New Slot Announcement Bonanza by Big Time Gaming

[PMKFRUITPRO]

Maybe that’s the casinos cap rather than the actual game itself.

We all know the max win from the feature is closer to 280x than 28k

What’s the difference between Batman and BTG?

Batman has been known to have a day without Robin.

[cncas2123]

Virgin Bet.

 

[Jono777]

Virgin Bet.

Weak ass joke time, tired, bored, you know the usual shit...in fact posting still knowing its beyond a boredom post, anything to occupy 60 seconds

Bet most of the people on this thread wish they were Bonanza virgins

Anywayyyyy - Nice hits Cncas

 

[PMKFRUITPRO]

Yes I’m thinking of having surgery to re-become a bonanza virgin.

It’s a complicated procedure apparently. Undoing 6 years of torture, countless brains, mental health issues, false hopes and dawns, broken mouses, keyboards and monitors, mental breakdowns, psychological issues, physical and mental scarring, family neglect, relationship issues all in the hope of a fucking bonus that ultimately delivers fuck all.

The good run continues.

I have some interesting (in my opinion) figures based on my play over the past four weeks.
This has nothing to do with long term RTP which I have no issues with on 99% of games but the 'hot and cold' runs you get when playing a game regularly. Again, in my opinion, this shouldn't happen if everything is as random and independent as it's supposed to be.

These figures only cover 30,000 spins over 22 days but something happened on Saturday that made me think. A week and a bit ago I mentioned on here how the base game and bonuses had suddenly gone to pot after being very generous to me previously. Well, it was crap all week but then changed again on Saturday so I had a look at my figures for bonus frequency.

Week 1 (from 24th Dec) - 8924 spins, bonus every 343 spins, average bonus pay out 67.1x
Week 2 (from 31st Dec) - 5297 spins, bonus every 353 spins, average pay out 65.5%
Week 3 (from 7th Jan) - 9436 spins, bonus every 589 spins, average pay out 96x
Week 4 (from 14th Jan) - 4152 spins, bonus every 318 spins, average pay out 112x but bear in mind this is only three days so far and I had a 597x in there. I expect the pay out will go down over the next few days.

Apart from a couple of days on Bet365 that have the MGS version and during which there was no notable difference in play, all the rest were the NextGen version so why would week 3 be completely different from the other weeks? And it was exactly one week. It wasn't down to not having a bonus for thousands of spins, on the contrary, the frequency was very regular, just further apart. The longest I had to wait in that period was 1214 spins. I had a 1449 spin wait in week one but still averaged lower as I was often getting bonuses less than 100 spins apart. During week three I only once went below 300 spins.
Strangely, as the amount of spins required to get the bonus went up, the bonus payout went up as well. How does it know?
Also, in week 3, my weekly RTP was down in the mid 80's%, it was at 110% since November before that so it wasn't just the bonus frequency. I wasn't expecting it to stay at 110% but I thought the decline would be more gradual

I know it's only a small sample and I'd have to play at this level for months to see if these weekly peaks and troughs are regular occurrences but it was so stark that it made me think. If you're just dipping in and out of a game every few days you probably won't notice it, although I have to say I've felt the same thing on loads of other games by Blueprint, Red Tiger etc. but not kept records or played them enough to check if it's all in my head or not.

A chart showing how my average was bumbling along quite happily at the 350 spin range before abruptly going up to 400. The last three days have seen it dip back down again.

Sorry for the long post. I'm not a tin-foil hatter, honestly, just a realist who likes to know how things work!

 

[PMKFRUITPRO]

What I want to know is how do you get a bonus frequency like that in the first place??

Running so well there.

Ha ha. I dunno. I've read on here it's supposed to be one in 460. Not my experience although I've only been keeping figures for a little while. Been playing the game infrequently for years, can't remember it being as generous as this in the past to be honest.

As an aside, my record since November is four spins between bonuses. I've also had a 9 and an 11 and none worse than 1449. happy days!

**edit**
As an afterthought I am a low roller. Most spins on here are at the 20p to 60p mark and none more than £2. I haven't collected figures based on stake. Wish I had now.

 

[brianmon]

Unusually, there wasn't a single dead spin.

510x

 

[brianmon]

Has anyone had this before?
It wouldn't even let me spin my last 20p

 

[snorky510238]

It’s because you hit that x500 above, Bri.
Anyone who dares hit the max-cap win is removed from being able to play until the win is authenticated, as during the billions of trial spins, it didn’t happen once!

To be serious though, no, I never experienced that. I wish I had to be fair, would have saved a fortune.

 

[goatwack]

You'd think with six years' worth of 'updates' the game would run smoother than a greased-up monkey on ice, and yet it's still a glitchy crock of shite.

Who knew?

 

[cncas2123]

Think it has happened to me a couple of times when I hit my loss limits. Not sure if thats what is happening with you but definitely looks what happened with me.

 

[dunover]

Yep - but not since I played it at Rizk a couple of years back, and it happened on 60p a few times. You have EXACTLY the balance for 1 last spin to the penny, but the black box appears saying insufficient funds or whatever. As I haven't seen it for a while I thought maybe an update had got rid of the error. IIRC you reload the game, toggle the stake up and down again to the correct amount and it lets you spin it off.

LOL...that reads pretty much exactly how I see the game. It is, as you say, a crashingly small sample size but I have seen it numerous times, a couple of sessions without a single bonus so over 1k spins, then it comes in 3 or 4 times in 500-odd spins and when it does come in frequently, the returns are shit. You have quite a decent bonus frequency overall, judging by the 4 weeks averaged, must be playing the Dazza affiliate RTP version. In fact, you must be playing the Dazza affiliate RTP version with bullshit icing on top, as you managed 597x which is just pure fantasy for me in the last year. After a couple of good seasons with runs like you describe in your 110% line, I am getting twatted so far this year, it's been awful in every way; bonus fequency and returns both.

The difference is that the 'black box' doesn't appear. It just repeats that sequence

This week I was back down to an average of 375 spins per bonus. Where did this 460 figure come from? I started reading this thread from the beginning to try and find out, gave up after about 8 pages but it is funny reading the same gripes then as now.
Problem is, the base game has gone to pot. If I'm allegedly getting the bonus more frequently than average then I shouldn't be on 83% RTP over the last two weeks. But then again it's weird how the bonus stays at around 20% of the spins taken to get it. As my spin average went up for a week, so did the bonus winnings, as it went down again so did the winnings. There's no direct correlation per bonus but there is on a weekly basis over 20 or so bonuses. That's the only 'suspicious' thing I've noticed. I'm fully prepared to admit it may be just a coincidence.

I'm still gonna keep records but, as of today, I'm not gonna do 1000+ spins a day. Just a few here and there.
So, after 36000 spins my biggest bonus was that 597x, biggest base win was 450x. Had 89 bonuses averaging 396.42 spins apart, average bonus win 77.38x
My overall personal RTP, which includes about 6 or 7 thousand spins before I started counting properly is 97.94%
And the only site where it was consistently awful was Paddy Power!
