Box24, Black Diamond, Spartan Slots switching to Top Game

[Glunn11]

Well, this is exciting.

We have received notification from our software provider, Rival that as from 7th August we will no longer be able to accept New US player registrations. Please note your existing US players will still be able to deposit and you will continue to earn commission on player generated revenues.

In light of this decision we are changing our software provider to the TopGame so we can continue to promote our product to the US. The process will involve migrating existing players and affiliates for our 3 brands; xxx.box24casino.com, xxx.spartanslots.com and xxx.blackdiamondcasino.net with an expected completion date of the 15th August 2011.

Cue the cries of extreme joy.
I wonder if this means Sloto and Desert Nights will have to do something similar?

Box24, Black Diamond, Spartan Slots switching to Top Game

Black Diamond was originally a Top Game casino to start with, so this is a VERY interesting move.
I can't think of any other casino which switched software and then switched back again later...

I think not... but you never know
I guess it depends on what percentage of their player base is from the USA.

Regardless of whether people like Rival casinos or not, it is still very bad news for American players to lose yet another software option. Only a small handful left now and half of of the casinos still in the US are either dodgy or rogue...

At least we all know why the US is losing software unlike us Canadians here, just seems to disappear for reasons listed as "other".......Rival, WW, English Harbour (now gone)

Just got this from Sloto:

It is with great regret that we have to inform you that as from 7th August 2011 our software provider, Rival Powered, will no longer allow new registrations from the United States.

Looks like it's just the Box24 group that's opting to switch right now. As KasinoKing suggested, it appears that Sloto will be able to carry on without additional US membership.

The mail I got also said this:

Following up on our previous email we are making some exciting changes in the next month, including our new live support that will be up and running plus we will have exciting news coming out soon.

I can't help wondering if they are planning to add a USA friendly casino on a different software... ?
We know that Rival can't / won't block this because Win Palace already have casinos on 3 different softwares.
Guess we'll just have to wait & see...

KK,

Can you tell us which three softwares/casinos winpalace operates? I know mayflower is related and is topgame, but I wasn't aware of a third software (other than RTG and topgame).

Thanks

If, Black Diamond and others are changing back to Top Game, can we expect it to be under the same managment? Black Diamond was a good casino when it was Top Game and I would definately play there again, stopped when it went Rival, but am concerned if it will be turned over to some other managment that may not be credible?

Also would the casino change automatically or would a new download have to be made? I have found I am unable to download any Top Game casinos to my computer?

I don't know the answer to the management question, but yes, you'd need to download the new Top Game-powered software.

Well that is to bad since I haven't been able to download any Top Game.
