[4 Deuces]

Thank you so much Jim and everyone else who helps you at Bettor Slots!
Last year was my first time entering when I joined the site and it was a lot of fun to go to Laughlin and meet everyone.
Looking forward to it again this year.

Yes, thanks Jim, this a very generous thing you do.  No wonder I enjoy doing business with you.  Raedy to make some more donations.  :-)

Hey Jim, will the kits be minty?  Are the strips backlit and washable and will they be blemish free?   Are there any scratches or chips on the glass?  Are they 2CM or 3CM kits?  Will photos be available to inspect the glass and strips?  Are there SB chips and DSV SIMMs included and are they original?

Ok I'm kidding, I'm kidding!!  Lol!!  

Thanks again for the generosity to NLG and good luck to all!

Jason

You're an a** by nature, right??? Just kidding my friend....aren't we all after the best?!?!

[Regislive]

Need the "How To Enter" details for us new guys.   

Coming soon...working out a few details.

Can't wait to learn how to enter....maybe I won't need to buy the bluebird I am wanting!

[qbert]

I used the instructions from the 3rd annual.
I'm assuming you get one chance for every $25 bucks you donate to NLG. (don't forget to include your NLG name on the donation)
I did that today so I'm hoping to have an entry. Probably more to follow since this is a truly great site, really helpful group of folks.
Got to be better odds than my slot machines paying the max jackpot!

Thx Joey...that helps....traveling right now and hard to get this done with an iPhone...will be back at the shop Tuesday and will get'em posted.

[knagl]

An important note, as in previous years:

When making your PayPal donation to the site, PLEASE DO NOT MAKE ANY MENTION OF "ENTRIES", "RAFFLE TICKETS", "DRAWING TICKETS", ETC!

In previous years NLG had some hassles with PayPal after folks mentioned these things in their donations, as PayPal frowns upon using their service to facilitate anything that even borders on a raffle or gambling.  Please keep it simple and just include your NLG username with your dontation -- the folks at NLG will award you entries to the raffle without you needing to spell out the purpose of your donation.

[AnDaLe!]

Will you soon be posting updates on the entries as you have done in the past (so we can confirm we are entered for our donation)?

Thanks!!

[Joeylc]

Stat is working on a list and will post it soon

FOURTH ANNUAL NLG     BettorSlots.com    GIVEAWAY   -  RULES AND REGS


 


WIN ONE OF 6 GREAT PRIZES !!!!




EVENT HIGHLIGHTS:

The Bettor Slots Company will be giving away several prizes to those that participate with a Grand Prize and Second Place Prize of a fully decked out and detailed PREMIUM slot machine.  There are also some great runner-up prizes….so check out the details below.


FORMAT:

This giveaway is open to all NLG members.  The prize winners will be selected raffle style by selecting they’re “name from a hatâ€�.  Any winner from last years event may also be eligible to win again this year.  Selection of winners shall be pulled in order of Grand Prize First and down from there.

The first pulled ticket / name out of the hat will be placed on the table in full view and shall be the Grand Prize Winner.  The second pulled ticket / name out of the hat will be placed on the table in full view and shall be the Second Place Winner.  No single Member may win more than one prize.  In the event that the name on the second place ticket matches that of the first, it will be announced "we have a duplicate" and that ticket shall be set aside.  This process will continue until a unique name is pulled for the 2nd place winner.  Once the 2nd place winner is established, the 3rd, 4th, 5th, and 6th place finishers shall be established in the same manner.  

Although prize winners will be pulled in order from 1st place price to last, they will be announced in order from last place prize to first.

Any prize winner 1st through 6th may gift their prize to any other NLG member provided they took part in this event and obtained a raffle ticket.  Their name and prize will be published.



HOW TO GET A RAFFLE TICKET:

Simply make a $25 donation to NLG by clicking the DONATE button at the bottom of this page.  

YOU CAN MAKE MULTIPLE $25 DONATIONS AND OBTAIN MULTIPLE TICKETS TO INCREASE YOUR ODDS.  

BE SURE TO INCLUDE YOUR NLG "HANDLE" IN THE MEMO PORTION WHEN YOU DONATE.    

PLEASE DO NOT MENTION THE EVENT IN THE MEMO TO AVOID PROBLEMS WITH PAYPAL...YOU WILL BE IDENTIFIED AND A TICKET AWARDED BASED ON YOUR HANDLE NAME.


AUDIT OF ENTRIES:

Throughout this event all NLG Member's participating shall have their "handle" name posted with the number of entries / tickets purchased.  Each individual member is required to verify their name and number of entries purchased.  NLG or Bettor Slots will not be held liable if no claim is made by the member within 24 hours of the date of the drawing.


