How SlotsJudge Upped Membership Past 10,000 With Their Referral System

Today, SlotsJudge celebrates a huge landmark – exceeding 10,000 registered users in record time. To think that SlotsJudge started fully in 2020, and just within a year, they have attracted all range of bettors; professionals and amateurs alike. This is because SlotsJudge has shown itself to be a hub of honest casino and slots reviews, the latest gaming news, and much more.

How Does the SlotsJudge Referral System Work?

SlotsJudge gives incentives to users for their activity on the site. One of the major incentives is the bonus on referrals. The referral system is a solid structure that has greatly increased the popularity of SlotsJudge. 

Here is how it works: whenever a registered user refers a friend to the platform, the user earns 30 SJ points and also earns points when the SJ points of the friend reach certain levels.

Users receive 50 SJ points upon registration and 25 points when they post comments or share a screenshot of their amazing wins. Users can also post their own casino-related articles on the website. Such an article can land as much as 500 SJ points if approved. 

These points can then be traded in the SJ shop for cash (which can be used to fund a casino bankroll or withdrawn directly to a Skrill account), free spins, and other goodies. There is also a VIP level system in which gamers rise through the ranks as their activity on the site increases. A higher VIP level gives access to better offers in the shop.

Eventually, all these have made SlotsJudge exceed the 10,000 membership mark and is also the potential trigger for greater achievements.

What is SlotsJudge?

SlotsJudge is touted to be the first interactive website about slot games and casinos. They don’t just give out casino-related information, they also allow players to share their own opinions on the latest games and even play demo versions of slot games on their website. SlotsJudge has therefore become a community where gamers can easily find the best casino and slot game recommendation that suits their level.

SlotsJudge initially took off in 2018 but couldn’t make a name until it was relaunched in 2020 by its team of professionals, Scanteam. Since then, the website has been making waves in the iGaming world, helping new and existing users to become profitable when spinning their favourite slots. 

Perhaps the juiciest aspect of SlotsJudge is their reward system. This has boosted the popularity of the website. SlotsJudge has also stood out for their honest and fair reviews of casinos and their offerings. Besides, they give room for users to be the judge themselves.

Also, SlotsJudge has exploited popular social media channels to create awareness of what their site has to offer to gamblers. Their YouTube channel has become a go-to spot for news and analysis of the latest slots and casino games. This has greatly helped gamers to discover the best casinos and casino games to play easily.

All in all, SlotsJudge is set to overshoot its current membership mark as it continues to dole out the great value in the gambling sphere.

Snail Mail Reschedules Tour Dates Due to Vocal Cord Surgery

Snail Mail‘s Lindsey Jordan has postponed a portion of her upcoming tour due to the immediate need for vocal cord surgery. The North American leg of the tour was set to commence this week, but has been rescheduled for summer 2022; details for her UK and European rescheduled dates have yet to be announced.

Jordan wrote in a statement:

Lindsey here – unfortunately, with terrible news this time. I’ve been struggling with my vocal health more and more each year. I lose my voice after a couple days of singing. I went to see an ENT last week and they found massive polyps in my vocal cords (surprisingly from vocal trauma due to talking!! shocker lol) that need to be operated on to prevent permanent damage to my voice. The recovery time is three months/speech therapy and in an effort to make sure the rest of the tour can happen, I will be postponing our first US tour which was supposed to begin this week as well as our initial UK/Euro tour :(. I’m devastated to be pushing off shows even longer.  My team is working overtime to reschedule everything that we’re postponing–we will have everything rescheduled imminently. Thank you so much for all the support you’ve given the new record so far.

Snail Mail released her second album, Valentineearlier this month.

Naima Bock Signs to Sub Pop, Shares New Single ’30 Degrees’

Based in South London and of Greek/Brazilian heritage, Naima Bock has announced her signing to Sub Pop and shared the new single ’30 Degrees’. Bock wrote the track and co-produced it with longtime collaborator Joel Burton. Check it out below.

“This song came out of the adolescent duality of fear and freedom and deals primarily with goodbyes,” Block explained in a statement. “The small ones, which feel so big, ‘some final word’ (goodbye to a long-term friendship) and the big ones, ‘the final sigh’ which can feel so small amidst the clutter of surviving day-to-day.”

Naima Bock’s debut full-length is slated for release in 2022. She’s set to play a handful of UK dates in the coming months, including support for Porridge Radio and The Goon Sax; you can find those dates below.

