Videoslots Casino Race
TBH, until today I never paid much attention to the race, nor what place I am. I looked at it as a few extra bucks every Monday, nothing more, nothing less.
However, I had a closer look just now and it left me fuming, to put it mildly.
You are currently awarding a share of the weekly pot to 11288 players, highest $500, lowest $2.40. This week I amassed some 115438 points, putting me in 42nd place. All good so far.
But looking at the prize money makes me cringe. Let's just keep the calculation simple at $0.20 / spin
- 42nd place - $42.40 prize money: I wagered $23,087.60 to accumulate 115,438 points
- 11,288th place - $2.40 prize money: The player wagered $18.80 to accumulate 94 points
Can you see what I mean? This screams of unfairness. I wagered 1,228x more than the player in last place, yet the prize money is only appr. 17x as much. At roughly 4% margin on the slots, VS made from my wagering $923 in revenue. The player in last place generated $0.77 in revenue for VS. I get some 40 bucks, he/she get's $2.40. So I am subsidizing the prize money for those where you actually make a loss.
Who at VS thought that a player doing 100 spins @ $0.20 is enough loyalty for a share of the weekly prize pool?
I would suggest that you re-evaluate your prize structure. Maybe cut 2,000 places from the bottom and start rewarding better those players who actually are bringing you revenues. The TOP100 should not receive less than $100 in prize money as that would fairly reflect their activity and contribution level to your casino revenues.
Looking forward to your reply. And please not the generic "We will forward it to the relevant department".
