Auto-Play vs. Single Clicks! (MG)

[Rusty]

That's like me and certain songs from the 1980's that I loved. I can remember almost every word to those songs, but can't remember hardly any other songs from that era that I didn't like, even though I've probably heard them dozens (if not hundreds) of times

80's music, whats to love?
Or were you one of those guys that wore makeup and dressed like an extra from Blakes 7 while playing with his organ?

No, I wasn't.

And I was a teenager during the 80's, so it was quite impressionable on me

" I find that on T-Struck and the clones, when I use 5 or 10 spin auto, it will 90% of the time hit the bonus on either the first or last spin if it's going to come in at all. On Mega-Moolah, the spin bonus comes in on the last spin of auto-play almost everytime if it's going to hit. Seems like that shouldn't be so in a random game. Although I have my suspicions about this, I find it too tiresome to do single clicks for thousands of spins... so I almost always press the spin 5 times button."

What are your thoughts and experiences?

RNGs...yes I am aware of this creature..but I throw it out the door..I've got my theories about these RNGs but am not going to get into that now...

I prefer clicking over APlay anyday..for numerous reasons. When I manually spin/ click, I am actually 'playing' the game..not just watching it. 'Playing' the game, to me means that my clicking has an impact on the reels and outcome of the game. Variables like clicking tempo, amount of pressure, duration of each click, time between each click, etc...definitely impact how the reels spins and land...(yes, I'm superstitous)

I believe the designers of these games imbed secrets within these slots....and its up to the players to find out what these secrets are...
But thats just my 2 cents...

Besides, 'playing' and interacting with the slots is much more fun than being passive with APlay...Unless youre like Simmo! who has had most his killer hits with APlay.

Ah - Software "Easter Eggs" Always an entertaining search on Google that one I'll always remember the full flight simulator built into MS Excel years back and numerous ones in the FPS games like Quake etc. The concept was used by UK fruit machine manufacturers for years so who knows...maybe there are some in online casinos!

Maybe that's the reason you have to download gigs of new data once they release new game(s)

ps: They're also very popular in DVD's too

I grew up playing Nintendo...I spent way too much time in front of the TV, playing Super Mario Bros. 2, trying to save the Princess!
