1. What factors contribute
to the sustained popularity of slots, such as privacy,
brevity, and attractive design, even though players are
not aware of the machines' configurations?
2. How does the
non-transparency regarding slot machine configuration
(such as the number of stops of the reels or the
distribution of the symbols) fundamentally differ from
the transparency provided in other games of chance, like
knowing the numbers on a roulette wheel or the
composition of decks in blackjack?
3. Why is the secrecy of
these documents by game producers argued to be without
rational justification, based on the author's initial
claims?
4. If the parametric
configuration were exposed, would this information be
practically useful for the average slot player, or would
they still require "qualified persons" to deliver the
final probability results?
