I'm amazed that that tirade only cost him three days. How many lies and insults can you fit into one post?

Upon review, Dieter did upgrade the term of DarkOz's suspension to 7 days.

I appreciate that. I have much more to say, but I will wait until it isn't a one-sided conversation.

I humbly suggest not haranguing conversational adversaries to the point of outburst.
May the cards fall in your favor.

This topic was pretty hot, so I felt an article was justified:

I also give suggestions as to how casinos could avoid dealing in coins while not taking anything away from players. Credit given to RXWine as one of the proposals I made was his idea.

If I average 49 cents per <$1 voucher, after 20 tickets that might add up to near $10.

If I won 100+ >$300 vouchers from a Bubble Craps winning session, will the kiosk allow me to cash all of those in with no problem, or will the kiosk bring up an onscreen request to take my vouchers to the cage? I haven't noticed that kiosks ask for Player's cards to cash a voucher. Or will surveillance kick me out of the casino for not going to the cage in the first place?

try it in several visits, if in doubt, it’s better to implement them little by little in my opinion

Somebody on my last Live Stream alleged that the bet to round up to a dollar had a high house edge. Has anyone else heard this accusation? Any evidence behind it?

Does "the bet to round up to a dollar" mean the "Wager Saver" (or similar) bet on a slot machine, or something else?

I saw a game company just lost a half billion dollar lawsuit because the players could easily make a mistake if they pushed one button close to another by mistake.

I wonder if such a decision might also be reasonable here. Even though the casino could say, they provide information that customers know how to get a few cents back, the casino is willfully calculating many people won't bother to walk out of their way or wait in line for so little. They are intentionally counting on that to add to their bottom line.

This above game company was a gamer company, not gambling. (Epic Games)

I remember a long time ago seeing a story about someone entering every free sweepstakes contest he could manage around the country, He entered so many, he regularly won a prize of some sort. I believe every sweepstakes for a product had to have a way for non-buyers to enter. Often like send a 3x5 card in an envelope with the entry instructions on it. EXCEPT, some companies engaged in practices that made it nearly impossible to win because, just one mistake would disqualify the entry, because the entry requirements were very specific. That kind of practice was made illegal I believe.
