I saw that too, but then the game works different as advertised.

Have you experienced someone else in the past few months / year? Something is always stuck in these oh so great games of chance. And then again a damn SEC every month. Congratulations totem, with this crap you become more and more unappealing to me. 😠

Maybe we need a re-branding then, instead of 'Special Event Cards' call them 'Exclusive Cards'?

For sure. They will then alternate every two weeks. In the second week of each month an "ExC" and, as has been the case for six months now, every fourth week an "SEC". Good day too ... 😐

To fight the Covid-19

At 153 scratches, 2x500 credit reloads later a bunch of credit won (but put back in the system), a SEC won that I didn't actually scratch off, and a bunch of cards I will be hiding with the handy new hide feature, good job team. Its pretty bad when the product's sheep actually looks around and says something not right here.....😢

Ive done 1 500 reload in my 220 scratch tickets bought. But after 220 games is it even worth it to keep trying? Sigh. Everyone else has grabbed it in under 100. Im at 220. What does totem even say to this? This feels like highway robbery on my part.

I ***** all of you who got the card. =( I cant justify playing more then 220 games now even tho not having a special card is ***** my soul.

@arise77
Believe that today was my lucky day.
Have you heard about the current ***** buying of food and other items in the UK?
I went shopping earlier today and there was no milk and bread in the first shop I tried.
Went into another shop in the same shopping centre and got one of the last loaves of bread but still no milk.
Just after I parked my car in my garage the delivery lorry for the local convenience store went past.
Walked to that shop, waited while it was unloaded and the last pallet off the lorry was milk.

Vinna Reed and Keana Moire (no garter belts in the costume - important criterium!)

@zzmaskers - You surely kept that. What are you doing with it, maybe repairing the alternator? 😀

@gkar45 wise decision. I got most SECs during last Black Friday scratch game, odds of getting them seemed to be higher at that time.
When I saw scratch cards were 20 cred each, I thought since they were more expensive odds would probably be higher. Wrong move.
I guess I'll pass future scratch games until we can definitly win something out of it, like a free SEC or joker card after scratching a certain number of cards.

@peterbanker ✌✌✌ glad for you, enjoy your new SEC, we gave hundreds of credits for you to have it! 😉😄

Well some of you might call me a lucky xxxxxxx
I bought 8 scratch cards
Two 20 credits wins
One 100 credits win
One 2 cards win
Won the SEC
So for 20 credits I got two cards and the SEC

Bonsoir,

Je passe mon tour je suis à jour dans la collectiondonc le jeu ne peux que me faire gagner des carte spéciales mais le pourcentage pour les avoir est trés trés faible voir inexistant.

Dommage que vous persistez dans cette voie.😪😪😪😪😪😪😪😪😪😪😪😪😪😪

@gkar45 haha, I wish the masterminds behind these games were... 😆😈

@gkar45 I know, I'll get over it. Just venting. 😀 I guess I'm also disappointed because I fell in Totem's trap.

@Mover thanks for your feedback. I try not to ***** too much neither and offer solutions instead. Let's hope Totem is paying attention.

@Lokiwilliam ✌ good to see at least some of us could get the card fairly cheap.

@lokiwilliam
I do not object, but whereever I can gamble ... lottery, casino, sports bet, the quotes are published or can be calculated. Here they are not.
The only way to find out is playing, or hoping that users are posting their experience.

BTW: according to @kaiju it seems the team is changing odds while the game is ongoing. From my 47 draws, 30 were played in afternoon, and the rest in evening. The evening quotes were better.

I also have a full collection. I bought 10 cards for 200 credits.

The first scratch card, I won the new Stacy Cruz SEC. Over the next 9 Scratch cards I won 5 lots of 20 credits, and 2 lots of 100 credits.

In total I finished up 100 credits, plus the new SEC. This time I was Lucky, the last SEC i was down 300 credits overall before I won. Like any form of gambling, sometimes you win, sometimes you lose. If you dont think the odds are in your favour, then don't play.

I had a feeling, odds were unfavourable in the recent scratch games, and stopped early limiting losses. This time I wanted know more precisely, and decided to play until the first major win, i.e., 100 credits (or more), or a special event card. This happened at draw #47 with 200 credits won.
Here is my personal result:
• 7 wins of 10 credits (I don’t quite understand why because this was not announced. I saw empty circles in these instances.)
• 20 wins of 20 credits
• 0 wins of 100 credits
• 1 win of 200 credits
• 0 wins of two cards
• 0 wins of special cards
Total spent: 940 credits. Total return: 670 credits. Total loss 270 credits or 30% of what I spent. Had I stopped any time earlier, the loss was rather 50%. For 270 credits, I alternatively could have purchased the next 25 cards published given my current customer level. I acknowledge one factor could be bad luck, but with close to 50 draws, I expect my quotes being not too far away from average. So far the experiment.

