The Wheel of Bargains & the Progressive Redraw both look like a great way to save on cards (now that there are plenty in the store for me to choose from again). Thank you, Totem for adding a sane way to save on cards where each spin is only one credit. Please, please, PLEASE run these events frequently i their exact same format.
What about SEC cards & Jokers though? I'm certain they'll never appear in one of these games as they are now, but would it be possibly to narrow the selection of possible SECs down to 3 or 4 with a Joker added for one credit spins to select the possible cards so that a person would be gambling for in the gambling events? That way the player could set his own limit on how much he was willing to lose on the cards he wanted to gamble for, and if he didn't get the one he was trying for on, let's on a say a 10 token spin, some random cards could be added to the drawn cards and the player would have the option to buy at the regular price, minus the ten credits spent on the spin.
That way the player would have spent however many one credit spins until the SEC he wanted or a Joker appeared in the special pool, plus the ten credits for the spin, plus the price differential. This way, Totem would make an increased profit on every card the player purchases from the game, and once a player reaches his gambling ceiling, at least he'd have something to show for it. And the player having a chance to win the ten credits back (or more) on each ten credit spin would sweeten ther deal. If there other unpurchased cards in his store, at least every spin would only be a few token loss if he was looking to build his collection back AND possibly add his deired SEC or Joker. I remember how some of the customer base here was saying they'd come out ahead in credits, or end up paying less for the SECs than they would have for a normal card after all was said and done. I suppose that doesn't apply to the full collection guys who have been Totem's longest and most loyal players. It seemed like the joke was on us, and that's why I actually debated within mysel before reinstalling the software after returning from computer issues.
My love of Lucie T and some of the other girls drove me back. Bummer that her bonus stuff and application images are gone now, :( Anyway, It's good to see that there are still great ways to cheaply build my collection back to full if I so decide, though I doubt I'll do that now since the gambling options always seem to favor the guys who do not have full collections. TBH, that was one of the things that had actually soured me to iStripper in the past when I was one of the "collectors" trying to get all of the cards to keep a full collection. It seems to me that depriving collectors of certain cards is a ***** thing to do. But I guess feeding off our vices is too profitable for Totem, because apparently they were unable to make enough money begore introducing gambling (even though I saW Rex bragging on one of the industry blogs that he was bigger than Husltler in terms of annual profit, long before the hooked collector's lust for new cards was an incentive to add gambling. It seemed identical to me to what ***** dealers do... but that's just me. The odds of winning a SEC really need to be published, but I guess France's gambling laws govern how that works.
Anyway, end of rant, but I truly am grateful that building my collection back for much more cheaply than what I paid in the past (minus new cards and SECs) are an option again. But, knowing my love of collecting stuff, and not just porn and vghd cards, I know it might become too obsessive if I did that.

TL/DR? Just a word of thanks for the new ways (to me) to get cards cheaply, as well as an idea for gambling where the player could narrow his pool of SECs and still have a way to buy cards at an elevated cost (a consolation prize). plus my rant which I couldn't resist. Anyway, I'm sure my grievances have been hashed/rehashed in my *****, so I made a way to bitch along with all of the other unhappy customers and disillusioned long time full collection whales who are the biggest losers in these gambling games.
