Official Videoslots presents Battle of Slots!

[LOOKAWAY]

Yep, that is the best one.... i have yet to fail to get some FS from it, mostly 5FS, sometimes 10, 15 or 20. Had 5 on Eggomatic and in those a 10FS and a WILD egg went past without hitting...geez, so disappointing

I hate when they do either Wish Master or Eggomatic on the 4:15 am tourneys as hitting feature especially on Eggomatic from your won fs is all most impossible. And Wish Master tourneys when you run out off coins and have collected all the decent scrolls.

It is good seeing forum members win thou.

Definitely yes, not a fan of Wish Master and Eggomatic you have to watch first a gazillion good eggs going by before it hits one

..... tomorrow morning is eermm, eermm.... Aloha .... that will be a blast

Had twice 10FS on it from the battles and never paid a single cent.

 

[LOOKAWAY]

Thanks for the great news Harry, Aloha that should be a blast.

Finished GNR in 23rd place 14 higher than you might squeeze 5 fs out off it for the first time.

I think were going to get the crap ones in the morning for the foreseeable future like 10 line slots and the 2 mentioned above.

yep, you should be just about OK for 5FS as GnR is a low variance slot.

I do miss the 250FS battle on Gonzo they had at 4.15am (10:15am my local time) in the first few months after the BoS launch. Had a few times 15-20$ just from 5 or 10FS but never ever anything good from The WM and Eggomatic.

 

[LOOKAWAY]

I just noticed that the GNR tournament is now closed at 18:39 pm with 416 players registered when the max is 500 and the normal cut off time would be 19:00 pm

It shows 'closed' at your end because you played the battle already but it will be open until 07:15pm or when it is full.

Ah okay nice to have a blonde moment when your losing all your hair.

I think they must have issued more freeroll tickets then usual. Terrible lag problems. I am seriously getting pissed off. So many people participating that have not deposited. Lots of time and money to qualify .... very unhappy ....

Perhaps Dan you can come up with a solution such as deferring our freerolls until these tickets are expired ???? Not much fun yesterday or today.

I agree - I am going to give up on these "free rolls". There is no point wasting my time competing with another 300/400 people (most of which have been given a freebie 3 day pass).

These free rolls are supposed to be a benefit to the depositing player. They no longer are as long as freebie tickets are handed out.

But, Barbara, we are appearing to be lone voices.

I've deposited about £20-30 there now in about 2 months as I got pissed off the second time they did it after everyone complained the first time and offered suggestions, which were all ignored. So voted with my pocket and spend my money elsewhere, no skin off my nose, but they lost me as a customer. Won't make a difference to them but if everyone did it it might make a difference.

Thankfully my one deposit went so quickly that I abandoned depositing more.I just got the feeling that any more would sink fast too.Qualifying for the free rolls would have pissed me off.
I wonder what part of the World videoslots targeted this time with their free entry passes? Will another area be targeted next weekend?

There are a number of reasons why I keep playing at Videoslots - one of them being that they don't charge a fee when making deposits via debit card. If (or perhaps when) other reputable and player friendly casinos do the same, I may reconsider my position.

Nor do any I play at, usually use MrGreen, Boylesports, Skyvegas, Bet365, and AllBritish sometimes

I am aware of these. Because I don't play with bonuses I am looking for something back for my loyalty such as things that Videoslots has (cashback, race money). I am not aware any of the ones you listed have this. The closest is Rizk but they charge a debit card fee

 

[Adriana B]

I do love Videoslots. So, I am bitching but will always be a returning customer. Just imagine how perfect they would be if they would keep these battles exclusive to their loyal customers. Ahhh ... just like it used to be a month or two ago.

I agree, and thats the reason I don't use Rizk, especially as they overcharge you, I used to pay 50p for taking debit card payments, that was a few years ago and if we were doing 100+ transactions a week it would have dropped to about 33p. If they are paying 75p they are being overcharged, if not then we are. Plus the rewards are rubbish.

VS rewards are ok, but not enough to keep me playing there as there is plenty of things wrong with them too
Customer service is awful, Dans good, but live chat seem like they are not even aware of what a casino is half the time!

I see this in a different way. There are weeks when I deposit 50-70 EUR, and still don't qualify because of not been able to wager enough. It's nice to get a 3 day ticket from time to time and even get some free spins occasionally.

I take these tickets as an additional reward, a welcomed bonus. And it really doesn't matter that much if there are 120 or 400 players. When the tournament slot is cold, it is cold. It's a tournament after all, not a guaranteed distribution of copious amount of free spins to all players.

