		<description>I&#039;ve conducted extensive research on these so called wagering &quot;games&quot; in sl and can conclude, they display signs of rigging. No Devil, Zyngo et al all operate via an external RNG/Database. Which, neither the RNG or games are audited for game fairness.

In the last  8 months (since December 2013), these games, spread across mutliple gaming sims have become exceedingly dodgy. It&#039;s not uncommon these days to have 6 or more consectitive rounds which not only do not give any matching numbers but give back to back identical numbers already drawn.

The probibility of this ocuring is extremely high. But to have it repeatidly happen on game after game, is another sure sign these game outcomes are being manipulated.</description>

		<description>Linden Lab keeps binding in on this gambling machine. The creator of the slotmachine sent out this message:

&quot;Due to a policy change at Linden Lab, several game features have been disallowed.  Two of those game features can be found in Zyngo, auto-play and the manner in which the Devil takes scores.  The Linden Governance Team was kind enough to discuss the issues with the game developers and in compliance with the new rules, the following changes have been made to Zyngo starting with Version 7.

[At the moment, the games are marked version 6.94 and are available for play.  The change will soon apply to all Zyngo games in SL.]

1) Auto-play is disabled for all Zyngo games that involve a wager.
2) A square highlight feature has been added that shows available plays.  This is disabled for any games involving a wager.
3) The devil no longer removes points from your existing score.
4) There is a small increase in the number of devils, but they only change the scores for the current round.  You can advance to the next round if you find the devil penalty contrary to your current strategy for a high score.  The first time the devil appears, scores are 1/2 for that round.  The next time he appears, scores are 1/3, then 1/4, and so on.
5) There is a slight increase in the chance for blue and green jokers.
6) If you mark off a number on the board, that number will no longer be selected.  This reduces the number of ineffective rounds.
7) Because of those other changes which help the players, the number of rounds has been reduced to 18.

You should be able to spot the latest versions of the games because the last round will typically be stopped at 18, not 20.

I wish you all the best with your game playing!

AZ&quot;


And it is not over yet. In our next steps, Zyngo will only be allowed to exist as a freeplay device.</description>
