That little information box you only see when not qualified would be really useful if we could pull it up at any time and see our current deposit and wager status.

 

[Chipkin9]

Just had this, if it happens to be a prize winner then give it to the next person since i won last time.

You are a fabulous bastard Ian..

I resigned myself to defeat but received an Email from VS asking for my Name and Email, obvisouly this was due to you forfeiting your own placemnt, thank you very much...I wish and hope you every bit of luck in the future

 

[paul7388]

Thanks a lot VS for a great prize and for running the battle weekend and CM promotion again.

And WD to Reelsoffun and Chipkin good luck with your prizes.

And that was awful generous of you to donate your prize to Chip Ian so thanks

 

[Jono777]

Great stuff winners, don't forget to post us screenshots of your wheels please, Especially your golden wheel Paul

 

[paul7388]

Great stuff winners, don't forget to post us screenshots of your wheels please, Especially your golden wheel Paul

Shit Jon i never thought i would ever get to see a bronze wheel in my life. Gold lol

 

[Jono777]

Shit Jon i never thought i would ever get to see a bronze wheel in my life. Gold lol

I know mate, excellent stuff, not to over excite you but think the minimum cash prize is like 200 notes on the gold

All I end up with is a rickety old, rusty cart wheel with a couple of spokes missing

You mean i won't get my usual 1.75x WB for 150 spins I normally win on wheels

 

[Reelsoffun]

Firstly thanks @Team.Videoslots for another fun promo and my first one I won, maybe my luck is changing I hope so as March was a very bad month

Secondly, What a star Ian is for giving his prize away, come on everyone, 3 cheers for that guy! A classic case of true community spirit!

I believe its 100 min on gold ( as the bandit had some on a recent video ) so its certainly a nice prize!

 

[nikantw]

Congrats all winners, both from comp and rewards..... What a nice start for April!!

 

[bjtaz44]

My greatest fan and advocate of no readjustment or levels x

Easy now lol....I sense the sarcasm, just returned from a holiday so in a good mood.... yes I would like a crack at the special wheel nikantw speaks of, but I'm only level 221 and they don't offer anything extra so its all a joke. Maybe I can get them to change level 222 as a double spin highest wheel possible.

 

[Deleted member 43161]

Thanks for another fun filled weekend Videoslots and thanks for running another comp @Team.Videoslots, I managed to get 143 rewards and used them all last night, got £120 from them all.

Congrats to all the winners and good luck with the jackpot wheels, I won the silver last time and got £150 from it, so I'm crossing my fingers for you guys, have a good week everyone.

 

[geordiecolin]

What a legend Ian is? Giving away his prize has to be one of the most selfless acts I have witnessed this year. Take a bow mate

 

[Sonict]

I redeemed my 74 rewards which was 369 spins and it was typical of Reactoonz for what I usually get since I had no gargatoon and the wins were low. I won $33+ in the end. It is better than nothing. I am not happy about not being able to play in any freerolls since the new requirements are crazy high for low rollers unless you are lucky. All because some people abused it, you decided to go way overboard in solving it. :/

 

[09237653]

Some stats on my rewards, did fantastic in the battles but a 75% return on tokens.

55x 4 tokens = £40 return 1 garga (220 spins)
52x 5 tokens = £60 return 1 garga (260 spins)
80x 6 tokens = £49 return no garga (480 spins)(!)

Still cashed out 100 and got some decent playtime on carnival queen and others.
Cheers VS looking forward to Thursday.

Okay first I have to say Video slots is my number 1 casino that I play at. These new requirements for the special events suck balls. I have deposited 350 since April 1 and only managed 1227 ex-points so slots have been evil. These new requirements only favour the bigger depositors or the very few lucky winners. Personally, I would much rather the battle requirements be changed to min deposit of 100 and get 1000xp. Or at least grant a dispensation for players that have been unlucky with deposits. Just my take on the situation @Team.Videoslots
I can guarantee one thing; if they make the requirements too tough then they are going to lose players in the long run (may be a short run boost). Remember it's the minnows such as I that keep the casinos afloat (no shade on the higher rollers here)

Exactly my feelings too.
I know many, many members who are in a similar situation and are now looking for a new ‘favourite’ place to play.
Last straw for many I think.

You are aware that you don't need to start counting from April 1st though but can go back 30 days already? All you played for from Mars 3rd is counting up to today also.
I've hardly played any in the latest 14 days but a lot before that, and can still play every battle.