Since I got a ticket yesterday, I have yet to see any tournament full.

Of course it matters. The fewer players the better a chance of getting some free spins.

I have no problem Videoslots giving out freebies to those that have not qualified through the usual means, as long as it doesn't affect me. As soon as it does, I do have a problem with it. And as a player that deposits between £300 and £1,000 a week I am a little annoyed they don't appear to be listening and rather let the marketing department have their way

If there are 74 prizes, if 120 enter you have better than a 1 in 2 chance of winning something. If 400 enter its worse than 1 in 5, how doesn't that matter?
Would you be saying the same if you deposited 300 euro a week and qualified properly?

 

[ternur]

I think you missed my point. I don't see these tournaments as an entitlement for free spins, but rather as a nice bonus. I've won a couple of tournaments with 350+ players and been left out of prizes with a 150 pool. Sure it's mathematically easier to reach a prize position with less opponents, but my point was these are slot tournaments. Slots are hot or they are cold. Simple as that.

Would you be saying the same if you deposited 300 euro a week and qualified properly?

Probably not.

Maybe VS could separate tournaments, so ticket holders would play in separate ones, and properly qualified would have other ones. Perhaps this would cater to a broader audience?

That was suggested when they first gave battle tickets out (and numerous times since) and ignored

 

[bluebirdy]

If i was depositing £1,000 a week it would'nt matter to me.
so i might miss out on 5 free spins due to more people playing so what.

come on for real moaning when you get

weekly cashback,
free entry to weekly casino race to win up to 475 euros ( or might be £)
achievements where you can win free spins or tokens to enter cash battles.
emails giving freebies


sorry but what other casino even comes close to that ?.

after all that still moaning about not being able to to get chance to win more free stuff. sorry but i got to laugh

 

[Harry_BKK]

Repeating myself, sorry.

We players are indeed a strange breed.... losing 100's or 1000's every week and we take it on the chin, only to repeat the same next week...but deprive us of some FS at a measly 0.10$/GBP/EUR/CAD, well it's not even that, it is actually only a chance to win a few FS ....and we go berserk. Toys well and truly out of the pram!

:gunmen:

 

[interlog]

Not at all Harry and Bluebirdy.

When you make something a benefit and then either take it away or degrade it (like they have) then you piss off your customers.

Look at the 06:15 battle (that I wanted to enter despite saying last night I wouldn't bother) - it was full as it reached 200 places so I couldn't even participate.

The point is that I (and others) are loyal customers and it appears that non depositors are more important. Well that is how it feels when it comes to these free roll battles.

The 100FS battle is limited to 200 players? Didn't see that.

I agree with you partially. Launching something for loyal players and then 'devalueing' it by allowing "unloyal' players to take part is not the fairest thing to do, putting in question why one should be loyal in the first place.

I am OK though if they sent free tickets to players who are loyal but where the budget is not sufficient to keep up with the qualification demands for the free battles.

However, my criteria for being loyal takes more things into account, e.g. payment speed, game selection, VIP program, etc., hence the free battles are only a small part of that.

 

[interlog]

Of course the things like cashback, the weekly races and the odd reward here and there as well as the lightning fast withdrawal speed are important and more valuable then the chance of getting free spins - I totally agree with that.

As I said before, I have no problem Videoslots giving out freebies to others, but please don't let it be at the expense of loyal depositing players.

Are there different free roll battles for different countries?

I was mid stream when a viewer challenged me to beat their score on the 12:15PM Magic Portals free roll. However, this was not available for me to play (i.e. it wasn't listed)? I can play the 13:15 Energoonz one?

Hi Interlog,

We got information from NetEnt that Magic Portal should be removed from the UK due to compliance reasons. So we removed both desktop and mobile until we received confirmation if it affected both versions or not. I have just got a confirmation that Magic Portal should only be removed as a mobile version and UK players still can play the desktop version.

So that is the reason behind why you couldn't see the Battle, but you will be able to see it next time.

Br,

Daniel

I just played Magic Portals, and late registration is still available. Energoonz @ 13:15 GMT.


Edit: Seems that VS is very fast in every aspect, even in forum world.

Yeah I can see it now but alas registration for that battle has now finished so can't participate (the story of my recent life!!!!)

Just had a look at last weeks weekly race 3882 people won a prize. how many of them can enter the free battles but choose not to?. how many off them are loyal customers?.

