You won't actually notice anything happening, but press the PrtScr button, go to your editing software such as Paint, Photoshop etc., open a new blank file and then paste your image in by either pressing CTRL+V or go to Edit then click Paste. Finally, Crop then Save.

:D
 
:thumbsup:
Well bless my soul it works.
All those years I always thought it would make its own file! :eek2:
Now I will be posting screen shots all over the place, ah but no but I wo'nt because I wont even be chasing with the bank holiday bonus. My bad luck has saved me getting back into it.
54% on loaded was actualy my best payout result in a long time, i was consistently getting under 50% all games all software!
So if I do'nt win in the scratchie I will leave alone again until the autumn at the earliest.
Thanks a lot cheekymonkey
hope you and KK do some damage.

Please be careful Rusty - remember why you gave up before.

Your return was even worse than mine today - and mine really sucked!

May-7th:-
Early feature (spin 25) only paid 15xbet.
Then 208 spins of SHITE!
Spins: 233. Wagered: 131 . Result: -44. Bank = 0

Now I have to wait for my 100 scratchcard winnings to come through before I can play on.

So far: played 6 days, lost 6 days.
What has happen to my favorite slot? :what:
 
Have you guys forgotten that Ladbroke's has a rep here now? He hasn't been here since February (lol), but hey, maybe that's just because no one has PM'd him about anything. Worth a shot, at least make him aware of the problems with the scratchcards promo.

Unlucky KK :mad:
Has anyone actualy done ok on loaded since this promo began?
%76 KK %61 KK %86 KK %54 Me %67 KK
Thanks for the reminder KK like I say that slap in the face on loaded was probably the best thing that could happen to me in that regards.
Be nice at if at least you or Monkey or preferably both would get at least one decent hit.
By the way I have found ladbrokes servers to be really slow anyone else had connectivity issues?

Thats not good Avitar lets hope you get some decent wins from the scratchcards you are owed.
I have received an email from Ladbrokes explaining they are having problems sending the link for scratchcards to hotmail addresses and they are asking for alternative email add's.

That is truly awful!! :eek:
I thought my results were bad!
Are you saying you only wagered 100 on days 5 & 7... :eek2:

My return from the slot itself has been diabolical, but todays scratchcard certainly helps to ease the pain.
You never know - I could even break-even by the end of the month... :rolleyes:
.
 
Very nice KK, is that your second 100?

Question:
When is a promotion not a promotion?
Answer:
When it gives the customer a negative experience.

still no scratchie fro me :mad:

Someone has messed up bad at Laddies, I mean they will probably end up losing more players than they gain with this scratchcard issue.

Yep! So far 2 x 0, 2 x 15 & 2 x 100...
I'd settle for the next two to be 2 x 50 to balance it up a bit... ;)

I know what you mean about disappointing. I have had all mine next day so far, but did have a few go astray in previous promotions.
The worst thing was that 'Chinese New Year' scratchcard promo - got 49 losing ones in 24 hrs, then I think Ladbrokes just abandoned the whole thing... :mad:
 
Top prize is 100 in bonus, needing 400 playthru. so yeah, even worth killing for! ^_^

KK - I wagered at least 100 each day! I went over on a couple of days i think, but hardly by much, max 105.
 
The most disappointing thing about this promo is the slot itself.
I can understand why the skeptical out there could easily think the casino has 'tweaked' the payout to recover what they are paying out in scratchcards.
I am even starting to believe it myself after my 7th consecutive losing session, despite getting the free-spins THREE times! :eek:

May-8th:-
Three features; took 24, then 12 then 16 free-spins:-
Feature 1 paid 50x bet. *
Feature 2 paid 13x bet.
Feature 3 paid 28x bet.
* First one triggered with 4 scatters, and then hit 3 scatters during the spins, but still got a poor return...
Spins: 251. Wagered: 111 . Result: -13.

