*shrugs - end of day, your contest, your rules - if you deem it fair, its your call
though to be honest, I dont think glass was being nasty, but trying to be helpful

Hard not to hone such particular skills, that one more or less automatically develops, when hanging around here 24/7 for years!

 

[helenakp]

Ok just wana be fair to everyone and yes we have a winnerS incrediblestuff and Glassheart gets each 25 euros...Hope this way its fair..Guys PM me your details and congrats on your wins

 

[robby811]

It would be more fair if the battle was more days ago or no date / day posted

My respect and u allready got a title for that But should such a contest not be random ?!? Same chance for everybody depends on luck ?

It's not as easy as it sounds most of the time...so some credit to Incredible.

I seen the answer and immediately thought of going through the Battle of the Slots thread to see a screenshot from Helena.

It's time consuming going through pages one by one, and it gets tedious real quick to the point you just give up

And the search function here isn't the best. I tried to search the thread for posts only belonging to Helena, but it didn't return any one of her posts, just posts with Helena's name mentioned

I was already too late anyway

 

[incrediblestuff]

25,- received already, and here's hoping i can get this towards the next player too!

Going to put it into V&J, where i have a Sunday 25% Bonus, which is used only after i lose the cash (hoping i don't need it) so that's 31 for 'glory'
Will report if and when things get interesting or depressing

 

[robby811]

at the end it was a quicki comp 50% Fun compare to them before....

and if i would think about i had easy find it the same way like incredible because Helena won one month later then me at Battle of SLots Weekend of FruitWarp if i remember there find the nick and then VS Battle lobby check yesterday Birds battle.

But i did not think that way i just want to do a guess , like the others that take a part. May be some call it stupid but for me just Fair Play thinking...

 

[incrediblestuff]

Hey Robby, that's up to the one throwing it i assume? I'm fine with guessing, browsing, or just knowing the answer..i think there hasn't been a single contest where not at least someone has had a small advantage, be it timing, knowledge, or searching skills, and as far as the spirit of this thread goes that's all good: it's not a forum contest, with strict rules, it's a thread where people share their good fortune and post winning stories, which hopefully one day will lead to a huge train of successive winners..

I did my contribution, and i am hoping i am able to do some more, but i won't be nitpicking about what is fair and what is right - on a contest that someone else has thrown - i do have my own set of rules, for when i am handing one out, and that's the only time i worry about it

Don't take that the wrong way, i'm just saying you can make it whatever you deem fair, if you are throwing one - but do feel like you're implying that using one's brain, is not 'Fair Play', which is a bit insulting? Also, the fact that you had only 'half the fun', seems a tad ungrateful, and is not really in the spirit of the thread? Hope i'm just imagining that, and it's due to google translate's lack of sensing a 'vibe'

Let's keep it cheerful!

youre just a big meanie poopoo head
kidding - i just like playing, its a huge bonus to win
youre right about advantages - theres those where in a guess the slot some players dont have access to some providers, theres time differentiations where some cant play because theyre working/sleeping, and lets face it even trivia comes down to smarts (and way back when, when it came down to speed, those with chit-ass connections were always out in the cold.

As long as its fair and fun, im good

 

[Takkaone]

Found the answer via forum-search? Nice one...

My 2 cents regarding the question "fair or not?": As long as the used information / method to find the correct answer is freely available to everyone taking part, i think it is 100% fair.

In my opinion it also deserves a virtual tip of the hat... Seeing that kind of simple and easy solution to solve a problem is a skill that gets used way to little these days.

P.S.: Was laughing out loud for real as i read how you got the answer - mostly laughing about myself for copying the results of the battle into excel and trying to filter for a username (at least partly) similar to helenakp... And for feeling clever while doing this...

 

[helenakp]

Haha Takkaone here is my screenshot in case i run another comp and youll have my nickname

 

[helenakp]

and forgot to post the screenshots of my wildline

 

[Supababe]

ROFL!
I saw the comp in my email and the first thing I did was ‘cheat’ but I still would have got it wrong lol.

I was going with Takkaone’s answer of 474 too after using ctrl + F in battle lobby and found a player starting with ‘hele’.

