    Default Arcade Credits

    ** UPDATED JACKPOT **

    Hi all,

    Just to let you know i have now integrated Arcade Jackpots

    The cost to play the games are ( currently ) 10 credits.

    The jackpot is set to 250 credits ( this increases each time someone plays the game )

    Payout is as follows:

    5th highest score earns you 1/5th of the jackpot
    4th highest score earns you 1/4th of the jackpot
    and so on...

    The highest score earns you the TOTAL jackpot

    If when playing a game, you do not get in the top 5 high scores, your game fee is Added to the jackpot.

    Have fun

    Please note, once the Jackpot has been won, it resets back to Zero again.

    The payout is for an individual game, and im sorry you dont think its fair.

    Ultimateley, those that like the arcade, will earn Loads of credits, you dont have to be the best to win some.

    just give it a chance Cori - we always used to have to pay to play - and if you take part in forums etc then you get credits - helps Magic to keep the site fun and interesting not just a gamer site.

    Good games Magz - hopefully I'll find time to play some more lol

    Keep up the good work "Team Magic"

    Well you pay to win, so it is not a bad idea in my opinion. They all get credits when they start, so they have some credits to play already.

    Also you can loan credits and the reason behind it is to be more active on the whole forum, which sounds logical to me as some only spend time at the arcade section.

    I do understand that for instance other kids outside the UK might have it harder than kids from the UK because of the language, when it comes to posting, but it is also good to learn the language that way.

    Then we have the forum competitions like the egg hunt, the lottery etc. Everyone can compete in this part too.

    Have fun you all :)

    Exclamation Re: Arcade Credits

    Ok i have another question, wouldnt it be better if the 10 credits were actually taken from our accounts when we submit the game? cause i like playin the games i played daily and i cant beat my own score most of the times and im already first or second so i dont get anythin...

    yet my conn to the site is not good its worse on andreses conn, so sometimes i have to refresh to get the games workin :( they dont load... now for example ive been waitin for like 10 mins for "Apprentice - Dairy Queen" to load i still have a black screen. if i refresh the credits already been taken of me without even playing :S

    Couldnt the 10 credits be taken after ya finish and ya submit instead of when yer loading the game?

    Thanks

    Cori

    Cori hun,

    Sadly i cant help if pepes connections are not as good as others, but the whole point of the credits is about a bit of fun. ( Its not real money lol ) Any time you want you can ask for more, and i will happily top you up :) You can also take a "loan" at zero % interest. There is an option to buy an arcade pass, that way you never ever need to pay to play a game again. With a pass, you also wouldnt get any jackpots, so would be playing purely for the fun of it.

    If that sounds like something you would like, let me know.
