Hello all,
I am not sure where I can get this information so I thought I would post it here. I noticed that the ‘Ticker’ now shows about $82k on it… Yesterday it was at almost $2 million. I would be surprised that it could have been won at $2 million and then jumped right back up to $82k….
Anyone know any info on this? I thought that I would get updated in email if there were a winner.
Thanks in advance!
looks like kwblue
Sure does look like it.
It’s Saturday – everyone is off work. Maybe tomorrow someone will tell us.
Very funny…. I think I would do more partying than posting if I won THAT jackpot! :smoker:
Lol – me too. :happydanc :cheers: :happydanc
I expect to hear it from an affiliate program….
My data shows that Gold Rally was won today at 11:18 AM GMT, give or take 5 minutes. The estimated value of the jackpot was $1,853,849.56.
However, I note that my data has also recorded some errors due to the Playtech feeds occasionally resetting or sending the wrong data. So it is still possible that we are experiencing another one of those hiccups – but I have pretty good reason to believe that the jackpot has actually been won.
The reset (seed) value of Gold Rally is $75K – but due to the heavy amount of play on this jackpot recently, it is entirely possible that it could have reset at $82K pretty quickly.
My data at SlotCharts has the jackpot at $1,853,758 at 2:10 AM Central. Then at 2:15 AM it was $75,184. Looks like somebody is much happier today!
Between the two of us, we differ less than $100 – and I didn’t check what the jackpot reset to, so I guess this is a pretty good indicator that someone hit the jackpot – and it ain’t me that’s much happier LOL.
Of course, our server times may be off by a minute or two… LOL…
I think it´s lazy from the holders point of wiev to he affiliates.
This is not the firs´t time tha affiliate got the newa last in line.
:flamer:Shame on everyone who wantto have a ball and then not want to show who go :happydanc :angel:
I spoke to a rep late last night & was told the BIG win was at sCasino (Swiss Casino).
Waz, it takes time to do a number of things.
First of all, they need to check that everything was in order – no glitches, malfunctions, etc.
Secondly, they need to talk with the person who won it, verify identity, etc, explain how to collect their winnings.
Thirdly, they need to prepare a proper news release.
And lastly, many companies don’t work on Saturdays.
No official news has been released to any one – not the public and not the affiliates. So it’s a bit premature to say that we are the last to be told.
The only reason anyone can confirm the likelihood of the jackpot having fallen is because BJInfo and I run independent data monitoring services.
BTW, based on his info and mine, I predict that the jackpot actually fell at 2:14 AM CST based on BJInfo’s time and that the final value will be slightly higher than the number I posted (which was recorded at 2:13).
I have confirmation that the win was at Swiss Casino. More as I learn of it.
The official release:
