No

You have 30 days to use the ticket you win for the next level.

I take it if you join level 2/3/4/5 and then unregister cos its taking too long then you get the battle token back?
It's a shame @Team.Videoslots couldn't hang around to answer the questions after posting the promotion!

Mr Wild, you are not here as an official member of TeamVideoslots, or as a rep.

While I appreciate your answers, people must realize they are not official responses or rules.

A suggestion if I might... If I were to pay e605 for a tournament, I would want more than 50 spins @ .10. The tournament will not pay any differently if I have 200 $3 spins instead, and I would get a little more play, and the possiblity of seeing large tourney dollars come up!

 

[bebo67]

As we all know how crappy I do in the battles. Tuesdays battles have been great for me! last week $91 dollars and change, this week $31 dollars and change! Thanks videoslots!

Yes that was something I was going to suggest. Paying to enter and getting a couple of minutes playtime for 25 spins is a bit naff. In the second one I entered, everyone had played within 5 mins apart from one who didn't bother playing at all.

 

[Mr Wild]

Fag packet maths warning:

You need 5 battles on each level to fill the next one, so level 1 is 5 battles required, level 2 is 25 (level 1) battles, level 3 is 125 battles, level 4 is 625 so to fill a level 5 battle with 10 players you need 3125 level 1 battles played?

edit: Okay not quite so many because more than 2players advance in rounds 3 and 4.
its 5*5*2.5*2 = 125 level 1 battles needed to fill one level 5 battle.

110 Round 1 Battle gives 1 Round 5 Battle.

 

[anddi32]

Right now my battle screen looks like this. Yes okay only problem is nobody knows what those sit n go's and one freeroll means so would be pretty nice if you could explain even something for the players. Thanks!

A quick guide (as I understand it) for the Jackpot SnG:

Money prizes at the 5th round, 605 buy, 3/10 chance to win, 90% TRTP.
All start after they get 10 players.
Freerolls with spins will be replaced with freerolls with tickets to 1st round (the 8:15 and the 16:15 already have).
1/40 chance to get to 1st round for free and 1/200 to get to the 2nd round for free. 1/10000 to win 550 or more for free.

Okay so they did it. They will run down whole freeroll-system. Chances, changes, changes, changes and more changes. Almost all those changes are negative changes for the players. CM ranking is 9.8 so it means almost perfect? Chmoon.

There is 2000 players in regular freerolls and 90 tickets for the round 1 (what costs 5.50e) so under 5% change to win that ticket. This all is pure b*llsh*t and VS has gone too far with all those changes

Since when did CM rating include promotions?

 

[nikantw]

There are 4/10 chance to win on 5th level.

That one (3/10) is correct because the 4th win is lower than the fee (if you buy). But yes I keep editing the post to make it better.

 

[anddi32]

It's not only promotions. There is much more than only promotions if you check last four months

 

[bebo67]

So they are getting rid of the free battles for this? Or the paid SNG? It's really confusing and expensive. And what do yo win at the end?

The only good change has been Tuesday madness

No freerolls are there, 3 of them you can win tickets to the Jackpot Chases and Anddi32 is flipping

You didnt like the addon of the Wheel of Jackpots?

I haven't had a chance to se it yet, except the one freebie, and won 10 spins. Excuse my spelling, I'm missing a letter on my keyboard as of yesterday, and spell check wont fix 3 letter words.

 

[Mr Wild]

What more is it then except the decrease of RTP for the regulated countries which you are not affected by being in Finland?

Can yo really psh for new games in the Canadian Battles, please?

 

[Mr Wild]

The value is quite good depending on which level you are on. The XP wheel have highest value. It have similar value to weekend booster depending on which level you are on.

I'm excited to se it. I'm at level 98 and have seen the wheel for that.

Its a big chance Netent will return to Canada, then you will enjoy those. Plus 3 more providers are being added to Battles so there will be more options for players in Canada. I believe first one this month.

Great. I hope so! Thanks, I'm off to bed now. Goodnight.

i realize much of that is probably mum
but are you hinting like spring, or 2020

 

[Mr Wild]

Then you will hit Gold next time!

 

[Mr Wild]

Regarding Netent, I just know its in progress and high chance to happen, but nothing confirmed.

The new providers in Battles will probably be this and next month.

 

[nikantw]

I am not against any of the new battles. They are an extra option for highrollers and a jackpot for the lowrollers.
What I don't want is any of that replacing the freespin freerolls. The freespin freerolls were already a bit low, but still great.
It is a great way to pass time without spending more than you should. Please stop replacing the freespin freerolls!

and there's always us mid-range players
10fs at 10c isnt an incentive and havent the budget to drop near a grand into a battle

i wish FS aligned with betting/player range - ex if youre a $100/200 depositor and $1 spinner, be nice if FS came in around 50cents if not a quarter

 

[Jasminebed]

I see the Wheel as a replacement for the existing rewards, not a new feature.

I think it is wise to reward higher rollers better to retain them, or get a larger share of their bankroll.

Just wish it was better when I hit level 100, lol.

I managed to place 113th in the Tuesday Tourney. Even last week when I won nothing, I thought it a good replacement for the Tuesday free spins, which I never could figure why I did or did not get, other than when it was on NetEnt. I know at least once on a Tuesday support told me I had been sent the code, when I did not receive an email.

