Grand Slam of Slots
The Grand Slam of Slots begins one month from today!
I don't have a lot of money for rebuys and continues, so I cherish little hope of top prize. But I am excited to hope for a chance at a great prize, there are quite a few, and for some odd positions. I wonder how many members here currently have a entry, and how many are actively trying. There are a few familiar names (or similar ones), and I'd like to see some of our own membership walk away with a few dollars (or euros). I do have several questions about the tourney however, and I am PMing the MG reps here hoping to get some answers. Earlier, in the Slotmeister thread, Mark posted: Quote:

Also, my status in any other freerolls at 32Red now show as Linda_Bee. I would hate to be denied a win because of multiple aliases. I'm sure I'm not the only player wondering this stuff, and I think it is best that all of it is clear prior to this mammoth tournament taking place. Thanks again 32Red and the Slotmeister tourney for my entry. ![]() And I hope some of the other MG casino representatives take the time to present their casinos take on the multiple aliases issue and entries into the Grand Slam of Slots. |

Thank you Mark for that speedy response!
I do hope that I have not missed any of the MG representatives here (pretty sure I got everyone on the accredited list) and I hope they come by and let us know their own policies. If I did miss someone, my apologies and I hope you see this thread and reply. |

Hi Jasmine,
No worries there, as it's a network-wide rule for the Grand Slam of Slots tournament. ![]() Mark |

I recently noticed I am no longer able to access tournaments without creating a new alias. I queried this with the casino I first discovered this, and they said this was something MGS had recently "cobbled together" having noticed that some players were ALREADY playing more than one alias through several MGS casino accounts.
This is a loophole I discovered last year, but it was not picked up - even though I mentioned it here. I found that at Ladbrokes, unlike all other MGS casinos, I was NOT allowed to use my usual alias. It did NOT say "vinylweatherman - if this is not you......etc.." as has happened every other time I first played a tournament at any MGS casino. I could not even TELL it that it was me, as when I tried to enter MY alias, it was rejected as "belonging to somebody else". I complained to Ladbrokes support, who simply said "you have to create a new alias for Ladbrokes". I asked again, pointing out I already had one for the MGS network, and wanted to use it as it was stipulated in the MGS network terms. Ladbrokes support said again this was NOT possible, and I had to create a second alias just for them. This is the "back door" by which it became possible, even compulsory, to have multiple aliases. It can. of course, be abused when the casino lobby DOES detect you have a network alias, simply by selecting "not me" when it asks. There have been many posts discussing this, where it looked pretty obvious that a few players were abusing the system. This was flatly denied by those reps that responded to the allegations - but it seems they were lying, possibly because MGS lied to THEM when they asked about it. Now it seems MGS have woken up to this, and I was told that MGS will NOW allow players to use different aliases for different casino accounts. Since the introduction of the "rebuy", the multiple alias issue has been far less relevant as a means to "abuse" the MGS tournament system, other than perhaps "free" tournaments, and those such as the weekender with only limited rebuys allowed. Autoplay is irrelevant as far as the Grand Slam is concerned, as is lag. 8000 coins and 60 minutes to play them. Even the SLOWEST computer would get through these coins in 20 minutes MAXIMUM if there were lots of bonus rounds. My fast PC could handle 1000 coins per minute, and with bonus rounds too. Only rarely did I find I could get less than this rate, usually due to extended periods of lag and more than the usual number of bonus rounds. Autoplay would make ONE difference though - MGS would MAKE MORE MONEY from the Grand Slam. No resting of tired wrists and fingers needed between rounds, which would encourage MORE continues and rebuys, something far more likely with €1,000,000 on offer for perhaps that ONE lucky spin in the round, such as 5 scatters or 4 wilds in free spins. The selected slot, Tomb Raider, is low variance, so it would be these types of wins that would make an overall winner, and the more rebuys - the greater the chance of being the overall winner. Another thing that may have happened is that MGS have read (or been told of) posts about "autoclickers" being used with some success, and have decided they had better make this kind of thing available to ALL players, otherwise players might react by AVOIDING the paid tournaments if they believe they are playing against "bots" (not that autoclickers give any real advantage, since they don't make decisions, they just click, and may well miss bonus rounds if the player looks away from the screen thinking their autoclicker is doing all the work)

I don't want to miss out on this, but have been too rubbish/unlucky/disorganised/busy to guarantee a place as yet.
Some serious spinning required between now and then to sneak in one way or another!!!

As I have no chance in hell of qualifying I hope to read in one months time that one of the casinomeister members has gotten some nice wins.
Good Luck Jasminebed and vinylweatherman |

I got my entry by winning the 32RED casinomeister poker tournament so I will be playing the Grand Slam of Slots next month
I do however have to create a slots alias as I have not played any tournaments yet at 32red. Also I should get some more info about this grand slam as I have no idea yet what it actually is! Yes of course some big tournament as the title of it implies but I have never played it before. Gl to all participating. |

![]() I don't think it matters though, as you only need ONE because of "unlimited" rebuys.

Oh, I do have another question. Is the prize paid in the currency the player plays in? Or is it in euros, with all the rebuys and/or continues being converted to euros as well?