1532 spins so far & I haven't hit so much as 1 half decent win.
Are we all really just being very unlucky.... :what:

Wish I could get one here too (UK) still no sign :eek2:

KasinoKing, they certainly are a poor set of results so far but CheekyMonkey won apparently.

The whole promotion is very intersting logistically as I can imagine someone who won nothing on the scratch cards but wagered heavily would be very disapointed especially when other more casual gamblers were being awarded top prize. So we need to ask is this really likely to happen?

If not then we must assume the scratchcard awards are not random.
There must certainly be a set amount the scratchcards payout per the amount gambled on the promotion.

It would then follow that Ladbrokes would have either decided to lose X amount 's on this promo (X being a very significant number prob 6 figures see x=? below) or they are recouping some promo money by adjusting the payout of the slot accordingly.

Ahh but wait operators can not change the payout of an MG slot can they, or can they?

Where
S=scratchcard average win=20#
D=days in promotion. =31
P=Participants =10,000#
X=total cost of promotion
(#guestimate)

X=S*D*P
X=20*31*10,000
X=6,200,000

Feel free to make your own guesses but I'm sure it is a very large chunk of money, all very interesting.

I am sure I shoud be doing something else with my time though :p
 
Thanks Avatar.
The slot is supposed to have an average payout of 95% though is it not?
Assuming most people played until they reached 100 that would be an average profit of 5 per player.
If the average scratchcard win is 20 then that would be a net loss of 15 per player.
So one or more of the following must be true;

1) Average Scratchcard wins are much lower (the evidence so far does not suggest this)
2) Ladbrokes have decided to spend a 6 figure sum on a promo
3) The slot has a much lower average payout than 95%

Still no scratchcard :mad:
 
lol, i agree with you entirely. In theory! ;)

People seem to be doing a lot worse than they should.

I've had about a 50% return at best.

Oooh I got another card today! And it lost. This really blows!

And I'm still owed another 5 :mad:
 
Bad, Good & Ugly...

The good cards must be reserved for KK and Monkey :p

Bad: Not today - my scratchcard was ZILCH! :(

Good: Half way though today's wagering, finally hit something postworthy!

Old Attachment (Invalid)

Ugly: (One for VWM)
Had terrible trouble processing the screenshot, and even making this post as my PC has slowed to a virtually locked-up snails pace.
Only just booted it up to play at Laddies, and only had Outlook & Excel open in the background.
Not even playing the casino, it's idle - so why is it using 91% of my CPU...? :what:

Old Attachment (Invalid)

{Edit} As soon as I hit the 'Collect' button, the CPU usage dropped right off.
So what do you make of that..?

KK
 
Nice hit KK!
Hope moaning about poor payout % works the same for me :p
mind you I have to win on my scratchcard first and it is getting silly now jus trying to receive it.
After they emailed me to explain the probs with hotmail and to give them an alternative address I did then they emailed me to the new address telling me that hotmail was'nt working and to give them an alternative address!
Doh!
One day a scratchcard shall be mine!
 
They've also slipped up a bit on timings.
In the T&C it's all in GMT, and it says it ends 2359 on 31st may GMT.

So technically you could play at 0031 on 1st June and still get a card.

I played at 0031 on 3rd May, and they wouldn't send me a scratchcard for the 2nd.
I brought up the gamelogs and GMT issue with them, and they still said I hadn't played.
So I explained it slowly, carefully, and politely, and asked if I was correct in my thinking, and they eventually said they'd send me another card. To be fair, it doesn't specifically say days run in GMT as opposed to real time BST, but it totally infers it, and then theres the 1st june issue. Game logs are in BST, so that's not a great shout!

No loss for them - another losing card no doubt! :D

That really sucks. :mad:

I checked mine & most were sent at exactly 11:00am, with a few at 12:00, 14:00 & 15:00.
All arrived next day (I use Pipex DSL for my mail)

This really sucks too - today's card:-

Old Attachment (Invalid)

And this treble sucks... after my first winning session yesterday, today was my biggest loss:-

May-10th:-
No features, no big wins, no fun, just a loud sucking noise from the bank balance area...
Spins: 170. Wagered: 114 . Result: -61. :axeman:

:(
 
ul RUSTY

I played last saturday and sunday for this promotion. I to got mucked about over the hotmail issue but i finally received my two cards today.
First card 100
Second card 50

Definately worth the wait 5 sucks rusty but it could have been 0.

