Let's have some chit chat :)
pinnit2015 replied to ValDes's topic in Trivia, Quiz Games & Non-Gambling Talk
It's a fine line to walk - and when you do you get some things right, some things wrong. For every ban on reversal, you get a ban on autoplay etc. Casumo have been fined, and i think re-fined, not because of an over zealous regulator but, you know, because they're useless. Having no MLRO, you may as well invite the GC in, open up the cheque book and go 'how much this time mate?' - school boy incompetence. Instant improvement to the UKGC if 1. fill the board up with folk who, you know, actually spin 2. Remove any quasi political figures from the mix (meant to be a non departmental body but they react too much to political pressure 3. Don't know how you do it but they need to add an ombudsman role to their remit - not that 'yeah, we make the regulations but you know, hands off when there's an issue' The same way that governments, in the main, would prefer to adopt a hands off approach and let folk regulate themselves, casino's need to clean their own kitchen. From taking the P""s, to operating with little impunity, they helped in part to create the conditions in a lot of cases for increased intervention - don't get me wrong, like in Aussie land the tightening up and locking down was driven purely by them not liking a decrease in revenues etc but yeah, quit it with the wild west mr casino. Could be worse - could be Germany - boy, what's going on there re casinos is mental with their 1 euro capped spins, wtf. Maybe better vetting on the licencees would help - how 888 have one i do not know. -
Aside from Deadwood, i'd still maybe have some of their earlier releases - they've obviously got into bed with certain slot players/casinos and are churning what they are at the moment for that reason. I think the likes of Tombstone, where i've had 3 and 5kx via the 5, are fairer to be honest. When u do trigger the 5 naturally, i think anything less than a 1000x is poor; had a 500x on Deadwood with the 5 and was raging with it, even though on a quid but still. To be fair to NLC, even though i'm not their biggest fan, at least you know what you're getting/playing: compare that to Thunderstruck 3 or whatever where you could easily go 1000x stake down and have very little chance of even clawing it back as it's awful.

Has anyone played this new one by Yggdrasil? It has a multi that goes well into the 1000s as it doubles each time you have a win (Lolz) - it's actually not bad, but you need the full 13 spins to really hit on it. 7 wont get you much and the gambles from 7-10-13 are 50:50 (apparently, but who really knows). Unfortunately i think YD had the spins at 15/16 when they brought the demo out but that was cut to 13 when it went to real - implies that the win potential has been severely curtailed. Had a few bonus's(10x and 100x) and a few base game hits of 100x: it kept the balance ok actually, once you're into 512 multi you're just looking for 3oak of anything Old '5p' extra per spin to double chance of betting bonus - i oft wonder if that is a load of horses@@t, min bet 20p Of course the whole 3000 multi is all smoke and mirrors but if you do get up past 512 etc it is exciting knowing that four raptors would blow the screen off (in theory), so unlike some slots, least it builds excitement. 6-7/10

Red Alert (RTS game)
pinnit2015 replied to Afi4wins's topic in Trivia, Quiz Games & Non-Gambling Talk
Also, sad how commodore was dominating the market at one point and then boom, IBM/Dell and the rest zoomed by them I was, and still am a massive fan of C64 games - the ones out in recent years, your Call of Duty's etc, hold no interest for me: back then it was games that had a start, middle and end and yeah, the best ones are always the simplest ones: like slots, lets not try and be too fancy, just make something enjoyable. -
Red Alert (RTS game)
pinnit2015 replied to Afi4wins's topic in Trivia, Quiz Games & Non-Gambling Talk
Inputting the cheats into the C64 was a job in itself - you had to type out a string of code and hope you didn't do a typo. Dizzy was a Egg who went left to right, up and down and you solved puzzles: like the Bard in the tree. Even thinking about it brings my memories of being 10/11, sunny summers day. Folk who played the C64 will remember the loading screen as well The games, if you used the cassette, used to take 7/8 minutes to load (if lucky, or up to 20mins): then came the cartridges that cut that by half IIRC -
Treat their slots btw like you would DOA: spare 20 near the end, min/one up stakes, walk away at the end - experience of playing NLC is grinding and deposit after deposit, will kill ur bank balance
-
You'll not see many naturals on some of their slots - seen it on East V West Coast, had the 5 a few times in deadwood but pretty sure San Quentin and this slot, it's a Hail Mary you'll need. NLC said it's 'extremely rare' to see it in SQ - so rare, i think people have seen Lord Lucan more often in the last year.

