- July 24, 2004, 11:55:20 PMHere's what Pogo has to say about it.
If the tokens you get from the spinner are being added before the spinner is done 'spinning', it's because there's been a delay between the time when the game pulls up the random results of the spinner, and when it actually displays the image to you for that amount inside the jackpot spinner.
When you get a Jackpot spin, the game sends a signal to the game server saying, "Give this person a Jackpot Spin". The game starts the 'spinner' animation (which is what you see) and waits for the game server to respond with the results of the random spinner. The result is just a number. 99% of the time, the game is able to show you the graphic for that amount (say, 100 tokens) and THEN add them to your total. Sometimes, however, connection lag causes those steps get reversed, and it adds the tokens BEFORE the results can be displayed where you see them.
In these cases, the results of your Jackpot Spin are still random (and they are still recorded), the results just get processed in the wrong order.
Sooo...i guess clicking on the *stop* button on the animated spinner is as usefull as using a tire iron to slice your bread....lolll

I think the jp spin is predetermined once you reach it. ;)
Exactly. the best way to see that is during a challenge or I noticed it in Tri peaks.

- July 24, 2004, 10:38:44 AMPersonally Duckie, I don't think it makes a hill of beans whether you stop it yourself or let it stop on it's own. I've watched my tokens go up before the jackpot spin stops.

- July 24, 2004, 10:31:27 AMdo you guys think there is a difference between stopping the Jackpot spinner compared to letting it run through and stopping itself....???
