    I believe there’s a rhythmic system for this game. I noticed if you click the “A” button multiple times in a certain tempo, more times than not, you will acquire a certain combo almost all the time if you’re perfect haha

    There is another thing to consider: some slot machines have their third slot depend on the first two. It can be rigged such that the first two 7's show up often, but once you get two 7's, the odd of the third one drastically decrease, giving the illusion that the player is off by just a little.

    • @Filet64
      @Filet64  Před 4 lety +16

      yes, that's true! That makes me think of one of Mark Rober's videos where he analyzes that spinning light game/gimick. Though I think in this context the machine does not do this. Would love to see more about it

  • @Trick.Sparrow
    @Trick.Sparrow Před 3 lety +13

    Howdy! I've been doing some research, trying to work out a reliable way to get all 7s, but their behaviour seems a little odd.
    Each reel has a different pattern, which are as follows:
    Reel 1: P S S P S P P 7
    Reel 2: P S P S P S P 7
    Reel 3: P P S P S P P 7
    In addition, the 'reaction time' that a specific symbol requires seems to vary under certain conditions. Ordinarily, once the A button is pressed, the reel will 'skip' one full symbol, then stop. If you have already stopped a reel on '7', however, this time between A-press and the result will fluctuate: the second reel will come to a stop on the next symbol once A is pressed, *without* skipping a symbol like usual. If you line up two 7s, the third reel's behaviour becomes even stranger, seeming to alternate between stopping slowly (skipping a symbol like normal) and stopping quickly (not skipping a symbol). In maybe a dozen tests, attempting to stop the final reel using both slow and quick timings, *not once* did I manage to stop the final reel on a 7 if the first two reels were 7s.
    This was either a string of very bad luck, or the slot machines are rigged, only allowing you to stop the machine on 777 if some invisible requirement has been met. This would not surprise me, not only because the machines are run by a mob-owned casino, but because it would line up with the behaviour of the Happy Lucky Lottery outside, which categorically prevents you from winning until a certain number of real-world time has passed.
    My current theory is that you are prevented from hitting 777 until you have played the slot machines a certain number of times. This would account for people claiming to be able to hit 777 somewhat reliably after a long period of practice. I would be very keen to hear any anecdotes from people who managed to hit 777 on their first few spins of the slot machines!

    • @alan3681
      @alan3681 Před 2 lety +2

      Hey Trick, I realize your comment is over a year old but I wanted to say I appreciate your theory and research. I did not know that each reel had differences in both their symbol patterns and timing behavior, but I did know that the 7 was exactly one of the eight total symbols on each reel.
      If this anecdote of my own means anything, about a decade ago I was obsessed with the Pianta Parlor and wanted nothing more than to see how many Piantas I could earn. I eventually figured out that the Slots were the fastest way to accomplish this, as the game is actually skill-based rather than rigged to win at certain intervals like the Lottery - it’s possible to stop on three 7s every time, or at the very least, a few times consecutively.
      I relied solely on a visual cue - looking closely enough at the slot you can see the golden 7 symbol flicker by probably three times every second. With a bit of practice, one can reliably get that timing down and earn Piantas way faster than any of the other mini-games.
      All said and done, on that file back then I had a balance of over 40k Piantas. I only wish I still had that memory card, though at least I still have the actual memory of it to this day!

    I love there deep dives into small aspect of great games. But I got to say, you have established that the Don clearly does not make money from the slots, he makes money for the seating he gets from the mini games Mario can participate in. Have you seen the audiences, it's crazy? #The Don runs the Parlor at a loss to make money on attendance.

  • @spencerbowden2979
    @spencerbowden2979 Před rokem +3

    There’s this method called the lucky momentum.
    Now knowing there is only 1 7 on each slot if you ever roll sevens know exactly how long you need to wait for the 7 to circle back and land and you can easily reroll all 3 sevens as long as you don’t mess up.
    But to get this streak going you need to line up the sevens at least once and learn the full circle timing

    How do you take into account failed rolls into your percentages? I noticed your 3000 roll sample only includes wins.
    I think that including the number of failed rolls gives a more realistic percentage, since you don't win on every roll.

    • @Filet64

      I did include failed rolls; I counted the amount of times each symbol appeared, regardless of whether or not they appeared in a way that won me tokens.

    A lot of the slot machines in Pokémon were also biased toward the player.
    I didn't do any mathematical analysis, but if you play the slots in D/P/P for long enough, they'll just say "hey, push the buttons the Clefairy says 45 times and you'll automatically win".
    Also the HG/SS one was just free, but I think that was an anti-gambling localization thing.

Interesting this games slots are harder than I thought they were. Since yeah the developer does not get anything out of you losing your tokens lol.

    After taking a probability class for my Industrial Engineering major (which deals a lot with probability and whether or not something will or won't happen, I can confidently say:.... screw anyone who advertises a "chance to win" when it's actually 1 in 999,999,999 and people accidentally "donate" their life savings because they "can feel a hot streak coming on".
    These gambling addicts need help and they sure as hell aren't going to get it from the enablers/managers/owners that profit off of how much money the addicts lose. It's like a robbery but with extra steps.
    The only difference being that bystanders are going to encourage the victims to let themselves be robbed more ("c'mon just one more roll, i can feel it this time!") while the management counts down how much money the unwary/swindled custome-(I mean client) has left.
    They do all this while management sits on their throne of $100s hoping they can maybe- JUST MAYBE- put their 5 kids through the private school overseas. Since, as we all know, private schools in the US (and don't get me started on public schools!) are basically where the holocaust happened, and little Brayed, Shayden, Gayden, and Ayhaylaymayden will NOT mingle with the lower class serfs!
    /s I'm totally joking. I'm on vyvanse and it made me over explain my point, so congrats to you if you read through all the way. Lmk if it made even a lick of sense. Otherwise I just wanted to say I hate real life slot machines as they make you win just enough to make you think winning is actually an option (almost never), and lose enough to make you KNOW that you basically have to hold a slot operator at gunpoint to MAYBE win. You have a better chance at making a profit if you just sell drugs........ or your body.................... or both.

If so, I don't think it updated in my Watch Later list until after I watched it.

If you'd used the current title from the get-go, I'd have watched this video in August 2019 instead of April 2020. Just a heads up for future reference.
