Mega Spins slot feature explained


If you ever need an example of how incredibly determined the human race is to consistently innovate you only need to look at the worldwide gambling industry, as this has been responsible for countless innovations over the years. Just take the game of roulette, for example, a highly intoxicating gambling game with free spins that just would not have been possible without Blaise Pascal’s crucial work in designing a perpetual motion machine.

And then we get to the question of slot machines, which were invented in the late 1800s but very quickly gained a massive crowd of benefactors due to the intense fun of the gambling games. In fact, little more than a hundred years later we have all sorts of slot machine types, and many of them even reside online! There are an outrageous amount of cool developments during this time that we could speak about, however we think that the Mega Spins slot feature is certainly one of the most exciting. Read ahead for an article on the Mega Spins slot feature explained. 

Mega Spins slot feature: What is it?


So then, the first thing to explore is what exactly the Mega Spins feature is; otherwise there wouldn’t be much point to this article. Let us ask you this, have you or any of your slot gambler friends ever wished you could spin multiple sets of reels simultaneously on the same game? Sounds like outrageous fun to us, and you will be happy to know that this is pretty much exactly what the Mega Spins slot feature is.

In fact, on a Mega Spins slot you could be spinning up to 5 sets of reels at the same time, and we would not be surprised if developers are working to increase this number even more. Mega Spins slots are not for the faint hearted however, as keeping track of that many sets of reels is incredibly difficult business. But here’s the thing: the pay offs from Mega Spins slots can be huge because of the added reels, so it isn’t all bad! 

Mega Spins slot feature: The history

Now, it is also incredibly informative to look at the history of Mega Spins slots, as it can give you a welcome insight into the development of these cracking gambling games. We are sure nobody would be surprised to learn that Mega Spins slots did not exist in the early days of slot gambling, as there was no way that Charles D. Fey or any of his cotemporaries could work out how to mesh a number of reels together.

In fact, it wasn’t until the 70s and 60s that a few Mega Spins slots would start to pop up in Las Vegas casino slot halls, and these were rapturously received. The problem with these machines is that they were quite expensive to design and build, so they remained quite rare. This all changed, however, with the emergence of online slots in the 21st century, and now it really isn’t difficult to find a Mega Spins slot.

GeekSpeak – Will you survive the Technological Singularity? Join the discussion Saturday July 18th at 12pm SLT



In a few short years the technological singularity will arrive.  Computers will not only be faster than humans, they will be more intelligent in every way and their intelligence will continue to increase.  And it is closer than you think.

How will it affect us personally?  Will we be treated as pets?  Will we enjoy being pets?   Will there be wars between different AI systems?  Will humans be involved in the computer wars?  Maybe you think our daily lives will not be affected much.  After all, even if it wants to, a superintelligent AI cannot make us happy.  We still have to work that out for ourselves.
How will the total AI domination roll out?  What jobs will be lost?  How will we live?  Will there ever be a time when it all collapses and humans can go back to ‘normal’ again?  

Come and discuss our future as pets.  Bring your friends, and your pets.

LUXE Paris LOOK of the YEAR The JUDGES' BRUNCH A PROFITABLE MEETING IN AN ENCHANTING VENUE!



The twelve finalists of the LUXE Paris LOOK of the YEAR competition met the jury for the first time on Sunday in an enchanting venue, all flowery in pink and white, specially created for the event by LUXE Paris designers, Parisian Skytower and Mika Palmyra.

So far the judges have voted by referring to photos submitted by the participants but on Sunday they had the opportunity to meet the finalists in person. Examining their style and evaluating their elegance, they also listened to them with attention. Each of the finalists went up on stage to explain why they would be a good ambassador for LUXE Paris.

The LUXE Paris LOOK of the YEAR competition aims to find an ambassador for the brand, an elegant and stylish woman who will spark the image of LUXE Paris. 326 photos were submitted from which the judges chose thirty semifinalists and then the twelve grand finalists they met on Sunday.

After each finalist' presentation, the judges were invited to question them and there was action.The judges took their role very seriously and their questions were not easy but the finalists answered with brio and grace.

NEXT STEP: THE GRAND FINAL!

The next step is the grand final, on July 26, when the 12 finalists will compete on the runway in two fashion challenges. For the first challenge, they must create a look on the theme ''Sunny Afternoon on the French Riviera'' while the theme of the second challenge is ''A Night at the Met Gala in New York''.

The judges will assign a score to each of the finalists for each of the challenges and it is the sum of these scores that will determine who will be the next face of LUXE Paris and win L$50,000!

