If anyone is interested, as we'll be hearing more about this in the coming weeks, here are a few of the decisions made for online slots and casinos in the UK market.
"The new rules include the outright ban of features that give the illusion of control over the outcome; slot spin speeds faster than 2.5 seconds; autoplay, which the UKGC says can lead to players losing track of their play; and sounds or imagery which give the illusion of a win when the return is in fact equal to, or below, a stake.
Furthermore, a permanent ban on reverse withdrawals will also come into effect, and operators have been instructed that they must clearly display total losses or wins and time played during any online slots session to players."
I think we'll be picking more up as we go about this, if it isn't already mentioned in a thread elsewhere.
So 24 spins a minute, that's still 1440 an hour, easily long enough to lose a £300@ 40p spins on Bonanza in 60 minutes. And you'll have worn your space bar, touchscreen or mouse out in the meantime. :laugh:
I can see it now, how they will get around this - "No reverse withdrawals? - let's make the games so low in RTP a player could never action a withdrawal anyway!"
