I don''t want to sound ungrateful - you've been great to me, so please don't think that - but I do have a question about the slot game.
I see that some people posted at various points about not winning, but I didn't see anyone who posted about playing frequently and never having a single win.
I understand it takes patience, and I'm cool w/that, and I also understand that wins may be rare. But I've played the slots a LOT (have been very ill past couple wks, so not so much as at first, but still have played the game a lot), and I played several times every day when it first came online and on many days since then. But I've never won at all.
Am I doing something wrong? My cache is automatically cleared every time I close my browser, and if I'm online for a long time without closing it, I empty it manually on a regular basis, so that shouldn't be a problem, and my settings are set to show new page every time one is available, so that shouldn't be a problem either. But I am still running the Windows98SE operating system, and I've heard that some newer software is being written in some kind of way that has a negative effect (doesn't operate properly) when run on computers running Windows98SE, because Microsoft wants to force people to buy a newer OS (I can't afford one, lol).
Do you have any ideas or suggestions for me?
Thanks.

I agree that game is random. And i use win98se too. I clean or my pc (based settings) clean my browser cache/cookies/temp-files regularly. etc. etc... and i have quite high security settings in my pc.
But i have to say, that i won again 300 cc points now, but i can promise that there is so much "sorry"-messages... but it is like gambling.

LOL to Soda! Thanks for the sweet thought, lolol.
But I FINALLY WON SOMETHING JUST A FEW MINUTES AGO = WHOOHOOO!
150cc points. I didn't see a playtech offer (won first 2), but figure that's just getting started, so no biggie. I was just so happy to finally actually win something on there, lmao! lmao!
And thanks for your response, Geno. I really was mainly worried that my computer was still somehow configured in a way that made wins impossible, after reading all the posts of people who won a lot or at least some - now that I know it isn't my computer and I just had my typical bad luck, I'm ok with the results, lmao!!!!!!!!!
Take care! And if you're looking for a good charity to donate some of those major millions winnings to, I'm a very needy charity myself, and I'd be a grateful recipient of any donations, hehehehehe!

Oh, now i get it Sodax.... you were feeling Guilty for winning everyone else's cc-points on the slot machine, roflmao!!!!! That's why you made that nice remark about donating cc-points, hehehehe. But don't worry - we might pick on you if you win a lot, but except for the occasional nutcase (or those unfortunate few who are always angry at the world and looking for someone who feels good to blame all their problems on, in the hopes they can make others as unhappy as they are - and i'll kick your butt if you let anyone ruin your enjoyment of life's rare pleasures! lol), all we'll do is give you a hard time, pick on you, and generally let you know we "luv ya" by giving you a good-hearted, but non-abusive, hard time. hehehe.
I, for one, am happy you have had good luck, and hope you continue to win -- cc-points, and hopefully lots of direct MOOLAH!
But don't ever apologize for WINNIING! Life gives us plenty of bad experiences, and seldom gives people nearly as many things to feel good about as to worry about or feel bad about or fret about, etc, even though everyone deserves to feel good as least as often as they feel bad, and to have at least as many GOOD things happen to them as bad! So when you win, or have something good happen, ENJOY IT and FEEL GOOD. Don't let anyone make you feel guilty for experiencing something good and/or feeling good (or i'll kick your butt, lol). And always let yourself fully enjoy the good things in life!!!
Of course, I myself have returned to all "no wins" on that darned slots game since that 1 win I finally got, rofl. But I enjoyed it a lot, lolol. Apparently that win wasn't the beginning of a winning streak. ROFLMAO! But I keep playing, and I figure since I won once, eventually that darn slot game will give me another win, and I'll enjoy that one too! ROFLMAO!!!!!
Til Then, EVERYBODY HAVE FUN!!!!!