Quick Slots with Massive Winning Potential
pinnit2015 replied to Fiekie247's topic in Online Slot Discussions
QS have improved over the years - i quite like Goldilocks and there was a Mountain Game (King?) that is/was quite good. For me though they're a wagering slot - click 100 auto and come back and you're even quite a lot of the time. Much prefer them over PNG (though i would think PNG will give out more 1000x's over time) but QS are at least nice and bright and, if in the mood, relatively enjoyable in a sea of HV dead spins we have on the market atm. -

Wait until folk bust out the old Commodore 64: Dizzy the Egg, Pitfall, Bubble Booble BB was a fantastic game, as was the Dizzy series. I've had PS, Xboxes, Occulus's throughout the years but even if i live to 150 and play them it won't reach the hours i put into some of those games. -

pinnit2015 replied to Afi4wins's topic in Trivia, Quiz Games & Non-Gambling Talk
Unlike most RTP's these days. -
More streamer bait Aye, if natural trigger then 66kx, bonus buy = 66x Question - odds of natural trigger? Don't think there's enough 0's available. Another question is if natural triggers play the same as the bonus buy - pretty sure they don't 66kx isn't that out of the box to be fair - Lil Devil's had a few and DOA2 has been shown to hit 100kx etc The game ok - obvs from the UK, am never gonna see mental spins: best is about 250-300x here, bulk are in around 50x. Just think if from the UK, no able to BB, you'd be better off sticking with DOA2 etc for those X wins

Mega slot wins - oh yes, it's possible!
pinnit2015 replied to ValDes's topic in Share your Winner Screenshots
Funnily enough it was Midas i think i came second in that 1000 one recently (170 quid i think) but one of the rare times it went bonus mad and was throwing out 200x bonus rounds consecutively (normally 10-20x) They never used to give you anything as well for 4/5 on the fifth round of rounders but now give you 167 ish quid for fourth (made it to the final round twice, one second, one fourth) Funny how, despite everyone playing the same game, you prefer some games to others Hit a 7000x on that What the Fox game recently but it was the 75 spins for first and the spins gave 2 quid- 3526 replies

The tournaments there are alright - i actually came second in the Tuesday Madness a month or so ago, for 680 quid i think and second in the Round 5 Rounders for 700 odd i think. BUT keep in mind that's relatively regular play over several years. Came 6th in the Saturday one a month ago as well, bit of a bummer though as i was sitting 7th with 2 rebuys left and it just died. Not a big fan of some of the tournaments though - for some of them what you pay and what you can win is a bit lobsided; there is a 1000 quid one i think, quid buy ins, or 2, i can't remember, that's ok actually - depending on the game you can normally get ur money back at least with 110 -150% RTP- 3526 replies

You should try getting work done, it's murder: 20-40% mark-ups are pretty standard now and can't see the prices dropping even once the supple chain is up to speed. Ordered a new car in July-ish: told August, still nothing as the microchip situation etc- 553 replies

Might be because folk tend to opt for minimum bet/quids and they're the 2: my stakes in DOA are either 9p/18p/90p: when i was on a good run at Betat i used to have a stab at 1.80's but that was only with 300 plus balances for 50 or so. all my wl though have come on 9p/18p/90p but may be skewed as that's what i predominately play at. Never had 90p 5 Scatters but tbh even if i had it's likely it would have cost me 2.5k in deposits anyhow. Come October, and when autospin goes, i won't be playing on 9ps though on: not a mission i am sitting manually clicking 9p spins so the strategy will be, the odd time (i don't really enjoy playing DOA etc), 50 in and 90p spins - which i am pretty sure is anti what the UKGC aimed when they removed it - go figure. Cos i have no interest in watching DOA i always miss the 5 scatters coming in as am usually doing something else around the house and just pop head into the room to re-click the autoplay- 3526 replies

