Okay don’t stress Afi, let me know when they get back to you. Have you submitted the screenshot yet? 

@cocopop3011 Yes, the screenshot has already been posted before your reply (see near the top of page 3).

Whos fighting? I just pointed out something which was obvious so that everyone can take advantage of this. Someone with a low budget could take advantage of this if they weren't aware. I said myself I was going to do it too. Its was more like a thank you post. 

I meant I am not going to be getting involved

Apologies, I kinda wrote the context wrong, I didnt mean to say you fighting...

Thanks Afi, just keep me posted on how it goes, we will find a solution.

When this contest ends up with everyone multitabling all 4 slots in some obscure currency, it'll be time to attach the 2nd monitor

[loceff13]

I do like on bwb they put a simple rule in place to prevent this and the arguments about it:

Currency: Picking lower value currencies not relevant to your actual location (such as NGN) is not allowed. For fairness, minimum bet must always be equal to or over 0.10 EUR.

 

I did a deposit with bonus for the comp but it's disheartening that what I deposited to start with 3000x someone else can pay the same to get ~19500x minbets(by my rough math). Clearly one player wins over the other most of the time. Glad I didn't fire a full bullet. Will see how it plays out towards the endgame.

I am aware of this rule, hence I try to keep my bet in Zar the highest possible when playing at local casinos but prefer to play at international casinos where I meet the standard bet size.

I mean I deposited 50 bucks and claimed 100% at Fortune Panda and 100 euro with 100% bonus at Bitstarz.

Still trying to get a decent win

 

[marius1978]

This could translate into deposit bonuses too, some will have a huge one avaliable, others may have already exhausted it or be restricted from such casinos. Or even rtp, some have the 96% versions avaliable, others may be stuck with some 92% none payer. The only fair rule is that everyone is on completely equal terms, like 1 casino, 1 bonus, 1 set stake

@loceff13 At one time some years back, there was a rule for contests that the minimum bet must be 0.10 USD/EUR or equivalent, but it has since been disruled.

Just look at the progress of this contest...still on Day 1 and already on page 4! Imagine the page number and the number of submitted screenshots by the end of the contest (16th Dec)!

Only the strong (with money) can withstand this kind of onslaught. Me, I'd be sitting back and watching, that's all I can do, and hoping that my entry can stay on till the end.

Looks like @marius1978  has found a loophole in his currency. He is playing at 0.30 kr bets which is equal to $ 0.03. For all of us minimum bet is around 15 to 20 cents. I will find a casino where I can do this too. 

What is the loophole could you please explain? We have had this situation in the past which means we may need to adjust the rules of the contest. 

[cocopop3011]

@marius1978 could you please explain which loophole you have found to allow you to make these very low bet spins? You’re not in trouble by the way, however, we do reserve the right to adjust the rules when loopholes like this are found and possibly exploited, I’m not saying you are of course. Just trying to gather information about how this loophole works at the moment. 

[marius1978]

The issue is that in one currency, the minimum bet is, say, the 0.2 euro equivalent, while in other currencies, like mine - Norwegian Kroner - the minimum bet is the 0.02 euros equivalent. 

[marius1978]

Also. I didn't "find a loophole" - that would suggest I was looking for one which of course I wasn't

Its completely fine @cocopop3011. The thing is some currencies allow players to pick minimum bets which are lower than others while compared to ones in Euro/usd/Cad/Aud. They can go as low as 0.01 when compared to the ones mentioned above. It allows you to sustain your balance. One person if playing with €100 will get 500 spins. In @marius1978 case he will get 5000 spins for €100.

[marius1978]

Also, I think everyone here has the chance to play like that, so in that sense it's the same for everyone, and not an exploit

Its just different currency that allow for minimum bet.

As an example, relax gaming have a minimum bet of $0.10 on all their slots. If I play in Zar I can spin for 1zar per spin which is basically $0.05 per spin. So the currency conversion is mot always done correctly or the lower betting limits are not enforced agaist other lower value currencies.

So its not a loophole. Just a currency with lower betting limits

[cocopop3011]

Gotchya guys. I seen loophole earlier in the contest so went into panic mode. I guess this is just one of the things we can’t avoid. Setting minimum betting limits brings it’s own issues which is why we removed the option for all paylines active. 

Thanks for explaining and good luck all. 

[loceff13]

To be clear, it's a awesome super generous comp relative to the cost of entry and the odds and I consider myself in a good spot for what I deposited to have a chance of climbing and sticking on the leaderboard.

The currency stuff is tough and goes  both ways, I'm paying less than Euros players because the minbets are both .2/.3 so it's favourable to me when usually on other providers minbet would be doubled and be a fairer cost basis. Marius has an amazing spot because they can spin for about 11.5x cheaper than Euros players 

[marius1978]

I would have accepted if the rules were changed to make the minimum bet equal for everyone and that my best win so far would be deemed void, but I would not have accepted to have endured 4 straight hours of listening to these four dreadful xmas tunes playing on top of eachother for nothing!

Thankfully the bottom prizes are more than €300. I am €280 in across three casinos with no more funds. So technically out of comp. Hopefully I will keep my place and recover my losses. 

[Fiekie247]

Okay thanks

Then I assume we can play lower betting if currency allows

I hope you don't panic easily because with these incredibly generous prizes at stake, this will be a fierce contest indeed and I think we can safely predict more issues to arise as the battle heats up

Maybe for your own well-being's sake, just let the contest play out and then you can check in again once it's ended

I will be consulting with booming games to confirm our stance on this but as of now there are no changes to the rules.
