I’m just exciting because it’s gonna kick off! Bring back JB and Mr Bitch! We need a random war.

JB V Bio

Mr Bitch v Argyl.

Fight to the death.

Mr B certainly was a character. I remember I went as far as literally writing a basic, 100% random slot simulation and breaking down exactly how it worked, line-by-line, and how this resulted in the overall long term RTP and he still was like nah, it’s rigged. How do you answer that? It’s like mate you can literally run this code on your own computer and see every individual instruction. Does the conspiracy between casinos, regulators and game providers now go so far they’ve built the game rigging in to the hardware of the CPU in your laptop? But my impression was that he had some severe mental health issues which may have accounted for his quirky paranoia about this subject. JB on the other hand was either a troll in the truest sense of the word (i.e. someone who gets a kick out of deliberately trying to provoke people on the internet in to reacting), or a teenager. If he was neither of those things, I just feel embarrassed for him.

“All action” games are bonus buys in everything but name though.

Bonus buys were banned because they encouraged problem gambling with little prospect of a profitable return.

So why is it different and allowed ?

Because it’s a loophole in the regulation. It was never intended.

This includes Revolut and other money cards

Yeah why is that? Revolut is a prepaid debit card. I sacked them off anyway after they froze my account for 4 weeks and demanded I explain and justify every single transaction I’d ever made on the card and send them a tax statement. Literally asked for more SoW documentation than casinos I’ve deposited and withdrawn thousands at.

Bit pointless as what you get is pre determined regardless of which stones you click. You may notice for example that if your first two reveals are +spins, 99% of the time your remaining stone will be a multiplier.

Thing is that we won’t get rid of the virus. We will develop a vaccine, but it won’t go away. The threat will be diminished.

Almost certainly true, we already know we have extreme difficulty vaccinating against this class of virus and that there are already numerous mutations and strains of it.

Anyway, yes, it’s all overhyped by the media and the politicians are using it for their own gain. Meanwhile the people are accepting living under tyrannical conditions, cus they believe every fucking thing they’re being told by the leftist media. It’s like some sort of disgusting social experiment. People actually embrace this shit.

I think there’s a middle ground between the extremes here. It’s possible for it to be a real and very dangerous threat while also being true that both the social reaction and incessant media speculation are to some degree over the top and over cautious. Stuff like lockdown measures are by definition a balancing act anyway, since you have to have an at least minimally functioning society and economy, or you don’t have anything left to come back to when the measures are eventually lifted.

Humanity has ALWAYS welcomed doomsday prophecies. It’s as if people don’t have enough excitement in their lives, so they love when some drama shit like this happens so they can feel like they’re part of something special.

Yeah I think there’s an element of truth there. It’s a very sweeping generalisation, but as a generalisation about the population, yeah I think people do sort of romanticise drama. You can see the evidence of that in people making (in my opinion wholly unwarranted) comparisons to war time and “Blitz spirit”. That people do this may be a coping mechanism when trying to deal with all the uncertainty.

I bet Covid-19 is not gonna kill more people on a global scale than a regular flu does. And keep in mind, we have a vaccine for the regular flu, yet it kills more than Covid-19 does.

Oversensationalized bullshit.

Absolutely disagree, this is in no way “just a bit of flu”. We already know very reliably from the limited data we have that COVID-19 is much more dangerous than seasonal flu and has a higher mortality rate – but moreso, a much, much higher chance of causing severe illness and death in people who were otherwise fit and healthy. This is not seen in common flu strains, if we’re going to compare it to flu it’s more like the H1N1 strain responsible for the highly deadly Spanish Flu pandemic in the early 20th century.

I played it once for a 20 quid game and made a minuscule profit of about £2.50, then decided I’d rather just play regular Diamond Mine. These All Action things should be banned anyway, they’re nothing but a deliberate middle finger to the regulator when they banned bonus buys.

Another new megaways slot? What a delightful, thrilling and totally unexpected direction for a provider to go down. Excuse me while I go to sleep…

My question was how volatile would you say roulette was compared to doa say from 1 to doa10. Maybe I should have been clearer.

You’re comparing apples and oranges. The volatility on a slot is fixed; you can change your stake but you can’t change your odds of winning on any given spin. In roulette you can, so there’s no comparison to be made. The volatility of roulette is up to you as the player. Lowest possible volatility is covering 35 numbers for a 95% chance of getting about 102% of your stake back, highest possible volatility is putting your entire stake on one number.

[ar argyl53 WANTED $419 Outlaw]

The volatility of roulette is determined by how many numbers you cover, simple as that. Rolla tends to put a lot on six or seven numbers on a particular wheel section. Obviously if you cover 30 numbers you’re a lot more likely to get a hit but for a much lower proportionate return on your bet. And obviously if you play immersive roulette, you can cover 36 out of 37 numbers and still lose.

I tried your technique mate, the “edge” didnt work for me, no idea what I do wrong tho, any pro tips?

No, no, no! Do not try this at home! The Bandit has been literally tens of thousands of pounds in, a dozen reloads at 5k a time, before hitting a top and if you’ve watched all the videos, there are times it’s only freakishly good fortune (e.g. hitting two lots of 5 scrolls on £40 stake within a few spins of each other) which have rescued him from being six figures down.

What Steve does is not a guaranteed win system and it’s not something you should try even on the smallest stakes unless you’re okay with the possibility of losing big. The only way to do it is to keep reloading and keep bashing the ladder all the way on every win until and if it hits. You might get lucky and find this happens very early, but a lot of the time it won’t.

I also find this one a bit odd, from Dazza G’s latest Bonanza video. How did the screen turn out to look like this? I have never seen this happen. How is the D in the bottom right, underneath the L? How do you land the D before the L? This fucker never shows what casino he’s on in his Bonanza sessions either. I just don’t believe him for a fucking second. Dazza is a scammer.

I’ve seen this happen on at least one version of the game; it doesn’t land like that, but after the bonus ends and it takes you back to the base game screen there’s a glitch where the scatters “reset” to be in the correct letter order from left to right.

I’ve watched Dazza G occasionally and he seems to think on the Bonanza Bonus he can tell if a spin is a win or not based on how fast the reel spins

Dazza G has no idea what he’s on about. The speed of the spin is determined by the roundtrip time in getting a server response, which is worse on some casinos than others or at different times of day. Some slots do have tells though (not that they are any practical use) – for example on Novomatics, you can usually tell if a bonus is about to hit because the spin will sort of jitter slightly before it lands (though annoyingly Captain Venture will also do this on some missing teases). Similarly, on their Book of Ra games if you see the book going past on the reel about to land during a tease, you’re not hitting it.

Sadly these sorts of things are just minor glitches in behaviour, there’s nothing you can use to your advantage other than perhaps to know you’re about to get a bonus a fraction of a second before you see it land.

I don’t take bonuses because so many sites now seem to have such a convoluted maze of terms attached to them you might as well be playing with monopoly money. At least if you stick to real cash and have a verified account, you know you’re not getting stitched up come a withdrawal.

[ar argyl53 WANTED $419 Outlaw]

One thing I will say is read the terms and conditions of the casino before you do this; I’ve known a couple which specifically state you may not intentionally delay the outcome of a game round (i.e. they ban bonus hunts). Don’t want to get a juicy win and find they won’t pay you on a technicality.
