You can see the recent bonus cuts are in full effect on the recent christmas promotion as well.
The stream was already much worse than last year ( smaller bonus buys and kind of less drops ) and especially the last drop was a full scam, haha.
Eddie didn't change the nonce so the result of picking the drop was the same as the last regular drop ( which was the 2nd lowest outcome ).
All the people in the chat told him, he didn't care and said the outcome is different, even though claims and wager requirement was exactly the same result. So the amount was also the same falling on 13$ of possible 30$, which is basically the same as the previous 3$ of possible 9$. Very frustrating dealing with a person who just doesn't care and can't admit his own mistake.
Now to the telegram drops. Last year every drop for the xmas promo had 5000 claims with 5$ and different wager, maybe starting at 8-10k. Now there are only 2000 drops for 5$ with much higher wager. And since the drop amount is so low they are gone within 20 seconds yet again , well done stake.
Very disappointing work by the marketing team yet again.
Well, one thing I think most of us fail to understand most of the time is that, one thing constant in life is change, I am not a very active customer of Stake but I've never seen or read in a place they said that the bonus amount will always be the same year after year, or month after month, or week after week.
If the company did not make as much profit as they made the last time bonus was substantial, you don't expect them to run the casino at a loss all because they want to pay customers the same amount of bonus they paid them the last time.
Anyways, I am not defending stake though, this is just my thought or what I think rather.
