Most Annoying Affiliate Program of 2018 intro:

"Casinomeister has been in business for twenty years, and we have always had a page dedicated to “advertising” or how to become Accredited. Every day I get spam mails like “Hi, do you have traffic? We are a new affiliate program with great deals blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.” These get deleted – especially if they are coming from a free webmail service like gmail or yahoo"

Or they get forwarded to me to deal with

Well done to all our winners, I know I am new to the forum about six months but I have seen for myself the support you guys give out @TradaCasino @Videoslots only to mention two of them, its a great forum and I have loved 95% of it yes I do like the odd argument, the odd jokes, some freebies, but for me personally its not just about the reps the mods or the casinos but its to each and everyone of us who make this forum without us doing this where would the online casinos be? Big shout out to @JGslots for telling me about this place.

 

[Mouche12]

A webcast from the boss.

Sorry - I had to laugh!

Bryan said Tra-da! casino (like a poor magician concluding a trick) - which is exactly how I said it... until I met the CEO at the meister meet a few years back and he told me it should be pronounced "Trader Casino".

Good to know I'm not the only one!

I would like to add my congratulations to all the winners (of the GOOD awards), and extreme thanks to the CM team for all their very hard work in putting the list together

[dionysus]

alright, we need an official stance here - ive been saying in my head TRAH-duh (rhyme: Sp. nada)

edit: eng: rhymes with straw +duh (less inflection/stress 2nd syllable)

 

[TradaCasino]

OK so officially it's pronounced 'Tray-da', however there are some staff members who always pronounce it as 'Trah-dah' - so essentially.... you can pronounce it whatever way you want!

The CEO's South African accent must have made it sound like 'Trader' @KasinoKing but he was saying 'Tray-da' (or so he maintains!)

Looking forward to seeing you all next week

Rachel.

It looks like you guys have now started a debate in the office
We have 3 different pronunciations...
Personally, I say it phonetically as TRAY-DA.

Conor

 

[dionysus]

TRAY-da (duh)
TRAH- da (duh)
tra- DAH (for the magically-inclined crowd)


I hope ya'll know you dont get three extra awards next yr just for pronounciation

 

[dionysus]

oh, and no honourary noms for trader

 

[TradaCasino]

TRAY-da (duh)
TRAH- da (duh)
tra- DAH (for the magically-inclined crowd)


I hope ya'll know you dont get three extra awards next yr just for pronounciation

 

[L&L-Jan]

I would't hold my breath . I was supposed to get a consolation prize but my PM was competly ignored.

I missed this comment and now im going to open my PMs again

Please thank @Tirilej as she pointed it out !

 

[deepsky2]

Congrats to all the winners and to everyone who put this all together.
Was really good to see a tie this year to recognize more than just one as the best casino as there are so many who are really are making an effort.
Maybe not only have best casino winner but a runner up and 3rd place winner.

 

[dunover]

TRAY-da (duh)
TRAH- da (duh)
tra- DAH (for the magically-inclined crowd)

Yeah, rhymes with 'Gaydar' but with a 'Tr'. I know 'cos Tony told me in Berlin.

 

[goatwack]

Always had it down as Trah-Da. Any other pronunciation is obviously wrong

Excellent work - a great read B

The best Slots article was interesting, in particular the last part about the big developers.

I personally think Microgaming and WMS lost their way a bit when they introduced games from other developers that don't have the same familiar feel. I stopped thinking of them as "Microgaming slots" at that point and while I will always be partial to Thunderstruck and IR, I don't look out to their releases anymore - they are just one of many now with no obvious differentiation.

With WMS, I think SG made a big mistake by putting them in the same branding camp as games from Barcrest and other developers. WMS had a reputation for fantastic games and that has been totally diluted by inferior brands - well maybe "inferior" is the wrong choice of word but certainly "different" and for me, much less appealing. Again, I no longer think of WMS as a brand worth looking out for and I no longer play them (obviously Rhino or Montezuma will always be exceptions!).

One other thing regards Evil Players and SE fraud. That has had a major impact on players. Casinos are now so hot on getting KYC in place up front it got to a point where it is just not worth the aggro. I signed up to a casino last year that wanted 8 different things from me!!! Not going to happen...I moved on.