Sometimes it’s about speed and problem solving lol

Would have been easier just to press F3 on the lobby of the Birds on a Wire Freeroll and search for a name from there

Eidt: Or as Supababe says Ctrl+F for the same function.

Gonna chip in the next few days with a ickle prize myself, just awaiting my maiden Videoslots withdrawal to come through and it's all stations go!

Will only be £20 but it's about bloody time I put something into the proverbial pot so to speak

Also gives me time to think of some original question.

It'll probably be a 'Guess the amount' one. But still. Gotta keep this train a rollin!

 

[zellie]

This is great goatwack

[dionysus]

20 Free Spins in our game Esqueleto Mariachi.

Voucher code: esq100418

cheers, already been posted in the free spins thread

 

[goatwack]

Ahh thanks. It may be completely the wrong section but it saved me going to the free spins thread!

 

[goatwack]

Ok you lucky people, listen up. The competition you've all been waiting for has finally arrived!

Like I said, I'm handing someone £20 for merely guessing the closest answer to this groundbreaking riddle.

As is custom, I shall only deal in Skrill or Paypal, but I can do M & S vouchers on request

Usual formalities, at least 50 posts and say, 3 months CM membership. No riff raff please

Last entries to be submitted by, ooh Friday at the time of this post, so that way most should have had a pop.

To wit, the question:

What was my Videoslots Cashback amount on the 9th April?

Get close to the number and get rich!*



*ok not rich but try and double it and pass it on

** in the event of a tie- break, I'll pick my favourite

Tally ho!

 

[dionysus]

[dionysus]

[dionysus]

[goatwack]

lol, i generally have around 10 tabs open, and even though im watching tv im still surfing lol - my brain doesnt do well being idle

I can PM you the answer for £30 if you like

 

[Chipkin9]

I can PM you the answer for £30 if you like

I'll give you £35 for the answer...final offer!

 

[Chipkin9]

Sounds like ADHD Dion.



Edit: I'm the same for the record (I don't have ADHD either)

 

[dionysus]

I can PM you the answer for £30 if you like

if i had 30 bucks i wouldnt be guessing

 

[Chipkin9]

Thanks for the comp btw Goatie...I'll go with tree bucks fiddy tree (£3.53)

 

[dionysus]

my 2 and a quarter was 225....is your 3.53 a 353

 

[Chipkin9]

my 2 and a quarter was 225....ia your 3.53 a 353

Yes?

I don't understand the question your honour

 

[goatwack]

Ok I've kept the question really simple and edited it without the added extras.

So far we've got 225 & 3.35

If either of you want to edit your answers I'll make one exception. It's simply the race winnings cashback amount I received that time

 

[Chipkin9]

Now is that £225 or £2.25 for Dion?

Let him keep the £255 answer Goat...there's no fucking way you won that much (or is there?)

 

[goatwack]

Now is that £225 for £2.25 Dion?

Let him keep the £255 answer Goat...there' no fucking way you won that much (or is there?)

That would be telling.

But for £35 I would tell

 

[dionysus]

lol, i dont follow the races so ive clue what the prizes are - i took it to mean his total winnings FROM the race winnings
i may be well off base

 

[Chipkin9]

That would be telling.

But for £35 I would tell

Fuck off you robbing con artist...you already got £35 for the answer of tree fiddy tree (Btw you could have just said £3.53 in the PM).

 

[goatwack]

Fuck off you robbing con artist...you already got £35 for the answer of tree fiddy tree (Btw you could have just said £3.53 in the PM).

Yeah fair point.

I forget myself sometimes

 

[dionysus]

youre clearly doing something wrong
for my 35 i got the answer 225 and a little bit of leg

 

[goatwack]

lol, i dont follow the races so ive clue what the prizes are - i took it to mean his total winnings FROM the race winnings
i may be well off base

You don't make things easy do you

Ok I'll re re-edit to just say cashback alright. You win

Oh and have a proper bloody guess will ya

 

[dionysus]

lmao, i swear, wasnt trying to be difficult

 

[dionysus]

lol, anyway, if youre coughing up 20 im guessing you got back more than 20, so ill go....69
because yanno, ive somehow got to get a sketchy reference in somewhere

 

[dionysus]