Or, just tell them you have a HGV licence - they'll pay you handsomely for coming in; that'll be a lot of welcome bonus's right there.- 553 replies

This is the thing - you're under no obligation to supply anything; if you were, then data protection and privacy laws would be severely undermined as it essentially amounts to coercion. Sure, if the player doesn't supply , cut the account off and, if a reasonable degree of suspicion, refer the matter to the national crime agency etc. Think the terms and conditions are left a bit wide 'ask for anything' as sometimes you , when docs etc come in, might ask for something that you've not outlined. But that doesn't mean, in the spirit of the law, that you can say 'I will only process the withdrawal if you show you've had ur Covid Jabs' - it still needs to be reasonable and proportionate. No doubt that some of the terms, as i've said repeatedly, in some casino's sites are unlawful/not fair - unfortunately the only way to test them is in court. And they know that. As for you t and c in different countries - pass, my law knowledge is a bit fuzzy now but i imagine it to be a question of enforceability Rizk used to be a good casino, now they're not - i had a fight with them cos i deposited and as soon as i did they locked the account for 2 days and sent me a SOF as soon as i did: pretty rogue behaviour IMO.

That was cos at the start of Brexit they wanted to close the borders but, now that we've found out a lot of UK born nationals are either A. Lazy or B. Lazy or C. Incompetent and lazy, they're now crying out for folk to come in So a fresh application will probably be successful.- 553 replies

Having said that, these 10/20 deposits on min stakes seem to be doing better than the 1-2 quid spins with 100 balances Always nice to get a DOA 5 scatters - NO WAY who's the bride has the same maths as DOA i've done 85000 spins in WTB: no WL, no 5 DOA? I'd say 4 5 scatters and quite a few wildlines Just luck? Hmmmm- 3526 replies

Think so, though u get a random feature as well that plays as if it's one spin in the bonus - love a random feature; why i played Koi Princess for so long Might have only been 4OAK of the top symbol; looked at the pay table and it says 10000x for 5OAK - unless am reading that wrong. Not a bad game tbh; had 50FS in it via novibet the the other week and it randomed featured me x2 to give 80 quid (40p spins i think) PNG are basically the anti NLC in terms of game design - pretty sure these clones take a long lunch to make.- 3526 replies

Psychologically, i think it's worse to lose 500 quid with 50 10 quid deposits than loading one site up and dumping 500 quid in one go. Partly i think cos u go site to site, thinking oh this will break the run and it just puts u into a downward spiral. Also, with a large ish deposit in one go you're likely to maybe increase the flat bet which you can't really do with 10'shere and there. The only supplier i'd say i stick with 20c, not matter if i have 10 or 100 is NLC. I still bet min stakes (though tbh i find them quite boring to play with) but the goal is not to make a w/d from it (unless Jamming Jars/NLC where you can, if you hit the spot, leave 100's up from a tenner in) but to get the balance up to increase betting - i find sticking with min stakes is death by a thousand lashes.- 553 replies

Fair point tbh - found where i spread 10's and 20's over the places i seem to do worst than if i deposit a decent amount in one go and have a stab- 553 replies

See the balance, not bad for spin number 11 or something - only put 10 quid to play the Unibet comp - new PNG, Ghost or summat Line of the top symbol gave the 1000x - bonus gave 10x or something- 3526 replies

Word of warning: Still the same rubbish RTP's but without the perks of battles of VS where you maybe claw a bit of that house adv back Also, no random rewards on wheels for 'win x times' - they give out wheels (min 50 spins) but you need to play at probably 60p plus and on low RTP games to get them quickly It's like VS - only more rubbish. And their bonus i think isn't really a bonus - it's like cash back so no good for playing with bigger stakes etc. Ie it's *****.- 553 replies
