And yes, the Cloud City mode that gives you those free spins is pretty exciting. And you have to play max lines at least (which I do, but not always max bet and max lines) in order to get those bonuses. Of course, in the 20 mins, did the drink girls come around and refill your adult beverage? <abbr><em>martymankins´s last blog post..<a href="http://www.banalleakage.com/2009/04/12/snowy-sunday-17-the-season-ending-episode/" rel="nofollow">Snowy Sunday #17 - The Season Ending Episode</a></abbr></em> Wow. $800 from all those free spins is great.

I can't believe I forgot you blogged about it! That's my memory for you. When I saw the slot machine in Reno it was an honest surprise, and I was sure I had never heard of such a thing. But you had given the tip ahead of time and I forgot. One of my best spins on Star Wars was when I got Cloud City free spins - you keep spinning until both Han Solo and Lando show up anywhere. When they show up, it "freezes" (heh heh) the column where Han is and makes all the spots on that column a wildcard. You can imagine the wins you get when the first of 5 columns is completely wildcarded and you're playing 30 lines (I was playing max lines / max amount) So what happens? I'm given 8 free spins. 4 of them go by and I make about $100 with the wild cards. With 4 left, I hit ANOTHER Han Solo/Lando combination, and it makes the SECOND COLUMN a wild card also! HOLY COW. moneymoneymoney! I go from about $50 in the machine to $800 with all those lines. I literally was just sitting there for about 20 minutes as I watched the machine self-spin and spit out money (when doing the free spins, it spins for you).
