It's also a bad deal if you don't really care to own any of the old cards you don't already own.

I cannot see any reason anyone would want to play these games but there are obviously very profitable for Totem.

I guess it is what it is ... so be it.

The slot machine is really a bad deal if you have all the cards.

Tania R 😍 from shows she made in summer 2016 - these images from Oneuli Beach, Fun Loving or Bright Presence, but I got them mixed up 😜 I got distracted.

I read somewhere the system takes your first rating and that's all, but if it does average them out, then I will reduce mine with this entry I hope.

I don't know where you get that, but that's wrong. Your first rating is taken, but if you change your rating after, this new rating is taken. You can't rate twice or more.
Your first comment was five stars and you changed your rating to three stars and both comments show three stars.

On "Doge Day," SEC Commissioner warns Dogecoin traders: "Don't come ***** to the government if you lose money"

Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies are decentralized, meaning they’re not controlled by a single individual but a network of computers. The whole idea of bitcoin originally was for people to be their own bank and hold money outside of the traditional financial system.

Authorities Detain 62 People in Turkey for $2 Billion Crypto Exchange Fraud
Thodex crypto exchange scam has affected nearly 391,000 customers. The total value of the lost crypto assets stands at around $2 billion.

Hundreds of thousands of users cannot get access to their digital wallets.
Police raided the company's headquarters on the Asian side of Istanbul and seized computers and digital materials

Growing numbers of Turks are turning to cryptocurrencies in a bid to shield their savings in the face of a sharp decline in the value of the Turkish lira and high inflation.

Last month, Thodex initiated a campaign to boost membership by offering millions of free Dogecoins to new registrants. Its website says 4 million of the coins were distributedIn 2019, Last month,

Turkey's central bank said last week it will ban the use of cryptocurrencies in payments for goods and services starting from April 30.


The overall market cap of digital currencies took a major hit on Friday after the crypto market lost more than 10% of its value within a single day. Bitcoin, the world’s most valuable crypto asset, is down by more than 11% within the last 24 hours as its market cap dropped below $900 billion for the first time since 6 March 2021.

Regulatory uncertainty surrounding the crypto industry. Though some countries are introducing rules aimed at bringing crypto businesses under their supervision, the industry lacks the level of scrutiny seen in more established financial markets.

In 2019, Canadian crypto exchange QuadrigaCX went bankrupt after its CEO died, resulting in millions of dollars’ worth of digital assets being trapped in a digital wallet.

I've said several times I'm lucky to have 5 jokers for getting a SEC. Now I'm very lucky to have these. 4 jokers left now for a special SEC.

Angelika Grays - Highway To Hell - if you are still wondering if it's worth playing the games.

Seeing all this debate about SECs and gambling games to get them I feel I need to make a new comment on this one. I got caught up in the moment when it first came out, I was up late and few would have seen it then, no other comments at that point. So I used my last joker. On balance now I wish a had not. Most definitely her worst card. Purely a XXX and no dancing at all, so why it's still tagged "pro dancer" I do not know. I read somewhere the system takes your first rating and that's all, but if it does average them out, then I will reduce mine with this entry I hope.
Get ALL her other cards before you get this one and don't spend too much on the games for this. It's really not worth it.
If you know the Jekyll and Hyde story, this is my Jekyll entry. The first comment was the evil Mr Hyde. I thought about deleting it, but there is info about the content of the show which is useful I hope.

This all rather a mess, these SECs and these games, not good for customer satisfaction I think.

I still get to hang on to my SE card from last year because this card is an all table card and those aren't for me. I might need it in case they plan to target a Veronica Leal card.

@All

This thread is about the incoming cards Only.... Off topic posts are subject to deletion......

That's right, 1200 credits is the amount you need to throw to get this SEC.

I haven't been partecipating to gambling games anymore for much time, but 1200 cr look to me really far, far too many...

The slot machine is really a bad deal if you have all the cards. It's a shame, because I really like Angelica Grays, but I guess I'll wait for the next scratch card game to try to get a Joker. With those, you win back credits often enough that the cost ends up being reasonable. But the slot machine just eats credits and offers a discount rate to buy - well, nothing, if you already have the cards.

Wish I could just choose to have the 720p clips default to 50% while others are at 100%.

