Las Vegas has systems in place to catch scam artists who try to cheat the gaming industry, what happened to you? |

I accidentally uploaded the same texture twice, a while back.
So mark me down for a loss of $L 10. Also, I buy sims new from the Company at 1250 USD a pop. They instantly devalue to the price of a used sim, or 800 USD by virtue of being driven off the showroom floor, so to speak. So that's 5 sims x 450 USD so far: 2250 USD, roughly $L 700,000. Why do I do this? Because I prebook sims with my customer's money, and NO WAY am I going to risk a sim deal falling through because someone took my $L and defaulted on a sim transfer. _____________________

While I have suffered no such loss, I feel your pain and am curious as to how this happened. Las Vegas has systems in place to catch scam artists who try to cheat the gaming industry, what happened to you? No cheat or anything like this. I have a lot of big jackpot machine (up to 600k) and a lot of jackpot were won today. The odds to have a lot of jackpot won in the same day is very poor, but it _CAN_ happen, and it happened ![]() And it was different players too. Finally, if the random number generator function is random enough, there is now way to cheat thoses machines. (anyone checked ? Mmm... not enough memory to store millions of random number and try to find a pattern/cycle/bug/...) I feel no pain, i knew that could happen, but it's stressfull ![]() I probably came in second losing 420k in a casino.............. but I also made 610k once so..... a 420k loss if you *run* a casino isn't a big deal. But if you lost 420k in a single day as a casino players : *OUCH* |

It was high rollers night with a few capitalists lol.... but yes, I was a player in that case. But then again, I won quite a bit once too so that balances it out.