Finally!

Sorry kk, I think they mistook your card for mine today ;)
Click to expand...
I dunno - I wasn't too pissed with the one I got today...

Old Attachment (Invalid)

However, it was another 'bad day at the office' on the slot itself...

May 11th:-
Finally got a feature - a mere 423 spins since the last one... :(
Won 29 off a 1 spin - eased the pain a little bit, but way too small, way too late;
Spins: 213. Wagered: 116 . Result: -35.

Oh well, thanks to the scratchcards I am actually still 98 up on the deal at this point....
 
I am glad for you KK I hope you come out at least even.
I did'nt even bother claiming my scratchcard but played munchkins, went nearly 300 spins, hit feature 14*bet lol -50% payout.
Tried summertime 210 spins for feature 15*bet lol -%50 payout
tried starscape 50 spins no feature -50% payout
ran out of money
seems the average payout on any slot with my account is around 52% which is kind of anomalous.
Here is a funny thing though,
Increase your bet size on a slot and there is a delay before you can spin. Why?
what is the software calculating?
Just tried it on halloweenies and there is no delay so may have just been coincidence.
halloweenies 125 spins before hitting feature 16* bet
carried on hit feature 3 more times at 16*, 10* , 9* bet before out of money again.(never ahead but at least I got a game)

So that is every slot has been 100 spins + before hitting free spins
out of 6 lots of free spins none payed more than 16* bet size

I really should have not been so weak willed and played but those returns were very unfortunate if I was getting a fair (random) game.

How long the scratchard hit your email after the wagering requirement met?
Click to expand...

4 Days for me(i know i said 5 my mistake) but it is supposed to be the next day.
If you have read the thread you will know that if you have a hotmail address you need to give them an alternative address to receive the scratchie link.
Once claimed the bonus should be in your account within 6 hours.
Good luck

That's not right.
I think the rules say "next day" or "within 24hrs".
All mine have arrived by 3pm the following day at the latest.

Good luck is correct though - you may need lots of it! :eek2:

Was thinking of having a go at this promotion but reading the terms and conditions I saw this :

1. To qualify to receive the scratchcard/s you must be an existing Ladbrokes Casino customer with a real money account, deposit and turnover at least 100 (or currency equivalent) on Loaded slot. Only available on our Loaded slot game.

Does this mean a deposit is required on the day the 100 is played? I assume as long as there is in the account it's fine but I wanted to clear this with people who had already had a go.

And has anyone had trouble getting the scratchcard emails with a blueyonder domain address?

You do not need to make a deposit just turn over 100 but make sure you play the 100 either side of midnight as I think it is reset at 12pm
As for your email I think it is just a problem with hotmail but you could always call them freephone to be sure.

KK I was told by customer support 6 hours but maybe I or they are wrong.I know the scratchccard is issued next day but I am refering to the time it takes the money to hit your account once you make a claim from a winning card.

Oooops! Sorry, my bad. :o
I haven't noticed when it hits the account - but it's been there every day so far.
I normally get home from work, check & claim my scratchcard winnings, then play.
The next evening the funds are already there when I get home.
But today is Saturday, I'm up early (can't sleep!), so lets go check...
Nope! The 50 I claimed yesterday afternoon is not there yet.
So it's obviously not 6 hours then.

Nice hits KK. :thumbsup:

I've just switched my email address in my Laddies account back to bt.com so hopefully I will start receiving them as normal again.

I've had a 50 and a 25 this week but still owed about 3 more.

I can't stop hitting the free spins on Loaded but Ladies Nite is absolutely murdering me this week.

Let you know later what I get.
