world record attempt! Crawl, stand up, walk, then run...the finish line will be waiting for you somewhere out there!

Waaaait a minute...aren't you the one who said earlier on that you gonna break the world record at writing reviews???!!!

Hi Kayenne. You seem to be becoming more active here in the forum by the day, but that's a good thing. It reminds me of me back in my earlier days, hehehe. We all have different tastes and likes, and we all play slots for varying individual reasons. For me, I was simply thrilled by slots from way back when they were played on stand-alone desktops. Then I moved on to the actual slot machines in a land-based casino for an even more thrilling experience. Nowadays, I get all my fun, entertainment and whatnots from my computer screen, with complete privacy, out of sight from prying eyes, in the comfort of my home. I couldn't ask for anything better than that...except for a woman companion by my side who can share the same hobby, but in my country, that's a big no-no unfortunately, but I won't go into that. I don't enjoy playing 3-reels slots and I find them rather boring actually. 5-reelers are simply perfect for me - the play screen is nice and uncluttered, and 243-ways to win was simply perfect - the perfect combination of 5 reels 3 rows and all-ways pay. Then the rows became more and more. From 3 rows, to 4 rows and now up to 12 rows. From 5 reels to 6 reels, some with out-of-shape formations that I simply couldn't like. Then Yggdrasil introduced the world's first toilet-paper-format slot game (called Plant something, don't even want to remember the name), with very tiny symbols and god knows how many rows, which was simply ridiculous, and it died soon after...thank god for that! All these while, the wins were becoming smaller and smaller, and the nice bigger ones would take ages to get. Getting 5 Wild symbols was paying from 10,000 back in those earlier days to paying peanuts nowadays. Same goes for getting 5 Scatter symbols, whilst the other regular symbols hit seabed bottom win values, with completely and ridiculously tiny winning amounts! To compensate for all these tiny winy winning payouts, game providers then introduced more winning lines, but with a slightly higher minimum starting bet, absolutely good for the providers, cos each player would need to pay more to win less! Naaah! I'm not going to be blinded by their 117,000 ways to win, or Megaways as they named it. A look at their win values is enough to disgust me! Are slots becoming boring nowadays? ABSOLUTELY! So much so that I would only play my old favourite games and none of the newer Megaways ones!

And that is exactly how I have been doing it too.

Thanks for the tip Guru-san. I haven't played that game yet, will need to find a freeware for it, if available anywhere. Don't wanna purchase anything, as usual.

Finally got the perfect game...zero loss against 4 Russian enemies. No cheat codes, just straight battling...finally found a way to beat the artificial incompetence!

Been playing for 15 years? Ooops...that's not a 'new' player by any standard...my bad. You can always check at the casinos list here to see if they're reliable ones. If they're not listed, they may or may not be rogue ones. Not all casinos are in the list here anyway.

Now that is just one example of A.I...artificial incompetence!

Hi there and welcome to Askgamblers forum Andy. From your questions, it's apparent to me that you are still 'new' to casinos and casino games, but that's okay, we all are 'new' once before. All games are played from the game provider's server/s, which may be located at various locations around the globe, not at the provider's HQ. Casinos merely host the games as a medium to play the games. Playing one same game at different casinos will definitely give differing game play and payouts. No two casinos can give identical or near identical game play, due to so many variances coming into play at each and every casino or location. Even though the main RTP of the game is the same, what you get playing the game won't be...some may get a good game, most others would not. Casinos have no control over the game's payouts (except for rogue casinos) as they are only the middlemen or agents for the games provider. Payouts are regulated by the game's designated RTP, plus various other sub-programs that provide additional regulating mechanisms to the game, such as artificial intelligence for one. Here again, no two game providers would have the same regulating mechanisms or payouts schedules. Hope that gives you a better picture of how slots work.

Yeah, I have played at quite a number of Rival casinos some years back, but have avoided all of them nowadays. Avoid them if you can, or else, be very wary of their casinos and games!

Why? Rival slots have never been any good...poor paying games...most new games are clones of older ones...boring game play!

Sorry mate, I have not played at Megapari Casino, am restricted if not mistaken.

My biggest bet was $1000 a spin on a Playtech game...but in fun mode! Never in my life would I ever play at such a ridiculous high bet, hehehe. In real money mode, I have played a few spins per session at $64 and $56 per spin, but quite a number of spins at $42, playing Playtech's Mr Cashback game. That was in the good ole years of 2013/2014. In the year 2020, my usual bets range from $0.05 to $0.75, but mostly at $0.15 per spin.

Oh, okay, to each his own. I can enjoy all kinds of humour except political ones.
