For now, mime and apollo have full control over LC and will be handling site decisions going forward.
I’m stepping back from making site changes for now and letting them decide how to move LC forward.

@Jack Of Blades, here is my breakdown of the game with the changes playing for a very short time.
it seems much more balanced but still way too bright in the eyes.
slots are completely random odds(this is not a set number, it's an average) correct me if I'm wrong (not average wrong but completely wrong)
3 Stars
50x
1 in 385 average chances to win.
(playing 5 coins 5 x 50 = 150 win) (playing 25 coins 25 x 50 coins = 1,250 win) (playing 100 coins 50 x 100 = 5,000 win)
(playing 5 coins 386 times costs 1,930) (playing 25 coins 386 times costs 9,650) (playing 100 coins 386 times costs 38,600)
raw average is spend 100 coins to win 25 coins (these are not set numbers, it's an average)
3 Lemons
20x
divide 3 stars above by 2.5
3 Cherries
3x
divide 3 stars above by 16.6666666667 (i used a calculator for that)
I played 1,000 coins 25 coins at a time (40 spins)
I won
2 x 3 cherries = 150 coins
1 x 3 lemons = 500 coins
total win 650 coins
total spent 1000 coins (this is not a set number, it's an average just like playing any game or lottery)
i may have won the jackpot in 40 spins, I may have not won anything in 40 spins, it's an average I continued playing my 650 coins winnings 25 coins at a time (26 spins) I won
2 x 3 cherries = 150 coins
I spent 650 coins I continued playing my 150 coins winnings 25 coins at a time (6 spins)
I won
1 x 3 clovers = 2,500 coins
I spent 150 coins

- Wins from matching 3 symbols (Cherries, Lemons, Stars, etc.).
- Calculation : Sum of (Probability of Symbol × Payout Multiplier).
- Note : The "Cherries" (3x) and "Lemons" (20x) make up the bulk of this because they hit most frequently (1 in 13 and 1 in 71 spins respectively).
- Mystery Wins (~13%) :
- There is a 0.5% chance (1 in 200) on any losing spin to trigger a random win.
- The multiplier is random between 5x and 50x (Average 27.5x).
- This adds a significant chunk (~12.5%) to the RTP, meaning the "base" game can feel tighter because a lot of the value is hidden in these random surprises.
- Progressive Jackpot (~1% + Seed) :
- 1% of every bet goes into the jackpot pool.
- Eventually, a player wins this back.
- The "Seed" (starting value of 10,000 credits) adds a bit more value on top, depending on how often it's hit.
Thanks for your breakdowns of the numbers on the slot machine. Seems like the initial loss is bigger, but the longterm payouts are bigger. I also tried it out with about 100x 1 Credit spins and left with 65 Credits. So the math checks out.

Oh, well. I read the content of the spoiler, but not the spoiler title. I'm sorry.

Please only read if participatig in daily themes threads. Sorry for everyone that won't get a reaction from me in the daily themes thread. My flight or fight response is bigger than my selfcontrol to react - so I skip it due to uncanny valley excuses. You all still do a great job in participating! Thank you all very much! Sorry for being like this.

- Clover Win (100x): Was ~1 in 2,777 spins. Now ~1 in 5,555 spins.
- Seven Win (250x): Was ~1 in 8,333 spins. Now ~1 in 16,666 spins.
- Jackpot (Diamond): Was ~1 in 41,666 spins. Now ~1 in 83,333 spins.
Technical Details:
- Reduced Reel 3 clover weight from 30 to 15.
- Reduced Reel 3 seven weight from 10 to 5.
- Reduced Reel 3 diamond weight from 2 to 1.
- Increased Reel 3 cherry weight to compensate, slightly increasing the frequency of small "money back" wins to keep players engaged without bankrupting the house.
This should prevent players from "grinding" small bets to easily hit a massive 100x+ payout like the one described

Happy New Year all! Currently still in the "I'm never drinking another drop of alcohol as long as I live" phase of things how is everyone else doing?
Also, curious what do these slots changes mean overall? So the odds of the big jackpot have been about halved and the cherry is increased, but is it still a net positive (though a relatively small one/slow grind)? How it was before, making smaller bets I was able to make coins doing it but I'm not trying to gamble away all my coins if the new changes mean it's a lot harder/impossible to win?

I changed how we're doing the daily themes, and I want to get people involved! To help with that, I'll be awarding small amounts of Activity Coins randomly to people who have reacted to posts in the daily theme threads. I'll also be awarding coins to those who are participating by posting their own artwork in those threads!
Ways to Earn Bonus Coins:
Watch and react to posts you like in the daily theme threads.
Create your own artwork - drawn, 2d, 3d, AI-generated (within the rules of the site).
Note: I'll be giving out coins randomly throughout the coming days. When I log in and look in the threads, I'll randomly choose from among those who've reacted and will be awarding those participating. So the more active you are in there, the better!
I'm going to check and see if any new participation is in those threads! I recommend checking them out. If the coin system is back up, I'll be awarding some coins to people!
If you want coins, you should be getting involved!