To me if i miss a battle its no big deal, the chance of winning is high anyway if slot not in good mood for you. and as some else as said already your not guaranteed a win if you do get in.

If more loyal customers come from free entry aint that a good thing knowing they might add more battles, more freespins and more chances to win. like they did with the prize pool on the weekly race.

I guess i will win the 30 free on Jack Hammer2 ,still 5 minutes till the end and still number 1

WTG Helen.... hope they pay something nice. JH2 can do that on 30FS.

I ended in 295th place

Won yesterday 75FS in the Book of Dead battle and got $3.30 from them....pretty disappointed ; today 20FS on Magic Portals paid $11.30, a little better.

I was really surprised from Jack Hammer2 me winning on that game i never had any luck on it and from the 30 free won 5.44

Every time i win some bigger amount of free spins no matter if they are 75 or 100 they are all empty or is it just me

Nope, same here

50FS on Eggomatic --> 5.43
20FS on JH2 --> 3.41
75FS on BoD --> 3.30
25FS on Magic Portals --> 2.56

List could go on

But not worried really, they are freebies and on top the winnings are wager free.

 

[Adriana B]

By no means am I a prude -- in fact, quite the opposite. But, some of the nicknames that people have chosen for their battles really makes me cringe and I find it really offensive. I am surprised Videoslots let these slip through. One nickname that comes to mind is FucQueen. C'mon-- have a little class!

 

[RichyJ75]

Well done Harry, you seem to have this one in the bag! Cracking win and miles ahead of everyone else .....

 

[Adriana B]

Yeah Harry. Saw that too. Let us know how you made out with all those free spins.

 

[Harry_BKK]

Thanks Richy and Barbara.

Full screen of ladies in free spins bar 1 spot, the top position on Reel 4, paid over 320x bet + another 2 bonus rounds. Never seen Dracula paying so much, well not for me.

EDIT: Will update later with the monstrous winnings from those FS

 

[Harry_BKK]

a ginormous win of 7.55 from the 75FS on Dracula

DOA will have that in now time

 

[RichyJ75]

shaky67 - you posted up about Wizard of Gems last night in the Guns N' Roses round a few minutes back - what's up? Anything I can help with?

 

[citizenx]

Been getting virtually nothing anywhere for weeks so have been playing these battles to try and kick start my playing pot.

Won 5 FS on Victorious earlier. Turned into a £6 win.

Switched to DOA and Gonzos. Turned into a £70 withdrawal.

DOA seemed generous so played on...



Cheers VS. Already received and much appreciated

 

[citizenx]

Just to add this little beauty. Don't normally cross post but seeing as i'm over £500 up purely from tournament FS win I think its worth sharing.

 

[interlog]

^^ Nice one ^^

And this all came from a "poxy" 5 free spins (sorry, couldn't resist Harry).

 

[geordiecolin]

Its great to see that they have addressed the issue of free spins not activating if they hit on your last spin in the battles. It happened to me a number of times in the past but today they activated

Lets hope it was worth it than other wise thats a few minutes pissed down the drain, its rare to get free spins on last shot, bloody rare to get then in any case but I have them in my last spin and that problem did not arise for me,

But if did for some others I think the best way around it would of been to add a extra spin I would of thought, instead of 100 spins than have 101 spins

If it happens on some games it could make the difference between coming top of missing the cut for the free spins. I recall some time ago Dan saying that they where looking for a fix and it must have been sorted.

 

[paul7388]

Okay yet another thumbs up to VS.

Got 20 free spins on jimi Hendrix battle. Won £17 0n those spins.

Kept playing it for a while and left the slot with £30. Played CFTBL like ive been playing everywhere for weeks as its so hot for me at moment. Most wins ive had lately all been on this slot including a £200 for 20p stake at a different casino last week.

Anywa balance was over £50 so was thinking maybe just withdraw it. Got another free spins round which paid about £87 for 20p stake so decided id withdraw £100 just there at 9pm and leave the other nearly £40 to play as it was all from 20 free spins.

Anyway withdrew and loaded Creature back up and wondered there why its not showing cashout above slot like normal. Checked mail and reason is ive already received money in neteller.

Cant get quicker than that. thought the 5 minutes or so on other withdrawals last few weeks was fast but this was processed before game reloaded.

Great casino Dan . Seriously cant believe why ive played elsewhere so often over the last few years.

 

[geordiecolin]

Although I have already qualified for the free battles I received a free ticket this morning but " This ticket does not exist". It would have gave me an extra few days play!
