Sooo why the sudden decreased payout of Vegas Nights

[flora1941]

I would just like to add that there are definitely cheats out there for computer savvy individuals. I looked it up and found a bot for trivia questions and something that would slow down the wonder wheel games. I also found something you could download to give you extra bombs and wands and things on vegas nights and a program that would allow you to freeze columns on big money. I did not try any of them because I do not think it's good sportsmanship to cheat, but I did find them online with very little effort. I also saw a YouTube video of a high score on vegas nights...it was so fast I could not see what the person was doing. They were making matches and before it completed and the pieces had fallen in to place they had already made another match and used a boost. Now I am not saying they cheated..it is possible that they have practiced a lot, are very intelligent, have super human reflexes and a very fast computer, but I believe if they are savvy enough to post that video it is possible that they could slow down the game to play it and then speed it up for the video...just sayin'

There are a few games on here that people have figured out a way, how can a person have the same score or within a few points of their last day after day and always first on daily, weekly and monthly. These scores are absolutely impossible to make. Especially with some of the boards that come up. And they achieve these scores by 1 minute past midnight.

If you can pause the game you can start a game at 12 pm and keep it paused til midnight. That's how people get the "right at midnight" scores.

Why would you want to do that? What would be the benefit?

[squishmar]

The benefit is that many games have scoring where many people get the same score... whoever gets the earliest time for the same score is ranked higher on the leaderboard. So, if we both scored, say, 1,725 on the Spring SwapIt game, and I played at 12:15 a.m. and you played at 3:30 p.m., I would be ranked above you.

What I have noticed, you can be in the middle of the game that you have started 3 or 4 mins before midnight but it get count after midnight...I don't believe any paising is happening for that example...

Thanks for the info squishmar, thought it might be something like that. I have seen where it says tie next to the score, like on the weekly win it. Do those people get the same prize?

[squishmar]

Ya know, I never play the Weekly Win It so I can't answer that... I've never really even investigated the Weekly Win It games... mostly because they are usually always games that I'm just no good at.

I can't find WHERE to do the gsn.com/snap word of the day. I see it EVERY DAY and can't find where to log it. TODAY IT IS VANILLA!!!!!!!!! I have google chrome, click on the gsn.com/snap and it brings me to a goofy screen with NO SIGN ON TO SNAP OR WORD OF THE DAY. FRUSTRATING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[squishmar]

You can just go to this forum (Under the "Oodles Discussion" part) and it's the first thread there... a thread that's called "Today's Secret Word" and it has it there every day just after it's announced on GSN. When you go to the thread, click in the upper right hand corner to the "last" post and that will take you to the current day.

I just realized that you may be asking where to get credit for the Secret Word. If you're logged in to GSN, go to "My GSN" and then go to "To-Doodles." There, there is a box that says "Oodles Bonus Trivia"... the Secret Word comes up after 3:00 p.m. (Eastern time) and is available until midnight. There are also five other Bonus questions throughout the day that are worth 50 oodles each.
