But what is it though? The 50,000x bet or the 1m + xbet? Now for the RTP to be kosher it wold have to be the 50,000 that's factored in which is what I think you're getting at. In which case it's stooooopid having the pay tables that infer wins 22x greater.
Or is it a case of if somebody won 1.1m x bet and was only paid 50,000x, the game factors the limit in and adds the unpaid amount back into the RTP which sounds farcical when typing it.
Or is it simply not possible to get those kind of results? In which case the game should say so, specifically.
I think it must work like those RTG slots like Raindance which will automatically stop the bonus when 2500x bet is reached or whatever it is, so the RTP is based around that as a maximum result irrespective of what stupidity is shown on the reels. This means that effectively ALL the thousands of reel combinations in FS that COULD pay >50,000x MUST be in the 'pool of balls' as
@ChopleyIOM puts it, at the same 50,000x result MINUS preceding pays in the bonus until that point. It's the only way I can see it be both fair and to make the right RTP over time.
So some sort of code which says "any@50,000> = 50,000" or something.
@trancemonkey would know and then could stop me going on with this ballcocks...
