I'm having fun, but I wish there was an option to stop the slots on your own instead of leaving it up to chance : /

I figured out how it all works.
The flash is programmed with a combination of results, like a real slot machine.
Highest chances don't matter with gold.
The better the chances for the game there is, the more its going to happen.
Simply put
Bad things are gonna happen more - You're one lucky S.O.B if you get 3 halos, and someone upstairs touched the reel for you if you so happened to bet 3 times that round.
The entire slots run off of a randomizer. There have beeen a few overloads today, and I expect a v1.2 to come out sooner than the v1.5 fishing game came.
I noticed several lags, and a few lags in the randomizer. All 3 slots spin same speed, same picture. While waiting for the randomized result to be transered to your page, it may slow down, or have a lag. That means someone else (sarcastically speaking there - i really mean that there are at least 400 other people getting the same randomized answer you are) is getting the same thing as you.
I also noticed that in a few cases, I lost my "connection" to the server while being in the middle of a spin. The usual answer is "Devil, box, wing" in that order. I also noticed that if you get more than 6 rounds without any wins, you should cash out, and restart a new game after closing your window and reconnecting to the server.
I'm overall glad that the so called 'karma' isn't in this game, or at least not as strict as the fishing game. After an hour of fishing, I noticed an increase in junk, and decrease in larger fish. When this happens, you should give the game a break for a regular world day - not a Gaian day.
And that's my review, I suppose, of the Gaian Casino Slots. -so far. ninja

On lost connection I have found the usual order to be "Devil Wing Box", just a little different from you. But once it was not that and was something different.
There are 36 pages of tickets for sale in the Marketplace. People are asking too much for them, but I guess it is the first day. They have come to the conclusion that 1 ticket = 10 gold, I don't know where they came up with that. But it's too expensive as you can see with 36 pages of tickets for sale. I am surprised if anyone were to buy them.

The slots overall I found okay. Nothign all that special though. I wish the Admins produced (one day) some card games for the casino- like Black Jack, and Poker- things that you have to be a little bit skilled at (but not much).

The Casino is a great Game after considerable thought in how to cover the casino. I went out and bought tickets to see what fair pricing was on them I Averaged anywhere from 5.5g each to 7.5g each some i bought cheaper and some I bought at higher prices. Then it occurred after talking to Wishbringer that the best way for Lucky DEVIL to cover the Gambino Casino was to list the Ticket pricing range in the Price Guide and for her to list the Prize items in the Commons Guide thats under construction. Since the prize items are available in unlimited quanity just as store items, the tickets are gonna be the way to value the items not by the simple sale of them. Lets say you bought a crown they cost 330,000 tickets well from my first hand buying of tickets for quite awhile today, the pricing was as I said anywhere from 5.5 to 7.5 gold each you would take that and multiple the ticket price time the tickets used to buy and get your purchase pricing
Example pricing 330,000 tickets at 5.5 gold = 1,815,000 gold for low end and then at 7.5 gold = 2,475,000gold high end value.
The gambino Casino section is located on page 1 of the price guide for reference to pricing.

3nodding I think the first few days the tickets will be worth more in the marketplace, and then after awhile come down. In fact, I believe in the marketplace I saw a red crown going for a D-Tail today. I guess it all depends on the PN too because it was the fourth one made.
As for the game itself, I don't find it overly enjoyable. The items are nice and all, but the fishing is more fun, and in the long run you most likley would make more gold at it when I look at the odds. The slots are all about chance, and generally people are more likley to win less then they spend, or so I have found. Fish Bait at the least costs 25g in which you can catch even the smallest fish in durem for 11g each.

frankly, the results im seeing is that the vast majority of people must be losing far more than me, and I project I will also eventually begin getting less, and not more per gold. I was getting about a 2 gold to 1 ticket ratio (101:51) after toying with it about 70 times. The strategies I have used varied, including 3, 2, and 1, as well as 1-2-3-1-2-3, and several 1-1-1. Oddly, that's the only measure of free will the game allows. It would be nice if you could have a "power" level on pulling your wheel, like the kitten cannonball online flash game (for those who have seen it, its outside gaia of course).
About the best results ive gotten were with 2/2; which yields your gold back on a 1:1 scale. Very rarely, a few people have actually gotten more than 1:1 gold back. Not being one of those people, and seeing that the vast majority get even less, I can only conclude that the entire game is somewhat rigged like the Rares of the fishing game.
I.e., sufficient people will win big for others to keep trying, but whoever you are, when you are reading this, it wont be YOU, and it wont be me.
I didn't see a 10:1 ticket ratio either, I saw more like an 8, anything smaller than 8:1 (like 5:1) is generally a good deal, anything more, is not.
Anyway you look at it, 330,000 tickets is still going to be well over a million gold, thus most of the items in the Casino are going to compete directly with 2003 items, the absolute cheapest competing with High end 04 items.
I'll try a thousand tokens today, and see if its worth the time. I'm guessing it wont be.
