MSS Scratch Cards

Sounds like Main Street Station is thinking about stopping the
scratch card program. At a recent locals' appreciation dinner a
survey was conducted. One of the questions mentioned doing away
with the scratch cards at the same time they start giving cash
back as free play right at the machines.

Personally, it is nice to get something extra for fours-of-a-kind
but it can be a pain waiting for an attendant to get the scratch
card. Usually get 2 or 3 per hour averaging about $2.50 each if
playing 25c or higher. If MSS is going to be more generous with
cashback when they go to free play, I won't miss the scratch
cards.

If MSS is going to be more generous with
cashback when they go to free play, I won't miss the scratch
cards.

For some reason I doubt that will happen

I think you should get a scratcher for every 533 games per the
average. If they average $2.50 that's a .377% add-on. It's been a
long time since I played there but I think I remember mine averaging
around 3$ which would be around .45%. If they go to free play I
doubt seriously that it will be anywhere close to those numbers.