CAN I OBTAIN MORE THAN ONE TICKET ???:

YES you can!!!  You all know how a slot machine works right?  The RND on the computer board reaches into the "hat" and pulls out a symbol for each reel....and why does the "BLANK" hit most often on the line over any other?  There are more cards in the "hat" with BLANK written on them than any other symbol.  If you want to increase your chances of winning...make sure your name is on more cards than anyone else's.  

IMPORTANT DATES:

Anyone that wishes to participate must obtain their ticket no later than 23:59 PDT (11:59 PM PDT), APRIL 19, 2013.  The actual drawing will occur at 15:00 PDT (3:00 PM PDT), April 20, 2013.  The drawing will be video recorded and posted on this site for all to see this same day later in the evening.

ODDS OF WINNING:

In our opinion...better than your State Lottery.  Actual odds of winning are directly proportional to the number of tickets versus the number of participants which cannot be determined at this time..


GOOD LUCK EVERYONE !!!

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS:



Q:  Does Bettor Slots receive any of the proceeds from this event?

A:  Zero, nada, none.  All proceeds go to NLG.


Q:  Does the drawing occur at the BettorSlots.com place of business?  Can we come and watch?

A:  No and Yes.  To insure there is no question about favoritism and because NLG receives all accounting information with each donation, I have requested that the draw occur at the NLG Headquarters.  The draw will be filmed and posted here for all to see.  In addition, the names will be pulled by GCMommie’s daughter or other volunteer.  If you want to stop by the NLG Command center to watch the draw I am sure that would be fine.


Q:  Can I stop by to pick up our prize?

A:  Of course and plan to stay awhile…we can tool around in the shop and play in the showroom some if you like.  You can also pick up your prize at the NLG Command Center.


Q:  Where will you ship the prizes to?

A:  Winners of the 1st and 2nd place prizes are responsible for the cost of shipping expense to their local terminal or residence.  I will ship to Canada, Alaska, Arizona, Arkansas, Kentucky, Maine, Minnesota, New Mexico, Nevada, Ohio, Rhode Island, Texas, Utah, Virginia, and West Virginia.  I will not ship to Alabama, Connecticut, Hawaii, Indiana, Nebraska, South Carolina, Tennessee, or Wisconsin.  All other States I will ship to provided you have a current DOJ.  If you live in any other location, you might consider picking up your machine at Bettor Slots, or picking up at NLG Headquarters, or gifting your prize.

A#2:  Winners of the 4th, 5th, and 6th place prizes will have their prize shipped free of charge within the 48 continental states.  We will also ship to worldwide provided the shipping expense is paid for my the winner minus a $10 credit.


Q:  Can I receive the cash equivalent of the prize value?  Are there any substitutions available?  Can you sell my machine and then give me the cash equivalent? 

A:  No and No and No.


Q:   If I win First or Second Prize, can I apply my Bettor Bucks towards parts or anything else other than a slot machine?

A:   No, First or Second Prize must select a machine paying our competitive retail pricing. 


Q:   If I win 3rd through 6th Prize, do I have to buy parts with it or can I apply my Bettor Bucks towards a machine?

A:    Yes, you can put your Bettor Bucks towards the purchase of a machine.


Q:    Will Bettor Slots or NLG pay for the freight of my machine to my home?

A:    No, the winners of the First and Second Place prizes are responsible for either picking up the machine or paying for their own freight expense.  However, they may apply their Bettor Bucks towards the cost of freight.  For example, if the First Place winner selects a machine and their total cost is less than 1,500 Bettor Bucks, then the cost of freight would be free.  Another scenario might be that the winner of the First Place prize selects a machine and that combined with their freight expense is more than 1,500 Bettor Bucks...in that case the winner would responsible for the cost of whatever the overage is.



Good luck and lets have some fun !!!

Thanks for the update Jim. The rules are clear and simple. Again a big thank you to NLG and Bettorslots for your time and effort put into this giveaway.

[Bettor Slots]

I'm sure you all noticed a difference in the prize format this year.  Instead of me "pre-picking" a list of machines for the prizes it occurred to me that you all might just like to pick out whatever you like.  Soooooooo....this year you get it YOUR WAY...let's see how it goes.

Every week or so I will be posting pictures of whatever we are working on in the shop hopefully to tempt you all   .

This past week was official I-Game week.  The current group of I-Games we have in are super sweet with Black Lacquered finish.  We probably have about 40 + titles in stock in both 3902 and 044's.   Of those pictured here, 3 of these are already sold, but at the moment we have doubles or triples of all the titles shown.



*** The fine print....our stock changes almost daily so I cannot guarantee that any of the machines pictured will be available at the conclusion of this event, but we will do our best.  If something catches your eye...and you don't want to slip away, feel free to call.