Well crap because I have more than covered that wagering but I thought @Team.Videoslots that the special requirements for end of April battle were 2500xp IN the month of April which knocks me out unless I get midway lucky.

In the end of April it is paid battles too if I remember correct, so maybe nothing to fight for reaching if you can't afford playing them
I will play as long as I have free battles left and then I'll leave.

I am unsure if I understand the above post correctly?

Are you suggesting that we will be unable to access paid battles unless we reach a wagering requirement first?

Just that weekend. It would just be one huge where they put in 60k I think. I'm sure someone remember it better than me.
It would be back to normal weekend battles the month after though.

She is meaning at the end of the month instead of the freeroll battle weekend in April they are having one battle all weekend with a lot of money added and rebuys. But like the freerolls you need to have wagered so much to enter.

 

[paul7388]

Heres the info geordiecolin.

Hi there Everyone,

We have a new battle weekend concept!

We would like to introduce a new Battle Weekend concept coming up at the end of April: €60,000 Added – Weekend Madness! Between 27th – 28th April Videoslots will be running a 48-hour Battle where we are adding €60,000 to the pot.

The buy-in to join the Battle is €1 and the buy-in will be added directly to the pot. So, if for example 1,000 players join, the pot will be €61,000.

This is a re-buy Battle and you can make up to 10 re-buy’s right up until 15 mins before the end of a Battle. All re-buys are added to the prize-pool. For the buy-in and each re-buy you get 250 spins for a chance to take home the first prize.

In order to join the Battle, you need the buy-in of €1 and you need to have achieved 2,500 XP from the 1st of April until the start of the Battle.

The name of the Game will be announced at a later stage in April.

The SnG Freeroll Battle Weekend will be back in May!

As from the 1st of April the requirement for freeroll Battles will change, from then you will need to have earned a minimum of 2,500 XP in the last 30 days before the start of any of the Freeroll Battles that you want to participate in.

Best regards,
Team Videoslots.

 

[sueyh]

@Team.Videoslots

I can't agree more with osulle.
My suggestion will be why don't you have 2 requirements to enter free battles?

You either deposit $20 and wager 2500 xp point
or
deposit $300 and wager 500-1000 xp point.

I don't think it is fair that someone who deposited $300 can't access free battles when someone who deposited $20 can.-If somebody can manages 2500 xp points from $20-$60 deposit, that means that person more likely have won something nice and withdraw more than they deposited.
As far as I remember casinos get profit from deposit not from wagering.

I have put some thought into this but if you are going to put on a paying battle then you shouldn't have such a higher barrier for entry. So if you want to play in that super duper end of April battle you have to have wagered 2500xp and pay a max of 11 (if you pay for all the re-buys). This makes no sense to me whatsoever and could deter me from playing at Videoslots in the future. Yes, I may be salty due to the 450 deposit with a dismal RTP that leaves me with over 1000xp to achieve in order to enter that particular battle. Kinda wants to make me give up on Videoslots totally.


Edit: Do not get me started on the lack of spins in the Clash of the spins because as far as I can tell geting them is damn hard. Add all these crap changes to the reduction of the Play'nGo RTP's and I am not a happy camper.


Edit EditL add to that I have only been able to place in one battle in 17 in the last few days. So I am not happy with the changes

 

[geordiecolin]

Thanks for the clarifications all.
From now on when I deposit at Videoslots I shall be depositing just to play rather than depositing in order to qualify for anything. It looks like I need to make a decision about which casino to choose as my new go to casino.
Besides all of the changes I have managed to "win" about 15 free spins in the battles this past week.
It is just no longer worthwhile other than for pure gameplay and cash out times. Even then us in the UK are restricted due to the lower rtp. I played legacy of Egypt which is a play and go for the first time since the changes last night and £50 went super quick on minimal stakes. Feck that!

After Videoslots my go to casinos are Betvictor and Verajohn. Vera is accredited but AFAICT Betvictor is not but haven't had any issues at all with BetVictor and minimal with VeraJohn (a pain to be verified there).

Off to Trada and Casumo for me x x

I hear you @geordiecolin, especially in this day and age. If the industry is not careful we will all be joining the quit gambling forum

 

[greylady]

I ditched VS for Trada back in October, just I am sulking with them at the moment for not giving me play time

Oh and AllBritish too

 

[Reelsoffun]

@Team.Videoslots

Just scrap the clash of spins ( not come across ANYONE that likes em ) and use the saved cost to give more players a little something, like errrm the weekly reel race did, maybe? lol

Or Scrap the clash of spins and increase the WB slightly, which is a fair level field eg more you wager the more you get plain and simples.

