Is Stake's weekly leaderboard tournament worth grinding from Canada?
Grinding the Stake weekly leaderboard from Canada here and honestly the wagering contribution stuff is driving me nuts 😤 like do bonus buys count, do lower RTP games count more, nobody says?? Hit big last night on my all-time favourite and I still got zero clue how much it moved me up the board lol. Anyone actually figured out which games contribute? Ah well 🔥🎰

✓Same boat here Cash24, hit a decent run last week and the board position didn't seem to reflect the wagering I put through. I've been grinding it assuming bonus buys count same as regular spins but that's pure guesswork on my part. Anyone here actually had support confirm which games contribute more? Would save a lot of dead volume 💸Bonus taken, wagering cleared.

Ran that leaderboard grind a couple winters back myself, and yeah the contribution rules were just as foggy then. Bonus buys moving the board slower than regular spins wouldn't shock me, most promos quietly weight stuff that way, but Stake never spells it out. Ah well, we grind on 😄 maybe someone who asked support directly will chime in with what they were told.I remember the old slots first-hand.

Dumb question maybe 😅 but what does "contribution" actually mean here, like a slot only counts a fraction of the wagering toward the board? Cheers, that helps if someone can explain 🙏

No dumb question at all, TimsRun, I've turned C$50 into a few grand back when the old slots hit different, and even I had to learn this one the slow way 😉 contribution just means how much of your wagering actually counts toward the board, so a C$1 spin might count fully on one game but only a fraction on another, and bonus buys often count less or not at all. The catch with Stake's weekly leaderboard is they don't publish the weights clearly, so guys like Cash24 are spinning blind.Busted more than you've deposited 😉

This whole thread is a relief honestly 😅 I'm still learning bonuses and I assumed my leaderboard progress was just my spins being slow, turns out I might've been playing games that barely count. If anyone figures out whether bonus buys count toward the wagering on the board, please tag me, I'll owe you one 🙏 Thanks Gates_GG and NeverStopSpinningOrBust for the breakdown btw.Asking dumb bonus questions — that's the job.

Ran my own grind on that leaderboard last month and same fog 🎰 I was bonus buying on a higher volatility slot thinking it'd fly up the board, progress felt slower than flat spinning on something low RTP. If any of you figure out which games actually count full, post it — that alone changes the whole bankroll plan for the week.500x one day, zero the next. Classic.

RoyalZone that matches what I noticed too 😅 I was grinding bonus buys on a volatile slot and the board barely moved, then switched to flat spinning and it felt way more steady. Only caveat from a total noob like me: I still can't tell if bonus buys even count at all, or just count less 🤔 anyone actually confirmed that somewhere?Learning to clear wagering, go easy 🙏
-
Yeah bonus buys have been my thing on there too and honestly the leaderboard counts them weird, felt like flat spins moved me up way faster 🎰 😅 keeps me on it every evening anyway, the grind pays when it pays, ah well 🔥

@Josh_Win1993 same thing happened to me with my welcome bonus wagering, flat spins cleared way faster than I expected and bonus buys barely moved the bar 😅 I'm still figuring this Stake leaderboard out honestly. Does the promo page actually say which games count full, or do you just learn by trial and error?Learn something new about casinos every day.

I'm on it every evening anyway lol, worth it for the vibes alone 🔰🎰💰Spinning reels dawn to dusk.

It just goes to show you that even the steady climb of flat spins can get you where you want to be, right? I hit big last night and the energy was insane on the leaderboard, totally wild! Gonna keep at it every evening regardless of how the payout looks, ah well 🔥💰🎰One slot, one love 🎰

YYZDad you're spot on, the welcome bonus wagering and the leaderboard are two different animals entirely. Flat spins counted cheap and fast for me back when I grinded it, bonus buys ate the C$ and barely ticked the bar. Worth it for the vibes, sure, but don't expect the board to pay your rent eh 😄Been grinding longer than some have played.

I only just cleared my welcome bonus wagering so grinding the board on top sounds rough 😅 do flat spins count if I'm playing with bonus funds or real money only?Asking dumb bonus questions — that's the job.

Gonna keep at it every evening r…Seriously @YYC87, that energy is legit, like the biggest winning streak ever... hahahaha. I just love seeing that steady grind pay off because the whole leaderboard thing is always incredible and feels like a huge win ngl!! 🤩🎰🔥Spinning reels dawn to dusk.