Try turning on the "Don't zoom over 100% of the clips' original size" checkbok in the DESKTOP section of Settings.

Another gambling week... 😕

One question: Does the "every 4th card for free" deal still exists? I'm waiting so long for this one. I'm just not interested to "win" a lot of unwanted cards.

@stanston oh I know I had the one company that was bought up like 10 years ago that I had used. It was good back in the day.

My point is that now its a negative.

It wouldn't be as big of a negative if you could scale the different video clips in small mode I wouldn't mind as much because there are some great clips just is such a huge difference when seeing a 3k clip and then its 100% size of a 720p clip. Wish I could just choose to have the 720p clips default to 50% while others are at 100%.

Hey guys! I hope you'll have enough credits left to complete the first Maslow level😆

+1 but normally according to the theory if you spend money on iStripper this is because you are near the top of the pyramid and it is a hobby.

That being said, addiction to money games (call them credits or whatever as long as you need to put cash in the system this is money) is another big problem. I wonder how long it will take before iStripper to be classified an online gaming/casino stuff with the necessary regulation wrapped around...

Should have used Joker.
Should also be wiser in what games to play.

I used a joker.
Slot machine sucks and not in a good way.

@Philours
Expensive is right !!! Luck ran cold.
Only one 250 win and on balance Highway To Hell cost me 518 credits.
Should have used Joker.
Should also be wiser in what games to play.

Haven't watched the card yet, so no comment from me so far. Just downloaded the card and looked into the clips list.

O.K. O.K. Prends ton temps , une carte aussi chère doit se regarder au bon moment 😀
O.K. O.K. Take your time, such an expensive card must be looked at at the right time 😀

@Ullubu, Thanks, this must be good for you 😊 I don't see your comment on the card yet, is the xxx rating deserved? (small xxx or hard enough?)

@Ullubu, Merci, cela doit être bon pour toi 😊 Je ne vois pas encore ton commentaire sur la carte, la notation xxx est-elle méritée? ( petit xxx ou assez hard?)
@Ullubu, Thanks, this must be good for you 😊 I don't see your comment on the card yet, is the xxx rating deserved? (small xxx or hard enough?)

question for those who already have this sec card, is the card very much from Angelica Hollyboobs cards? Because I can see that there are probably there is no standing clips, dildo and masturbation ?

@henrylee7
The card is on taskbar XXX only. No standing or pole clips.

They just do not seem to understand the difference between a gift card and a joker card, at least that is how it seems to me.

I was very surprised last week that the award for filling the progress bar was only a Gift Card rather than a Joker (I would have thought that few of us would considered that a Gift Card was worth playing for) but I was not surprised that it stayed that way this week.

Real Highway to Hell with credits :-)

If they can go down the pub after work (C19 allowing?) the team will perhaps be chatting about all us customers and our thoughts on these games. Nothing's going to change now until next Friday, since nothing was changed today. They just do not seem to understand the difference between a gift card and a joker card, at least that is how it seems to me.
At least it does make it so much easier to avoid playing - no doubt about that.

For home monitor, the industry don't would do more than 8K (16K is usless). (...)

You can't be sure.
What do you say about 13,3'' UHD laptops? Is it realy necesary to have 4K in such small laptop?
Please, don't answer. I know what the answer is 😉. No matter what we think about it, some manufacturers did this.

when the people sitting in front of 16K Monitors in the near Future 😛
Because we have already 8K Tv's.

For home monitor, the industry don't would do more than 8K (16K is usless). You may see 16K or more for professionnal Giant screen (only very big screen need it... you can't call it a monitor, it's more like a wall).

1200 credits is the amount you need to throw to get this SEC.

Pourquoi si cher? On avait l'habitude de remplir la barre pour 500 ou 1000 crédits maximum si mes souvenirs sont bons.
Haaaaaaaaaa l'inflation c'est terrible cette chose 😢 1200 c'est beaucoup pour moi et cela demande réflexion avant de commencer à jouer 😦
[quote] 1200 credits is the amount you need to throw to get this SEC. [/ quote]
Why so expensive? We used to fill the bar for 500 or 1000 credits maximum if I remember correctly.
Haaaaaaaaaa inflation it's terrible this thing 😢 1200 is a lot for me and it takes some thought before starting to play 😦

The bar progress very slowly when you play. The major part of the progress is when you purchase discount cards... depending the amount (more the promo is high, less the bar progress).