Now my personal conclusion: I have always liked this company, the product, and the people. I still do, but I consider these quotes fairly unfavourable, especially since true chances are unpublished. In my opinion any such game should be fun for the customer and rather give a bonus than a loss.
I understand the game is probably more attractive for customers with less cards in their collection, but then, couldn’t the company design the games to be attractive for all customers? I would have ideas ))))

@gkar45 yes I kinda got that 😉 was just asking Kaiju how this was supposed to make us feel better.

@goodwolf agreed, I should have read your post this morning. 😄

@imhorny5555 congrats! I'm glad for you.
Totem, why not give the same chances to everyone? If all the players could get the card after a certain amount of scratch cards, I'm sure more people would play and wouldn't mind spending a couple hundred credits on just one card.

I spent a ton of credits trying to get the Special Event card and not once did I get it. I got all of the other awards, but not that one. Something's not right.

Give me Stacy Cruz's Hard Candy!

The odds might have been "adjusted" since. There has been a stream of people ***** they couldn't get the card or other SECs since this morning, but suddenly hoardx comes and gets 2 SECs (including today's one) in 38 tries.

No offense @hoardx, I'm happy for you. Just it looks like it took all our ***** credits and complaints for other members to get it faster.

As a full collection user I spent 1000 credits on 50 scratch cards, got the SEC and won back 740. A loss of 260 credits about covers the free bonus credits I gained from buying the bulk credit offers from awhile ago.

Not saying it was worth it but I got out easy.

It was a long time that I have not gambled. But this time I believed in my luck and I can say I was lucky. 38 attempts (760 credits spent), 460 credits back, 16 new cards (with Harley parodic show from Estonika more expansive than the others), 2 special event cards with Hard Candy. And I stopped immediatly when I won the SEC of my beloved Stacy Cruz ! That was the goal and I'm very happy ! Very lucky this time too...

Stay home and stay away from the casinos :)

As a long time member I dare to give advice to the company.
I simply don't play gamble games anymore, so there is no problem with me.
But in these quarantine times, generally speaking, people obviously tends - and will tend more and more - to be more angry and susceptible than usual.
My advice is not to pushing too much, during these times, on gamble games and exclusive cards, which have always been controversial among users. Not so few people could get really angry this time, even with few or no reasons, and stop using this software.

I agree in general and especially in these times! I believe that Totem's policy with the gaming and the Special Event Cards is a ***** - especially for long time members and collectors - I wrote this in the forum for several times!

Hi @kaiju,
thanks for your reply, however you will agree there's not much fun in getting cards you don't particularly want for over double the price (as I explained, spending 480 credits for what is normally 227 credits worth of cards).

How exactly will you adjust the odds for credits we've already spent?

I hope you, the team and everybody stay safe too. Take care.

Hi
The scratch card price doesn't take in account your VIP status. For many members, this is very advantageous, even with 720P card.
The gains are calculated so the cards cost cheaper than if you bought them individually but sometimes the odds are not for the benefit of a particular client.

Our goal is to provide you with fun, not frustration.So we'll try to figure out how to adjust the odds to avoid as much as possible the kind of situation you described.

I'll keep you posted.

Have a great weekend guys. Stay safe.

So what you're saying is veteran members shouldn't play these games? OK, got it :(

LOL --- Another Gambling game in the middle of CoViC-19 and people have LOST everything even there jobs and you want MORE shame on you Totem... GoodBye....

• I'll come back when you smarten the hell up!

This site is pretty helpful for that. https://www.isworkshop.eu/

She's hot don't get me wrong. And she's hot enough for me to participate this one time, but for the most part, it's not worth it. It's gambling, yes, and casinos make a ***** ton of money off of people who play these types games, but this isn't a casino and it isn't really the best business model tbh.

idk, that's just me venting. I'm probably butthurt lol

Thanks

What I don't understand is they want us to dumb a bunch of money on the slim chance of getting a "special" card.. How about giving us a preview so we can see if we even want the damn thing.

I pretty much never do these because I know how much money they make and how much I will waste, but since I'm stuck indoors, I set a limit on how much I wanted to spend/make back in "prize credits." I got 54 scratch cards and didn't win the Special Event Card.

I am totally against the Special Event Cards! I wrote this in the forum for several times. It is really disappointing that you will never have the chance to buy one of them. If they call the sampling of model cards collection, they don't think that it is absurd that collectors cannot complete their collections of their favorite models because those Special Event Cards exist. They declared that you can get the Special Event Cards on top of the regular! But this is a statement without any worthy sense! They should give collectors the chance under certain conditions (sampled number of cards, state of membership, number of complete collections). Maybe it is not totally hopeless that Totem makes up its mind. I am sure that I won't play games with a waste of credits to get one of the Special Event Cards!
Keep safe and uninfected by the Corona-Virus!

