January Slots Competitions Open

[Simmo!]

Hi guys,

The January Casinomeister/Slot Junkies slot tournaments are now open. I've also rolled the 32Red Progressive Challenge into the Slot Junkies site (www.slotjunkies.info) now too so you can take part in these now via the Player Lounge instead of via Email.

Because a lot of my contacts at the casinos were taking a break, its a bit slow off the mark but i expect to be adding more this week. So far we have:

- Thunderstruck @ 32Red
- Dino Might @ Roxy Palace
- Multi Slot @ Sands Of The Caribbean *
- Major Millions **
- King Cashalot (just shy of $1 million at the mo!!!) **
- Tunzamunni **


* The "Multi Slot" one at Sands is interesting...you can play ANY slot game you want - brings an element of skill into it as you have to pick the right game! I'm keen to see how this one does as i may do more like this if its popular.

** The last three mentioned also have the 30% Jackpot share split among all competitors who qualify - read the rules for info if you are unfamiliar with the Progressive Challenges.

I also have "Jungle Jim" to add this week but need to talk to the casino rep to clarify prizes before i can add it.

Please also note some rule changes, partly because of the "Progressive Challenge" and partly to make it a bit more competitive. These are simply the introduction of a minimum wager (low), a slight increase in the turnover required and a maximum one prize per player per competition.

Feedback from the last comp from casinos was predicatbly mixed with some casinos doing very well and some not so well. As a result I have also decided that there were probably too many competitions running so i am limiting it to 10 a month from now on so the casinos get a better spread on returns.

Winners from December's comp will be announced shortly and prize claims verified by the casinos over the course of the next week or two. Winners will have their prizes credited to their accounts by the sponsors. I'll update this thread as i know more.

Good luck!

Simmo!

Just want to thank you for all of your efforts regarding this competition. I hope it will continue to grow. Happy New Year!

I had fun, Simmo! This is a great idea and I wish you all the success with it!

 

[Slotster!]

Brilliant stuff! Cheers Simmo, you deserve a load of credit for this! Top stuff!

 

[Simmo!]

Thanks guys but its down to all of us to make it successful

Like my cryptic email...? Or rather, "Half" an email as Fruitbat pointed out to me - lol. Am i alone in this - sometimes I go to CTRL+V (paste) in a URL and Outlook Express sends the email instead...grrrr.

But if you are here, i guess you don't need the other half anyway, as it was just this URL

[Slotmachine]

Thanks Simmo!

Good stuff again. I tried my best in 32Red's Spring Break and made a final push at Intercasino playing Bejeweled with all the $$ I had available. My bad luck continues it seems but it was worth the effort. I also opened up new accounts (or re-activated locked ones) in casinos, and in order to support this effort, I was sure to tell the casinos that Simmo!'s challenge was the reason for activation!

This month is my favorite combo 32RED + T'Struck. I'll be there...

Cheers,
SM

Good luck everyone! Last competition was a lot of fun. Will be playing Roxy's right now. Will play a little bit at 32 Red when my poker withdraw hits Neteller. 32 Red doesn't have an Instacash option =/

 

[Slotmachine]

Oh, forgot to mention that I really like the multi-slot tourney at Sands - I think I'm activating my Sands account I like to be able to play my own favorite slots and still have a chance at the prizes! On the other hand, it's nice to have single-slot comps as well.

Cheers,
SM

When will the December winners be announced... and given their prizes?

 

[realwtfsup]

Well Hitting pretty good on Dino Mite at Roxy. Have only hit the 3 scatters and got the max win in the bonus round 3 times now.

Think those will probably be beaten but never know!

 

[Simmo!]

They will filter through when the casinos return to work and get to the stats. As prveiously mentioned, should all happen in the first 2 weeks of the month

Simmo!

When that one is in a good mood it's really fun. It's nice to get the max in the bonus round!

