Scratchcards....slots...

and now even Expellibox...gone...

you get a message that something has gone wrong and the team is working on fixing it "soon"

I am wondering if anything at all is "wrong".

If I want to play a gambling game, I should be allowed to. I am not a child. I understand that some parents might object to these, but I don't wish the site to take them down for everyone. Maybe they think us older age people who could use the slots and scratch cards and such would have an unfair advantage, so took it down for everyone.


And how can the have us "win" some neocash without making it look like gambling?
Gee, I hope they really are working on this and not trying to please some goodie goodies out there who don't know the different between pretend gambling and the real thing. I don't see anything wrong with pretending to gamble.

I miss my scratchcards and my slots a lot. :(
But the expellibox is working for me.

I doubt they thought there was some sort of advantage for the older people, or it would've been down long before now. I seem to recall that someone hacked the shockwave slots systems? (Good old Scorchy is still up and running...)

The slots have been down for quite a while because they're updating them; I can only imagine they've added the scratchcards to the same list of updates...hopefully. Expellibox is working for me...

I really miss the scratch cards. I miss the little profit I gained off selling one a day. :(

Expellibox told me "Error!" When I first tried, but tried again and got 250np (which was added to my total) So I guess that part's fixed.

I get the errors at the Expellibox all the time. I just reload it and then it's fine. As for the slots (with the exception of Scorchy Slots), they've been down for months as TNT has been working on making them "hacker-proof" (if that's even possible).

Weird about scratchcards though - maybe they're updating them so they're all like the Space Faerie and Desert Scratchcards?

For users under 13 years of age, gambling games don't even show up, regardless of Parental Permission status (except for scratchcards)

Expellibox is working OK for me, too.

There are still several gambling type games: The wheels, Grarrl Keno, Jub Jub Blackjack, Krawps, Poker, Lottery, etc. Try here

I really miss Brucey & the Scratchcards though. I hope they're back soon.

I hope the scratchcards aren't down for good because I normally sell them in batches and I've got about twenty in my SDB! Including one quite rare one which I'd be sorry not to be able to sell.

I just won a scratchcard off the Snowager, so it can't (well, shouldn't) be a permanent thing -- it's probably the server move.

ETA: Expellibox just worked for me, and the scratchcard kiosk references a "quick revision."

I was always wondering what happened to the slots. I used to play the Brucey B one all the time. :(
