About Me

My name is Blair. I’m a native UK citizen. My job is to sell cars. On my blog I write about casino games in my spare time: how they work, where they came from and what to check before you play. If you need some help or want to read some interesting stuff, you’re at the right place.

01What you’ll find here

02How the casino articles are written

The casino desk sticks to things a reader can check for themselves: how a game works, what the rules say, how a site handles sign-up and withdrawals, and the odd story from gambling history. Reviews of individual operators are not the point here, and nothing on the site ranks casinos by bonus size.

Before an article goes up, the facts in it are checked against the source that owns them. For a slot that means the provider’s own game information and help screen, which list the paylines, features and the published return to player. For a rule or a law it means the official text, and for a historical story the earliest reliable account that can be found. Where two sources disagree, the article says so instead of picking the more exciting version.

The older posts on the blog keep their original wording, apart from fixes to things that were plainly wrong or out of date.

03Where the site stands on gambling

Casino games are entertainment that costs money. That is the line every article starts from.

• 18+ only. The casino articles are written for adults of legal gambling age in the UK.
• No promises. You will not find a system, a “sure thing” or a guaranteed win here, because the house edge does not go away when someone writes a clever headline.
• Budget first. When an article talks about playing, it assumes a spending limit set in advance and money you can afford to lose.

If you think your own gambling has stopped being fun, the responsible gambling page lists free and confidential UK support, including the National Gambling Helpline and GAMSTOP self-exclusion.

04The OutGames history pages

The site also covers the history of the World OutGames, 2006–2017.

The World OutGames section records the four editions held between 2006 and 2017: Montréal, Copenhagen, Antwerp and Miami. It reports what happened at each one, and the casino articles and their links stay in their own section.

Figures such as participant numbers are given as they were reported at the time, and where reports differ the page says so. You can read the full section starting from the OutGames History front page.

05Corrections

Mistakes get fixed. If you spot a wrong date, an outdated rule or a game feature that has changed, write to the address on the contact page with the page address and what you think is wrong. A source helps a lot.

Small errors such as a typo or a broken sentence are corrected quietly. A change to a fact that a reader may have relied on, for example a payout figure or the year of an event, is corrected in the text and the page’s updated date changes with it. Former organisers or participants of the World OutGames who see something inaccurate in the history pages can use the same address, and so can anyone holding photographs or programmes that would fill a gap.