LUXE Paris designers, Parisian Skytower and Mika Palmyra, invited twelve personalities from the fashion industry and the media world to join them on the jury of the competition: Adonis Lubomir, owner of Swank Event, Ahn Avion, owner of the Womenstuff group, Ava Jhamin, owner of L'Amour Diversity magazine, Chema K, owner of SL Confidencial magazine, Ever Courtois, owner/designer of Tone Makeup, Frolic Mills, founder of BOSL and Miss Virtual World, Lanai Jarrico, owner of The SL Enquirer, Naar Rexen, owner of In-Nova Model Training Academy and winner LUXE Paris LOOK of the YEAR 2017, Nany Jurado, owner/designer of Bon Amour Hair and winner LUXE Paris LOOK of the YEAR 2018, Ponchituti Boucher, owner of ProPoses Modeling Poses, Quinte, winner LUXE Paris LOOK of the YEAR 2019, et Zuri Rayna, owner/designer of Zuri Jewelry.

To minimize the lag and allow the finalists to shine, the grand final in world will be a private event with only one guest by finalist and judge.

Introducing Maui Love Island!


Streaming Live August 10, 2020 on Discord!

Maui Love Island has come to SecondLife to bring you the hottest reality show that is based on the international smash hit, Love Island.  We've brought new and exciting twists to the game and are currently looking for Islanders!

   We are looking for spirited singles from across the grid who want to head to "The Valley Isle" in search of love. If you think you’ve got what it takes, then we want to hear from you!


   The matchmaking begins as a group of single "Islanders" come together in an extravagant villa on a beautiful tropical island, ready to undertake a summer of dating, romance, and ultimately, relationships. Each day will be filled with dramatic twists, and challenges; as friendships and relationships blossom. Recoupling will happen every few days and those who are left single are at risk of being dumped from the island. New Islanders will arrive throughout the game; in addition to choosing their partners wisely, Islanders must also win the hearts of viewers who have the opportunity to shape events on screen and ultimately crown one lucky couple the winner, who will then have the chance to walk away with both love and the cash prize!

GeekSpeak – Do Rich People have a duty to the World? For Saturday July 11th at noon SLT




Do you think that the very rich have an obligation to the world above the obligation of ordinary people?

Should they give a lot of money to charity?  Or start charities themselves?  Or just invest their money wisely?  If the very rich have a duty to the rest of us are they fulfilling that duty by investing in Tesla?  What more should they do?

Should the government strip the very rich of their possessions and re-distribute them?  Or are the very rich an important part of society?

Where do the rich belong?  On a pedestal or the guillotine?

What would you think if you were about to become very rich?  Would you still think the same way?  Let’s discuss the position of the ultrawealthy of our world ! Bring your friends, and your banker :)

The Flowers Are Opening In My Body July 11th – Aug 6th, 2020- New Art by NarayanRaja, also known as Shiny




I feel that all the stars shine in me. 
The world breaks into my life like a flood. 
The flowers are opening in my body. 
All the youthfulness of land and water 
smokes like an incense in my heart; 
and the breath of all things 
plays on my thoughts as on a flute.

–Rabindranath Tagore


Welcome to “The Flowers Are Opening In My Body.” 

The title of the exhibition is borrowed from the book “Fruit Gathering" by Indian mystic poet Rabindranath Tagore. First published in 1916, it was then translated by the author himself from Bengali into English.   

The exhibition features new works conjured during remote walks in nature, rare outings during four months of shelter-in-place during the Covid-19 pandemic. The artist presents digital photographic objects that harness the power of photography and analog processes. Root systems dipping into shallow summer creeks and their rippling reflections, faces in stones, snakes in the grasses, vultures, fallen and decaying Redwoods, trees scorched by California wildfires, and 130,000 fatalities in the USA.  

These are the components for spells as imagery. They serve the artist as medicine and healing. Such meditations are alchemical transmutations (mortifcatio, negredo) pondering death and decay, and thus the cycles of life, cause and effect, and its restorative, visceral earth magic potencies.

Shiny’s art navigates and guides us through an ongoing time of dying and emerging stories of self and society that call for dynamic alchemy of creativity, compassion, curiosity, and openness. These mystic pixels capture altered states of mind and seeing, all in a foreboding and delightful quest for self-knowledge.

Please join the artist and friends for the opening reception festivities.  
Day:   Saturday, July 11th   
Time: 12 – 3 PM SLT

http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Costa%20Luna/110/210/24

Exhibition  •  Refreshments  •  Free Gift •  Live Music
DJ Shiny 12:00 – 1:30 PM  •  DJ Moshi 1:30 – 3:00 PM

RUN COME CELEBRATE

The artist sends special thanks and high vibes to Nyx, Ed, the 420 Gallery for Art, and the community at Stoner Hangout for their support and encouragement..

All works are available for sale inworld. Feel free to reach out to Shiny for comments or questions.
