Rules are rules. And anyway, you can do the waiting game even from the beginning. As long as you ask a single question, you can skip out on the inactivity penalties. But if you're inactive, there's a steep penalty. But that's the point in figuring out the conditions on your own, so you can ask questions and be the only one to get useful information from them.
And if you're averaging, then you're also not taking into account the inactivity penalties (which right now amount to about 50 or so, soon to be more). With inactivity alone, that's already 5 down from the average. And that's not considering the 50+ questions asked and the 3 or 4 spins. I think, even with the newer players' tokens added into it (Kestrel's and Veteran's twenty-somethings), the average is no greater than 15 and probably much closer to 10. It just becomes a huge hassle, and it's actually kind of unfair to latecomers to the Casino. I understand where you're coming from, but I don't think I should change it up.
And anyway, what about the minigames they missed out on, and the other games that were run that they couldn't profit from yet? They're losing out on a lot as well...
Oh, and what would they win? The current jackpot of 40? Based on simply seeing what questions were asked? If it were that simple, some of you would probably have figured it out by now. Really, it's just something where they'll still have to take a lot of time in order to win anything substantial, and if they do win something without asking a single question and on their first spin, then they're either extremely lucky (which I doubt), or they painstakingly worked with the questions to see what the conditions could be, used that assumption, and correctly figured out the jackpot condition. But even that's a big stretch.
Okay, I'm rambling. Ignore me. I do this a lot when I'm thinking and typing... Basically, your fears are unfounded, or if they are founded, then they played the game better than you. And you can always get revenge in another game.
...sorry I'll stop writing now. Now. Okay, it's not stopping, but whatever. I'll force myself to hit send, and it will be over. Until next post. Wow I must be really tired and/or bored...