I have spent about 180 crédits... the progress bar is about 1/7.
So about 1250 crédits to complet the progress bar (a little to mush IMHAO).
Without the 20% cash back to purchase crédit, I don't think spent this amount.

Hopefully with my strategy game, I add 21 new cards to my collection (about 8.6 crédit by card).

The first half of april, with Free Pack Game (completed 100% one time) and the other game: I have complete the progress bar twice... for only two gift cards (a pity). At least one of the two rewards should have been a joker (exemple: alternation between gift card and joker).

I'll be honest, i'm not a fan of these 'games' gambling/lottery for cards seems like a complete waste, really comes across as a bit of money grab tactic,

and not sharing the ratio adds to that aspect, it's for people to waste money in the hope they get some special card whilst ending up with either nothing or some cards they don't care for.

Accidently did one the other day/week and got a card that I imediately deactivated as trash, won't be doing that again.

Final note that old cards that look like junk on newer higher resolution monitors
also are basically a detractor and actually off set the discount that is shown.

Please keep in mind when these Cards were produced and also with the Equipment
at this Timeline. So no one can see the Future and no one knows how the rate will be on the 4K Clips
when the people sitting in front of 16K Monitors in the near Future 😛
Because we have already 8K Tv's.

Just to stay Fair for this kind of Shows and the Timeline of their production.
But they are Content within the iStripper Universe, and the technical progress will not stop.

Went through roughly 500 credits with no SEC to show for it via the slot machine. A couple wins of credits a singular free (that happened with a star and subpar cards).

It is what it is but it seems odds have been SERIOUSLY reduced from what I saw in the past. I was expecting to have spent around 300-400 credit maybe for the SEC bar to fill up. This goes back to my previous ask of wanting odds to be posted on these games and these games odds to be verified.

I will top up a singular additional time and if nothing changes likely call it quits for purchasing anything.

Final note that old cards that look like junk on newer higher resolution monitors also are basically a detractor and actually off set the discount that is shown.

I'll chime in, Making this post as a member
I tend to Agree with the Idea that if the TGIF event Progress bar Award is an SEC
Then the Alternative if you already have the SEC should be a Joker card.

If the Event didn't offer a SEC as an Award, then I can understand the Progress bar just being a Gift Card.
( And I'd then also expect the Progress bar to Fill more Quickly )

In an SEC event,
The award for having used 100's credits to fill up the bar should be of equivalent value to the SEC card.

I have no real issues with iStripper holding weekly TGIF events.
and Monthly SEC events.

These are Games of Choice,
Members are not ***** to play them.
but they also need to be Fun and Fair.

a Gift Card in exchange for a SEC is not an equivalent award for the 100's of credits required to fill the Progress bar.

Just my thoughts as a member.

Nothing further from Totem so obviously since February even less worth the time or credits on this promo.

The good thing is everyone of us can enjoy iStripper on it's own way.
Have a nice Weekend 👍

I may follow @wtprivate out the same door. Plenty of other greats sites without the gambling.You may want to read the Posting from @wtprivate again,
and trust me he will not go through the same Door as you want to go 😎

He understood my point exactly, @Stanston. I would be willing to pay a premium to get SECs (heck, even make them exclusively available for purchase to people on the Premium membership ... which I also have).

I have no real objection to the idea of "gambling" if you don't want to pay the associated price (which I would think should be not more than about 3-5 times the regular price, less your associated discount). Let people play the games if they want to.

Me, I find the games boring and repetitive. They are simply not fun. And they cost a lot of credits just to get the SEC.

I get how Totem wins in the short term, but if you read the forums you'll see that they are sowing the seeds of dissent within their most loyal customers with this BS.

Again, I will not be topping up my credits again, and I have decided to quit when I reach a certain point in my collection (which I won't be sharing). Once I have done that, I will be using only the shows I have purchased to that point.

The only way to win is not to play at all.

Terrible deal if you have a full collection. This one just did cost me a Joker... well, glass half full: I'd rather stare at a SEC than at a Joker.
