You can set your name to Anonymous if you do not want to use a name in the BoS chat, so the name could be anyone, but we are keeping an eye to make sure there is no similar issues as before.

Hi Daniel,

What's the point to allow anonimity in the chats or in the battles? I thought the reason that one needs to create a nickname during the registration is to hide the real name where needed (chats, battles etc.).

I don't see the privacy concerns which made it necessary to allow these Anonymous nicks.
 
I was just reading all the posts about someone hacking the battles. All I can say is, you know its not me! :laugh: People will do anything if they think they can get away with it. So sad.
 
While I am glad that the exploit has been dealt with, I certainly hope the player has been ousted from VS. If nothing else, cheating to win a few free spins is IMO a sign of an addicted gambler.

Thank you for taking us seriously to investigate the matter.
There was an anonymous in the canadian battles that was always winning too. I wonder if it's the same one.
 
If it is the same one, they wouldn't be able to play DOA as an alternate slot since Canadians can't play Netent to begin with. I don't think we should be worrying about users who don't want their battle names shown. They have their reasons just like how we have ours. :)
 
forgot i had this, if someone is interested in that guy that cheated on babushkas, got his nickname

Not quite understanding what advantage he was hoping to achieve subsituting DOA,
yes he appeared to have got a wildline,but that was a chance in thousands.
Also unless he managed play at a higher stake he would be playing at 9p instead of 10p
Am I missing something ?

You are correct, but just as I am assuming, don't assume that Canadians don't use VPN either.

You are - he's an idiot :D

He's actually from Poland and a member of a gambling forum I frequent, I had a conversation with him (and some other users) about it as he was boasting about it and other things, to be honest after the conversation I came to the conclusion he was a scammer and I wasn't even sure he really could change the game in the battle as he was also trying to sell to the members a method to trigger a feature on every spin on Netent slots I think, or something like that, which is as idiotic as it gets of course, one of those "with this one trick you can get rich!" internet things. Though if instead of just sucking the slots dry with his "method" and living the dream in the Carribean or something he wanted to enlighten the others I suppose we should call it an act of good will and him a messiah :eek2:

In any case it's good to see him caught, I hate these kind of people with a passion.
 
I didn't assume anything, Bebo67. You mentioned that this person was possibly the same one that won the Babushkas battle. If this was the case... Not only would this person be unable to join our Canadian battles unless he had an IP from Canada, he wouldn't be able to play Netent from Canada if this person in fact was from Canada. Using VPN you can get around this, but is it really worth the risk when VS has your account information and doesn't allow Canadians to use VPN? Not a good idea.

I am glad this person did get caught and I do wonder how long this exploit has been around.

I was trying to make sense of everything, as I had come in late. So he isnt named " anonymous" and was able to take a game and change it to another game? And then win on it? Babushca, is a retarded game. He could of least done it on a better game. Lol. Takes all kinds.
 
We have released a fix last night that addressed this issue and I am happy to say it has been sorted. Our investigation regarding this will continue.
Thanks a lot to everyone that posted here and reached out with this information.

Great to hear you took swift action against the cheater. :thumbsup:

I'm just wondering if videoslots will be providing some sort of statement once your investigation is completed. If it is true that a player was caught exploiting these tournaments, then that is a serious matter and there will be many questions to be answered.

This community done a great job in catching one person cheating, but how many more people knew about this exploit and were taking advantage of it? Someone a little more savvy may have used the same exploit to take advantage of the €100 buyin tournaments in which case there could be many players who lost out on legitimate winnings.

The fact is videoslots failed to identify the cheating and if not for this community it would still be going on. I think therefore you need to say a bit more than "It's been sorted". I would even go as far as to publish a statement in your newsletter with a full report of your investigation and what action you've taken.

You now have players in the tournament chats accusing others of cheating and this may not go away any time soon if you choose to say nothing more.
 
This evenings Finn and the swirly spin special battle has the wrong starting time, the email and news page say its starting at 19:00, but the battle has been set up to start at 17:00.

Dan..why is there no SNG Freerolls, instead we are getting one day battles? Alway look forward to the SNG Freerolls!

I think it's to do with the fact Videoslots have to choose the slot very carefully as a number of these events have had major issues due to the game breaking for everyone.

Such as hotline one Finn one, starburst one and I think there was even issues with the Net-ENT ones so badly that they had to change to Thunderkick for the rest of the day Falcon Huntress and Flamebusters were substitutes IIRC.

I'm still wishing for SNG Freerolls..:D
 
Last SnG Freeroll on netent nearly killed VS site.
Last SnG Freeroll on PnG Did Kill PnG Server for around 5 Hours.

So im guessing its down to options.

For all the stick they get Thunderkick seems to be the only capable platform but if they started using them for everning SnG they would run out of weekend options
 
3 weekday evenings of wild heist id be happy with :laugh:

(and another 48 hour weekend too. lol)

Be nice to get some netent or playngo back again though if they get things fixed.

Id would like to see a few PnG. i know they would go for the 10p once but theres a few they could have a stab at
 
Book of dead id love to see in the sng freerolls - never seen that in sng freerolls before (personally as ive only been playing these since late last year).

Theres a few playngo's id like to see in the sng freerolls as well as bod... planet fortune, aztec idols, gold king, maybe more. Not house of doom or hugo though, hate both with a passion :laugh:

Book and house of doom both been done IIRC as has planet fortune but they had many issues with Planet Fortune ones :(
 
Book of Dead for the Freeroll Weekends has been done twice last year. Once in March, 2017 and in August 2017. I don't recall any House of Doom SnG freerolls that has happened since the game was released a few months ago.

Wasn’t that something on house of doom in April this year?

Edit: it wasn’t S&G but 100 spinbattles for extra free spins x
