    Sorry Barry2345, this game is only open to players who were Coin Talk Members when the contest began (5-4-2010 or before, see rules in first post of the thread).

    We had to have this rule to prevent players from registering new identities to get extra guesses.

    After this contest is over, perhaps I can host another contest for only new members.

    I suppose that there are at least 16 symbols in each reel; furthermore, all reels have a same total of symbols. However, not all reels have the same quantity of each symbol. According to some calculations, I'm inclined to believe that "orange - bar - orange" appears twice in the first reel; therefore, the first reel can only be closed with 20 symbols. To my judgment, if there are 20 symbols in each reel, the first reel could be composed in the following order:
    orange
    plum
    orange
    bell
    orange
    plum
    orange
    bar
    orange
    cherry
    orange
    double bar
    orange
    plum
    orange
    bar
    orange
    plum
    orange
    triple bar

    I'm somewhat sure that "plum - double bar" and "cherry - double bar" are present once in the third reel. As consequence, my anterior conclusion would place more weight in a 20-symbol composition. I had to guess on part of the third reel; nonetheless, permit me to exhibit the following order:
    plum
    cherry
    plum
    triple bar
    plum
    cherry
    plum
    orange
    cherry
    double bar
    plum
    bell
    cherry
    bar
    plum
    cherry
    plum
    cherry
    plum
    double bar

    Hello Slot Players!


    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    You will recall that in Post #1 (and the 'Official Rules'), I explained that the Slot Machine Contest is not a gambling game, it is a game of prediction. And to a certain extent it is also a game of skill, in that it is possible to give yourself a slight advantage if you learn the symbol patterns on the machine. Although every symbol is present on every reel, indeed some symbols are on some reels more often than others. In setting up the rules for this contest, I had to take all of this (and more) into account in setting up the rules and prizes. The Slot Machine Contest is a game of skill, and I invite our players to discuss strategies or use your skills to competitive advantage.

    A few statistics so far...

    Number of Contest Spins: 8
    Number of total guesses posted to this thread: 328
    Number of possible different guesses: 2401
    Number of times that a player has guessed the most likely combination of symbols to appear: 1

    ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Now, on to today's results:

    [​IMG]

    For those of you who can not view images, the results are: ORANGE ORANGE PLUM ORANGE


    (Why is it that the Plums on a slot machine are blue, not purple like a plum, anyway?)

    To view the reels spinning and stopping, click on this link and search for the video titled 'Spin 5-12':

    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    If you did not guess ORANGE on the first (left) reel, you did not earn any extra guesses
    , no matter what came up on the other three reels.

    ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    No players guessed two or more reels correct (in the proper order) today.

    The following players guessed ORANGE on the first reel to earn one extra guess for the next spin:

    Wiggam007
    2schnauzers2luv
    Camlov2
    TexasTwister
    K2coins
    McBlzr
    Zachkeaton
    Gipper1985
    Erazz

    The following player guessed ORANGE on the first reel
    on two guesses to earn two extra guesses: LFCfan

    The following player guessed ORANGE on the first reel
    on three guesses to earn three extra spins: snapsalot

    As always, the Official Rules apply if I am mistaken above. Please double check your previous guesses before posting for our next spin.

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


    New players are welcome to play
    , as long as you were a Coin Talk Member on or before the start of this contest (5-4-2012).

    Simply post your first guess any time.

    As a reminder to everyone, edited posts are void for all spins.

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    You may begin posting your guesses for the next spin now. Good Luck!
