Hi garoblows:

As far as cameras ... the one in my cell phone is "hit and miss". It has a tendency to take a blurry picture (so you have to hold it still for longer than usual). I use a normal Canon camera for a lot of my shots ... and just keep it in my pocket.

Any game with volatility is going to have long cold spells. Those big prizes have to come from somewhere.

I have really been enjoying the slot videos from You Tube's "ACINLVNV". Here is a collection of nice RUBY SLIPPERS hits!!

... and a really nice hit on a $2 bet.

wow they got the 2x mutiplier as well! when i hit it i didnt get the multiplier!

Trip update from Choctaw Casino! Well, I went, I saw, I found it, it sucked! lol Yep, Choctaw in Durant does have TWO Ruby Slippers between a Top Gun and an Original WOZ near the buffet. The sad part was BOTH of them had NO sound. I had a slot tech stop by and check them out as I was REALLY wanting to play and hear it. He said when they installed them, the sound blew out right away as it was turned up to max and now they need WMS to come back out and repair. Who knows when that might happen. Anyway, I still played them at 80 cents and it drained my money like my wife! lol I noticed those characters HARDLY EVER show up on a spin, and if they do and it does re-spin, it never stops on more than 1 other character giving you just 3 total. Oh and Glinda, she needs to get a clue and give more wilds. I never got more than 2 wilds in the hour I played. The only thing that kept me going was the Witch Broom bonus. I picked a Big Prize a few times that was a pretty good amount. All in all, I might give it another try ONLY if the sound works next time because it's boring as heck without it! Thats my 80 cents worth!

Hi jce8419:

In my opinion ... one of the keys to the success of this game is the EPIC nature of the game. A big part of that is the music and sound effects.

It would be cool if machines had a little sensor to detect how loud a machine is. If a casino was really loud with sound from other machines, it could play louder. If the caisno was empty, it could adjust the sound downwards.

I've played a number of machines where the speakers are not working in the chair ... but the sound in the main machine usually works. The speakers build into the cabinet can really pump out big sound.

As far as casino slot techs ... plenty know their stuff -- but there are too many willing to offer their opinion as facts!

Question. I have been fortunate to get the emerald city bonus a few times but am wondering what the wizard character does. Do you have to get three of them or something? Just curious.

Update I got the three wizerds during the emerald city bonus which gave me an additional 10 spins. I also had a 5x pay and won $400 on a 40 cent bet!

if you are reffering to the ruby slippers wizard of oz version, the wizard awards you the free spins and depending on the characters you land him with you add different features, dorothy gives you a total of 10 spins instead of 5 spins, the tin man gives you 3 times the pay, scarecrow makes the group symbol wild and finaly the lion gives you a random wild reel, so obviously the more characters you get the better your bonus round will be.

if you get the 3 of the wizard during the free spin it retriggers spins i had it an it gave me 10 extra spins had 10 to start with so 20 total

what?
