its gambling, and its addictive 
i had a few great runs where i would deposit 200m and win 3-400m worth of ships, and then depost 500m and only win 150m worth of ships. got me addicted atleast , altho i havent played since my last bad run :p
anyhow, i love what viddyi has done and the site is easy to comprehend.
however, i would like to see the "slotmachine" get a graphical makeover. |

Like the old Eve adage: "Don't flyspin what you can't afford to lose". 
I try to always keep all the chances of the different stations fair to the players. It really shouldn't make me happy to lose money when someone wins something big, but knowing that ship spinning made their day is a good feeling.

It's on my to-do list. I have been working on the site, but the improvements have mostly been back-end stuff, like a better interface for handing out prizes, and market probing to allow me to better manage times when ship prices go haywire.
Fun fact: did you know that every time the market shifts significantly I run several tens of thousands of trial spins of each slot machine to make sure it's paying out as it should be? The actual number depends on how patient I'm feeling that day, and whether I want to make my hosting provider want to tear his head out because I lock up the server for a bit.
Thanks for playing! |

Was a huge skeptic at first, but after depositing 70m and coming out with an Ashimmu, Vigilant and Noctis and a bunch of free credit winnings I am a skeptic no more.
Lotta fun and a nice new way to gamble my iskies away.
Kudos to you!

No sense in scamming if I can make ISK by having a legit business. Besides, the turnover of ISK is rather huge. Multiple tens of billions of ISK have passed through my hands, but I've never had any more than 4-5 billion ISK on hand at any one time (which is actually why I can't offer things like Jump Freighters yet; get more people playing!). Taking everyone's ISK and running would make for a very poor scam, since people would stop giving me ISK. A gambling business is just not a very viable scam method.
Glad you're having fun though! |