Or scrap the clash of spins and pocket the saving so you dont have to cut more stuff.

Just in case you missed it, im not a fan of clash of spins LOL

 

[Sonict]

I enjoyed the VS freerolls as it was unique and cool, but they went way too far on tightening up the freeroll requirements so it isn't worth it to me as a low roller to qualify for them. Since I had to qualify for the freerolls and I also liked redeeming them, I would usually stream the sessions since it would be worth it, but I will miss doing that now. I totally get why you had to change it, but you went way too far in the other direction in attempts to solve the problem. :/

 

[Dinahnana]

I ditched VS for Trada back in October, just I am sulking with them at the moment for not giving me play time

The sulk has just started with me. Seems the slots are super tight and it's getting harder to place in the regular battles. Add that to the races being replaced with the non-existing Clash of the spins and increasing requirements in order to participate in battles and I think VS may lose some loyal customers. Sad to say as VS has an awesome team and reps here but in their quest to offset taxes and fees they may lose more players in the long run. May take a while but it will happen. I am an easy to please player, didn't get salty when VS told me no birthday bonus for me a regular player but with all these new changes that seem to favour only the bigger depositors has me pissed. I don't mean to dump on VS but sometimes a gal just needs to get it out.

@Team.Videoslots just tagging you into our voices of discontent ;D

 

[dpp00]

well had a few weeks of all the new changes and have to say much prefer the new system the wheels are much more fun than 5 spins on reactoonz,

and id much rather play the £500 cash freerolls again than get 5 spins which is my normal if i manage anything, i think the month to qualify is better too,

ive never played to qualify for the freerolls but somehow nearly always do my average deposit is £12 quid maybe just the low games i play,

but just me tuppence worth so thanks video slots enjoying the new style,

=Glad you are liking the changes. For me and others, I am not so sure they are good. I have gone from placing in at least one battle a day to not placing at all in 16 or 17 battles. The only change I like so far is the switch out of the FS Tuesday to that buy in battle which in my opinion is a good deal.

 

[09237653]

My proposal: scrap clash of spins and restore the RTPs!!

 

[sueyh]

I don't like COS either..

@Team.Videoslots

another suggestion.

I believe you spend $50k-$70k per week for COS, why don't you spend that money for something else?
Such as $8k freroll everyday
Or SNG for whole day on Saturday etc...since you put the wagering requirement really high, to make people stay I think you should put more on free battles instead of keeping COS.

Much higher wagering requirements but same old free battles...I can see many people will switch the casino.

That’s some game play you’ve got for your £12 deposits.
I’ve got friends who I know are between €300 and €400 in deposits for March and are only half way to having met the 2500xp.

I agree it is the most forgettable promo VS currently offers it is pointless might as well have the free spins on a weekly battle maybe on a Sunday or extra wheel spins.

 

[spoo42]

ive never played to qualify for the freerolls but somehow nearly always do my average deposit is £12 quid maybe just the low games i play,

a month to qualify is better - but the xp increase is so big though now. If you nearly always made it with the old requirements, id imagine youll
find it much harder now.

last 30 days for me personally, over £220 in, still only just over 2000xp (and done better than some) - and im a lower roller.

The Tuesday battle is great, the wheels - im not totally sure, the clash is forgettable for me personally and the huge increase in xp needed to qualify
for anything - well, isn't good. Loved the sng battle weekend/happy hours, but with such high requirements now.. Im unlikely to often meet them.

So it seems to me that some agree with me that Clash of the spins ends in whimpering failure most of the times. I think the suggestions made in the quoted response are valid and welcome. At least in my humble opinion.

Your doing better than me. I am 450 in and still short a grand on qualifying. Don't fancy going broke trying to attain the unattainable at this time.

 

[SlotGrinder]

Is that 2500 XP ? Would help if there was anywhere to actually see how many XP you have wagered

 

[spoo42]

Yeah I had some level of luck a week or so ago, which gave me a fair amount of play time (and boosted my xp a fair amount).. and ive probably done better than some for slightly less in - but still not made it, and
im not going to force the issue either. In the last 1.5 years ive only ever twice i think gone over 2.5k of wagering through a month (ok, ignoring the new levels of wager per game rtp etc)..but basically i rarely get near to that.

Yes it would its now two months since they said they were bringing in an xp table.
