- First comment is that I get a few plays here and there on the widely available Konami Quick Strikes (with the “Range” of the Minor from $25 to $50 and the Range of the Major from $250 to $100). Most of my plays are on the Minor because that’s what I seem to find. For someone like me, and for anyone who’s new to being a slot AP, we are going to want a calculator with more precision on the entry point if that’s possible. When playing for a Minor, I usually ignore the Major meter is and figure out the EV for the meter by itself. So I would like a calculator that makes precise, lower denominations on the main calculator – something like $46.55 may or may not be a play, depending on the reset point and the meter rise, etc.
Ah, right. It would be handy to be able to input a figure rather than move the slider. I’ll see if David sees this before I ping him with another email.
- Second comment is a little longer, and again, parts of this may have already been addressed above. I’m still not 100% sure what Base Return I’m supposed to be entering.
So if you scroll down on the calculator on “How to use this — plain-English guide,” we do have this currently: “Base return % — how much the machine pays back from everything except this jackpot. If you have no idea, 80% is a conservative guess.”
Does that make sense or am I overlooking something obvious?