At th erisk of sounding spammy, have you guys checked out the promotions at Sands Of The Caribbean? I just downloaded it to take part in the comp, and the promotions look unusually generous. Like $100 per month *no deposit required* and an extra $50 for slots players wagering $6k or more. Also i notice the $50 signup bonus is x25 bonus only before it can be withdrawn?

KK would know how this rates but it sounds good to me?

KK?

Simmo!

Yep - I think it sounds TOTAL CRAP!

The SUB is OK, but the starting figure of $50 makes it not terribly attractive.
But the monthly $100 for wagering $6,000...?
Give me a break - would not touch that with a barge pole!

That's $2000 more WR than their sister Omni, and (relatively) a whopping $3,500 more than Intercasinos monthly match!!!

The only good thing (if I understand it correctly) is that you are not 'tied' into the bonus because it's not deposit related. i.e. You could deposit $100, wager $50, hit a mega win & withdraw the lot without restriction.
This bonus is more like comp rewards than a 'normal' bonus.
In fact, now that I think about it - maybe it's actually quite good!

 

[Simmo!]

Thanks KK.


.

But the monthly $100 for wagering $6,000...?

Crap for a low-roller maybe yes i can see your point. But for a medium roller like me i'd hit $6k in a session or two no problem so actually i think thats quite okay

Simmo!

The sands bonus is about the best I have seen latley
Wager 6000 in a month and get 100 credit the next which (unless I read it wrong ) is fully withdrawal straight away (no wr ) and there can be no claims of bonus abuse
So if you are a player then you get 100 totaly free

 

[Simmo!]

The December winners for Cashville, Pollen Nation and Spring Break have now been verified and should have had their casino accounts credited at Challenge, Music Hall and 32Red with the prizes accordingly.

Kudos to Trish at Challenge/Music Hall and Lee @ 32Red for being so fast to respond

Congrats to w2album and Tim5ny for winning, and to paul02085 and pinababy69 for the runners up places on Spring Break

Simmo!

 

[Pinababy69]

Thanks so much Simmo for all the work you have put into these competitions. Had a blast playing. And thanks to 32Red for sponsoring a great tourney. Now to get busy with Thor in January.

I was going to analyze this bonus offer until I noticed that players from my country (Finland) are excluded.. so my analysis in short is that it's not a very good offer

I emailed their pitboss to see if he could make an exception. If not, I won't be playing there, not because I hunt for bonuses, but because I feel it's unfair to exclude all players from a certain country on account of some unscrupulous ones...

I mean, how exactly does one abuse a bonus offer with a pre-WR of 6,000

Anyway, it's not the end of the world, I'm happy to participate in the tournaments at 32Red and my fresh account at Intercasino

Cheers,
SM

And Roxy i hope They have been very supportive too!

 

[Simmo!]

"Thunderstruck" winners at Roxy in December have now been verified and paid via their casino accounts.

"Bejeweled" claims at Intercasino are currently being verified and should be sorted by Friday.

Simmo!

 

[realwtfsup]

Thanks for the $300 Roxy! Had a blast losing it all on Loaded hehe.

 

[Slotmachine]

Congrats on the wins guys

Sands of the Caribbean is not bothering to reply to my latest query about the loyalty bonus program. It's been several days so it's starting to seem I'm a persona non grata at Sands because of my nationality (or is it skin color? us Finns, we're pale most of the year..just ask Conan O'Brien). Sure looks like I'm not going to be playing at Sands

Anyway, I think I'll give Roxy a shot if my this month's gambling allocation allows it. I'm going to play some at 32Red as usual, although Simmo! has posted a pretty solid win candidate there:notworthy, and if I still have the money, I'll open an account at Roxy and take part in the tournament there.

Cheers,
SM

Okay Simmo, I'm loaded for bear at 32Red, and off to see what kind of damage I can do with that sheepfarmer Thor. I just took a quick peek at what I gotta beat, YIKES!!!!! Nice hit Simmo, and nice payout. Gonna give it a try. Hope the gambling gods are with me, and that my lucky stone has some mojo left in it.