I would like to suggest that during ths week where we are all self isolated why dont we have the SEC cycle through our previews at a higher cost. Many of us will be on the program this week as we are at home and this for sure would create a high volume of sales. I know there is an offer for the Live Girls but I think an offer like this would go a long way to settling an issue that has caused a lot of angst over the last couple of years and certainly keep many of us occupied and focused on these ladies vice all that is happening in the world around us.

Paris is on lockdown...there is no way they are going to give cards away for a standard price, even 10x the original. They are going to be relying on special event cards and promotions to get them through to August. They have two months of cards but that only gets us to June, and France will still be near the peak of the pandemic at that point, hopefully on the downward part of the curve. Sadly I am afraid that more cards than usual are going to become "special" as they have nothing to lose at this point. They will be ***** money once their last cards run out.

Oh I know, trust me. I find it actually a bit funny now. I guess 2 votes for the new SEC is telling as to how many people are winning them in this weeks game.

Dare to dream, dare to dream....

2 LECs. 93 other cards. 50 are 1080p or higher which is all I use/bother to install anymore.

Was 220 cards worth 2 LECs and 48 other cards? And not even the main card? ***** if I know. But I dont want this card that much to spend more money.

Btw. Total scam. Unless you consider 220 tries worth 2 other LECs. With what I paid for 220 tries I could have bought the fucking card for 10x the price of a normal card.

Oh, and I still didnt get her. I have 1 joker left and unless its Elfie, Ava Black, Jia, Li Moon, Rya, Red Fox or Ellie Leen then Im not using it. RIP LECs.

what makes this card special?
Nothing makes the card special, it's the way to get it.

Maybe we need a re-branding then, instead of 'Special Event Cards' call them 'Exclusive Cards'?

Ok the game is totally buged.
I won two cards and got the special event card, because there is no other card left in the store.

what makes this card special?

Nothing makes the card special, it's the way to get it.

Can't remember for sure but I think that the 10 credits icon is missing from those. I won 10 credits a few times and got the blank icons a few times and got the win sound (as TheEmu stated earlier). I don't remember a 10 credits icon so I've put 2 and 2 together. Apologies if I've made 5 :)

I saw that too, but then the game works different as advertised.

Hi @Tommy7358

I think that's not possible, the Videoclips are already recorded. There are Tools like FFmpeg

https://trac.ffmpeg.org/wiki/FancyFilteringExamples

where you can Mirror a Video, but I am not sure how that Works with the .vghd Files. I think there is no Way, but let's See what other poeple say.

Why do I get empty slots?

I can live with having special event cards but what I don't understand is what makes this card special? Nothing from the looks of the card screams special event to me so why this one? Why did we not have a St Patricks day card where one of the girls was covered in green body paint? That would at least be worth the effort required to obtain the card in my opinion.

Why do I get empty slots?

It's as the title says. I want to make the models come out from the left side instead of the default right but I can't find any options in the settings. I could swear that there was an option once. And yes, I know that I can just manually ***** the girls to the left but I wish to make it happen by default?

Any help would be appreciated, thanks in advance guys.

Bought 49 scratch cards
480 credits down
won 100 cred. twice
won 20 cred. 15 times

got 20 cards
8 are 720p quality
3 are 1080p
9 are 3k

That's an average of 24 credits per card. If I had bought these cards individually, that would have been total of around 227 credits.
In addition to that, I count at least 3 that were already in my collection.

Let's suppose most people play this game in order to get a special card. @team don't you think that after spending 480 credits, one would at least get one of these cards and/or that other random cards would be cheaper?

@fallen0ne thanks for your support, I've been also a long time member, and have spent thousands of euros here over the years. I hope our feedback will help other members realise how rigged this game is, and will stop people from playing.

@gkar45 we might disagree on terminology, but you got the point.
Here are just the stats:

Let's suppose most people play this game in order to get a special card. Don't you think that after spending 480 credits, we should at least get one of these cards, or that the other cards we get are discounted?

I guess this is "business as usual" :)

I had to try my luck again today and I must say it was not a bad day...
Even though I won a lot off cards I will not download I got the Hard Candy Card and also a few credits to spare...

Spent 200 credits. Got 40 back. "Won" 6 cards I don't want. All done with this "game."

Support will do nothing for most of you without a screenshot.
I know from experience.
A few scratch games ago I won 2 special event cards but only received one.
It did not show up in the records so they told me nothing can be done about it.
I suggest anyone playing these games have a screen recorder or take a screenshot and check your records to make sure you got what you won.
Screen recorder will be best just don't have a girl playing at the same time if your pc or laptop has low specs.
Good luck to all who take part.
