Hello. My name is Chris Colby. I am the President of Galewind Software.
We've been working on an addition to our bonus processing system, and we've come to a place where we could go one way or another. So, I thought that I would get some input from the players.
Let's say that you have a bonus, it is limited to game play in any/all Slots, and that it has a bonus bet limit of $5. That is, you can only bet a maximum of $5 on any spin.
We've concluded that we could enforce this maximum game bet in one of 2 ways.
1. When you click spin on a bet of $10, the game prompts you with info that the maximum game bet is $5.
2. When you click spin on a bet of $10, the game win/loss uses the $10, but the bonus wager requirement (WR) uses the maximum bet of $5. There is no prompt.
Personally, I've always hated prompts, so my from-the-gut vote is for number 2. However, it may be that other players would find it confusing that they bet $10 but their WR only went down by $5.
So, what do other players think? Thanks in advance for your input.
(BTW - If you play some Blackjack, or Video Poker, or something other than Slots, then this Slots-only bonus just ignores these bets. There is no problem in playing non-Slot games while you have this bonus, and there is no prompt.)
