Tester.
Number 1 worked.I can't believe it.You may have just rekindled my faith in human nature.Even the micro casinos to the last never knew how to help me.
Are you the second coming?
I notice you are from Jerusalem!
I hope i win enough to take you up on your royalty quote,i really do,obviously.

Right,number2..Does this ring a bell?
When i try to resize,the screen clicks off,goes blank,then returns to the one its on.(the next one)
The same thing happens when i click on a micro icon on my desktop.It tries to go to the casino,but resizes first.When it auto resizes,the screen goes blank and i can't see the casino.I can hear it,but not see it.I have to press escape to exit the blank screen.
I just thought i'd mention this in case theres an easy fix you know of.Number 1 looks quite complicated,but i'll give it a go if i have to.
Thanks again..

Two solutions:
1) Caution - do it on your own risk!
1.1) in the start menu click "Run"
1.2. Type in "regedit"
1.3. HKEY_CURRENT_USER -> Software -> MicroGaming -> Thumper -> Casino -> RoxyPalace. (you may choose any other casino of MG)
1.4. In the right side of thye window you will see directx - 0x00000000 (0). Point the mouse on directX. One left click.
1.5. On the upper menu click "edit" then modify on the submenu.
1.6. Under "Value Data" change 1 to 0.
1.7. Run the MG prog under question and enjoy.
1.8. Pay me several grands. Just royalities
2) Changing the screen properties to 640*480 resolution, running the program and changing the needed, then restore screen properties. The problem: some programs and Windows will get confused from the forth - back changes in screen properties.

When you run the MG program you have on the top a menu. That menu contains "options" click it and you will get a submenu containing "Video Options" click there and get a window where you have to choose between "DirectX 640....." which means Full screen, and "Run on standard desktop" which means no full screen.

On MG you can click Options, and select Run on Standard Desktop. I do this every time I start a new MG casino, don't like them monkeying with my screen resolution.

This is amazing. They've changed the terms again (maybe they change them daily lol)! It used to be wager the bonus eight times after you recieved it. Now you have to wager the purchase and bonus five times!
On a $1000 deposit you receive $280 bonus. You used to have to wager $1000 (to get the bonus) and then wager another eight times $280. Total wagering required would be $3240 under the old rules. Now you'd have to wager $1000 plus another five times $1280. Total wagers required is now $7400.

Okay,some of you here have witnessed how crap i am at reading and understanding the full terms and conditions properly.
Anyway,fraggle has been captured again..
Now,my monitor wont resize to the maximum resolution.So;most of the microgaming casinos wont work because they auto-upsize your monitor when you enter the casino.So;i only play the micro flash.
Check this out...Roxy terms and conditions:This offer is alid for the first purchase made by new Real players at Roxy Palace ("the Casino") and is not transferable. This offer is only alid for the download casino and is not alid for the Flash (no download) casino.
Yes,once again.My eyes have deceived me.Joeyl plays and loses his deposit and was ahead too.He carries on with gay abandon knowing he will atleast have the same as he put in to play,if he loses...
Now,i wont get caught again.But i gotta ask if anyone noticed this rule before they played here?
Also,has anyone any idea what the differ... | | Read Entire Entry |

$100 to be able to post and read Fatbonus... That, IMO is rediculous. Yes, it's a good resource, but I have not found much there that I couldn't have found anyway, with regard to bonuses offered at casinos. I did not re-sign up, once it went to membership for fee. I do suppose it gives them a small private club to share info, however.

Sirius: You were banned from Fatbonus!
One of their members posted that for just $25 fee, he would email them all the postings posted at Fatbonus so they wouldn't have to pay $100 to join up.
But wonder how much is going on there. A friend told me that they just have mainly screeds of Golden Palace promos posted now.
Their postings seemed more informational than at most boards.

That is not good. I hope anyone who signed up for this prior to the change in T&C has a print out of the terms as they were when the bonus was received, assuming this would disqualify their play.

The terms listed on the casino site seem to have changed though! It now replaces the word 'Blackjack' with 'Baccarat' in the list of games that dont count in the promo! So now Baccarat isn't allowed towards the wagering requirements instead of Blackjack!
Potential problems here. I'm not sure if they are trying to catch people out.

Sirius you're great that's the casino i'm referring to... But like always one needs self control.. I could have learned my lesson the hard way this time since i've started playing without the bonus and lost it. However when they gave me the bonus i managed to tow it up...
Why do i never learn

More likely they just got confused as to which one they wanted to rule out. Had they stuck with Blackjack ruled out, they would be just like Vegas Villa, where Baccarat is the game to play.
Roxy looks tempting, hoping to hear they are okay.

Microgaming software by the way..
Your expected loss betting the Banker would be about $10, leaving you with $90 of the bonus. But if you can play the single deck blackjack, the expected loss would be only about $1 with correct strategy.

Anyone else notice that the terms have changed?
I noticed the promo conditions are different to the ones posted on a couple of message boards.
I first read it on fatbonus today (which I've now been banned from hehe) and then I found a different site which had the promo.
Both message board sites had the same conditions but the casino site is now different!
Compare:
'oyster' board (first time I've isited and it seems ok)
http://pub51.ezboard.com/foysterboa...icID=2051.topic
and
The casino terms and conditions at the casino site:
http://www.roxypalace.com/fs_bonus_t.html
Still see the difference?
