So, we are getting several Bonus Drops for the 25 Days of Xmas promotion, but is this coming at a cost to many of us? I wager almost every day on Stake Original Games, so I get a good feel for what the normal RTP would look like. What I have noticed is this, whenever there are "reloads" or "Bonus Drops" ..... the RTP of these games are turned to what we call,
Feeding mode.
So the theory is, when these promotions are running... Stake just tune the RTP for the original Games and it goes into feeding mode to get back the money that Stake paid out in these promotions.
This "feeding Mode" kills all attempts to wager, because it is almost double what it is normally. We have a team of about 55 players that are testing this and they confirm that they are experiencing the same thing. Now, this is in no way illegal to do this, because someone has to pay for these Bonus Drops, but is this counter productive?
Do the players want a good RTP for a nice gaming experience or do they want those Bonus Drops with a "Feeding" mode enabled?
Let's put this to a vote to see what they want ==>