No I'm not flipping. Only sad. Casino never make this kind of chances for the players best. They will save money again. I mean: Again.

 

[sueyh]

I don't complain about changes you made...even I don't mind you replace free battle with a paid one-I have played those paid battle, no luck with them yet, but good fun, so I'm OK with it.
But replacing free battle with battle for round thing....I really don't like it.

I don't mind I have to go through 4-5 rounds to reach the final table, that's absolutely fine. My issue is it's SNG.
It looks like it takes ages to fill up first round, imagine how long it will take to fill up 4th, 5th round.
So if I win a ticket to go to 4th, 5th round, I have to sit in front of the computer for ages until it fills up?
I don't want to do that, I have other things to do such as going shopping apart from staring the computer for a few hours.

If you want to replace free battle for free spins with round ticket battle, I think you should make round battle as a tourney not SNG, so at least after I win a ticket, I can join the battle without waiting for hours wondering when the battle starts.
Or if it has to be SNG you should replace the free battle after this round thing become really popular so players don't need to wait for long.

I'm not going to join the battle to get a ticket that I'm not going to use because I don't have time to sit in front of the computer staring VS website for hours.

 

[Jasminebed]

"I'm not going to join the battle to get a ticket that I'm not going to use because I don't have time to sit in front of the computer staring VS website for hours." Excellent point Sueyh. I will join the freerolls, but is not an enticement to meet wagering requirements in order to play them.

Especially when expected long term RTP is 90%, and you get no cashback, does not count towards rewards, or the Clash of Spins.

I cannot see many players that are willing to drop 605 for 10 minutes of play paying cash for those tournaments. I'd rather take my chances on 60 $10 spins and hope for a bonus round. I'd have a chance at winning MORE than $2750. I don't have the euro key, I know prizes are euros. And even the most miserable run of bad luck is unlikely to leave me with zero. Even no hits at all would earn me a small amount of weekend booster.

Mr Wild, I do hope you are management, and are not an official rep so you do not need to respond directly to players unless you choose to.

Mind you, you might be the bartender for Margarita Fridays, and overhear a whole lot!

Unrelated to the Battles, but if you bring back NetEnt, could you implement the ability to block specific games for players upon request? I know you had to do it for Sweden, so it is not something you need to develop from scratch.

Also, with more and more games and providers allowing Feature Buys, it is easy enough to go chasing, even players that normally do not. We should also be able to unblock it upon request, maybe after a cool off period.

 

[brianmon]

110 Round 1 Battle gives 1 Round 5 Battle.

So, assuming no one wants to buy-in at the higher levels (2-5). Then in order for a round 5 battle to take place, you need to find 1100 players willing to pay €5.5 for the first round? Is that not a little ambitious?

Mind you, VS have, more than, covered themselves, and will be making a nice profit from each of the round 5 battles, of a minimum of €550 every time, and much more if anyone buys-in above level 1.
That's a nice (approx) minimum 9% 'house edge'

 

[Jasminebed]

They also need to give much longer time than 15 minutes for the tournament to run, especially without a specified start time. I see there is already one player who did not play at the $27.50 level. Was probably not on purpose.

I think we should have a pool, for when Round 5 begins, like you do when someone is pregnant.

 

[Steviedoo]

Netent might open Canada again at VS, they are looking into it atm. Its not confirmed but its likely to happen.

I’m sorry...did you say....stop....you’re just teasing us...

Someone with a poker background doing promotions @Team.Videoslots & @Mr Wild ?

I remember playing a lot of poker rounders back in the day. I liked them. Not sure how successful they will be with slots, but interesting move in any case.

 

[Team.Videoslots]

Hello @Jasminebed

We will take your feedback regarding Netent and the Battles on board, and see if these things are possible to implement in the near future.

Br,
Team Videoslots.

A quick guide (as I understand it) for the Jackpot SnG (updated):

Money prizes at the 5th round, 605 buy, 3/10 chance to win, 90% TRTP (if you always buy round 5).
All start after they get 10 players and last 60 min.
Freerolls with spins will be replaced with freerolls with tickets to 1st round (the 8:15 and the 16:15 already have).
1/40 chance to get to 1st round for free and 1/200 to get to the 2nd round for free. 1/10000 to win 550 or more for free.
More than 1/100 chance to get to round 5 from round 1!

If you have 1-2 k balance and enough people are joining I would say give it a go.

 

[Jasminebed]

With regard to self-blocking for individual slots, I think that would be great to roll out to all players from all jurisdictions. The more tools we have to keep our gambling enjoyable, the better. Or if you hate some collector games, or you keep meaning to try some of the new slots, but seem to only play DOA and/or Starburst, whatever.

 

[steveh35]

Oh dear some of the free battles have changed to winning a ticket to rounders game

While add it, they might aswell add options to block yourself from live/table games & feature buys.

I have blocks at Paddy Power & Betfair so I can't use the casino as they are my horse racing sites and I know i will be tempted to use my winnings I think all sportsbook/casinos should have a block on different parts of the site.

Yeah but I often get free games spins that are wager free which I take to sports where I stick the winnings on the horses or football

I was doing opposite waiting for the next race to start oh I just have a quick spin on a game and before you know it it's gone which is why I only use these two sites as they let me block casino my horse racing is pretty profitable so I am glad I did what I did.
