Glitch in Summertime?

[LRDell]

Anyone notice a huge number of times that two plums have been coming up on the first two reels of Summertime? I have been playing at Villento lately and it seemed like almost 1 in 3 spins, there would be two plums on the first two reels. Rarely three to pay, though. Don't know if it is specific to this casino or an overall glitch. After I noticed it I really started paying attention and didn't notice this pattern with any other fruit or other character, just plums.

Interesting, thanks I will have to watch for that.

Either there are enough plums of the first two reels to make a pudding, OR, the "slots" are not what they seem - reels halting at random, but a background Keno game with a slot display as per UK Section 16 (gambling act) "slot" games.

What is needed is a series of, say, at least 1000 spins counting the appearance of plums, along with a reel band for reels one and two. This can be used to determine the number times plums should appear, and then it can be checked against the number of times they do.

The reels could be programmed into Zoozie's simulator, as Summertime is a Thunderstruck clone more or less, and the program adapted to count plums. This could allow a simulation of millions of spins.

One of these days, some bright spark here will find a way of using interactive screen capture to analyse hundreds of slot spins rather than the laborious process of spinning, and in this case, manually noting plum positions on each spin.

Yes. As vinylweatherman says we allready know the reel from Thunderstruck clones. (same order of symbols on each reel, just different graphics)

Just download the simulation and load Thunderstruck and then you can see how many times the symbol appear on each reel. Use the paytable for the 'plum' to see what the matching thunderstruck symbol is.

For MG slot every reel position are equally likely (for the 5-reel slots! not the 3-reel slots of course).

If the plums are the same as the TS 9 symbol, it all makes perfect sense to me!

How many times do you hit a pair of 9's ???

Loadzzzzz....

Top of my head I think cherries are 9's... So to speak. It's been a while though!

Oh yeah, probably Slotster.

The 10 symbol then.

Can't believe you ain't spinning though - good going.

This thread very interesting to me as I am both a Villento & Summertime player.Haven't noticed the plum bit before, but will sure be watching now.

I am going to put casino on practice mode, and run a lot of spins on Summertime.

Suggest others do the same, and may a concensus will show up.

It's not been an enforced absence or anything, just literally not had time - and when I have been playing on and off it's been Wagerworks. Had a brief spell at 32RED last night, but nowhere near back to the 'good ol' days' just yet...

playing in free mode @ Golden Tiger. Bet size was $4.50 playing all lines.
Started with $1,000.00.

1st 100 spins- Plums on first 2 lines 33X - no feature - highest single win
was $27 - lost $231.

2nd 100 spins- Plums on first 2 lines 29X - Hit feature twice - Payouts were
$111.00 (with plums 7X on first 2 lines) and $229.50 (plums 2X on first 2 lines) - Highest single hit was $100.00 - $310.00 ahead.

3rd 100 spins- Plums on first 2 lines X 40 - Hit feature once for $157.50 -
(plums on first 2 lines 8 TIMES out of 15 free spins! WOW) - highest single hit $100.00 - $53.00 ahead.

4th 100 spins- Plums on first 2 lines 28X- Feature 1X for $223.50 - (plums
on first 2 lines 6X) - single highest hit $20 measley dollars!!! - $1.50
ahead.

5th 100 spins- Plums on first 2 lines 34X- No feature- Highest hit $20 a few times- - down $238.00.

Well, I lost $238.00 after 500 spins. I thought the payouts were measley and infrequent. Most wins were less than original bet of $4.50. I,too, think that 2 plums coming on first 2 lines to be excessive (isn't that about 1/3 of all spins?). Especially aggravating were the 2 plums during the free spins. I thought the game was pretty tight but maybe it would be a good one for grinding down WR?

It was interesting and I hope this helps.