On this week’s list, we have the lead offering from Big Thief’s upcoming double album, ‘Time Escpaping’, which draws from the more kinetic and fragmented corners of the band’s sound to stunning effect; Chicago trio Horsegirl’s first release for Matador, ‘Billy’, a fuzzy, wonderfully constructed slice of indie rock; Adele’s ‘To Be Loved’, an extraordinary highlight from the singer’s new album; Earl Sweatshirt’s introspective new single ’2010’, which is less hazy but just as hypnotic as some of his past material; Thank You Thank You’s wondrously expansive and warmly reflective new track ‘Undiminished Life’; and Sweeping Promises’ driving, infectious ‘Pain Without a Touch’, the latest from the post-punk outfit that just announced their signing to Sub Pop.

Looking For New Online Games To Play? Here Are Some Fun Ideas

There are many reasons people enjoy playing games, but the most popular ones are to have fun and socialize. Gaming has become a huge industry with online gaming sites where you can play for free or spend money on premium items. You can find all sorts of games for different interests, from action-packed first-person shooters to strategy games that require deep thinking. With so many choices, there’s something for everyone!

You don’t need any special skills to start playing online games – just a computer or tablet and an internet connection. And because this is an activity that can be done all day long, you don’t have to worry about getting bored or running out of things to do. You can join in with people from all over the world and play with your friends or go solo on some intense challenges. Here are some fun ideas:

Find an Online Game That Interests You

The first step to playing games online is of course to find one that interests you. There are many online games out there, each with its own fun activities and other things to do. Some could be potentially dangerous while others are more family-friendly. 

When you begin looking for an online game to play, start by searching for something that interests you specifically. For example, if you like comic books or superheroes in general, try finding an online game where you can play as a superhero. If you like playing strategy games, find one such as Risk or Monopoly to help pass the time.

Once you’ve found an online game that interests you, it’s time to start looking around for more options! Just go back to the same website and look for something else so you won’t get too bored. This is a great way to play games online and will keep you occupied for hours.

Place Bets If You’re Up For It

Another way to make things more entertaining is by placing bets with other people who are playing. William Hill free bet is a sportsbook to consider for UK residents offering a varied selection of games to choose from. You can also do this in the chat section if you like, but it’s probably best to do it in person or through private messaging. This could potentially be dangerous because some people might not take betting seriously and will try taking your money. So just keep this in mind when participating in something like this.

If you do decide to take part, make sure you’re betting with people who are nice and won’t try anything funny. For most people, the chat section will be a bit too wild, but that’s okay because there are other things you can do to have fun playing games online. Check out the different websites for something else you like and you’ll be fine.

Check The Chat Section For Some Laughs

Another way to have fun playing online games is by checking the chat section. This isn’t for everyone, but it can be very entertaining if you know what you’re doing. People go on here with all sorts of backgrounds and start chatting with each other whether or not they know their personalities. You could join in with them if you like taunting people or meeting new people, but if you’re a bit shy, it’s best to not go in here at all.

If you decide to stay out of the chat section, that’s fine too. There are other ways to have fun when playing games online so just look around for something else. Again, you don’t want to get bored by sticking with just one game or website. From the chat section, you could organize tournaments you could play with people from different countries.

There are many people in the chat section who would be happy to team up with you, but unfortunately, not everyone is kind. So don’t be surprised if someone tries to seriously harm your game by cheating or doing anything they can to ruin it for you. Of course, you may not know everyone and some people can be very rude, but if you stick with it, these things could make the experience of online games more fun and entertaining.

Play With People At Your Level

Playing with people at your level is also something you can do. Just find an online game that requires everyone to be of the same level (similar to a tournament) and join in on it. You’ll have fun challenging others who are around your skill level without having totally unfair fights. There are some games where the higher your level, the stronger you’ll be, but for a lot of them, it doesn’t matter.

However, if there is a difference in levels and someone tries to take advantage of this by spamming or hacking, just leave that game and try another one.  If you win, it’ll feel like a real accomplishment and if you lose, it won’t be too hard to get back on track. As long as you’re playing with people at your specific level, everything should turn out okay and you’ll have a good time.

Take A Look At More Unique Games

Finally, if you want to play games online that aren’t as popular or well known, make sure to take a look around the website you’re using. There might be something you missed the first time you looked around, so take a good look and see what else is out there. There are some games that may not be very known, but you’ll find out they’re just as fun and entertaining as the ones everyone else is playing.

And a lot of times, these games will require more skill to play so if you want a challenge, this might be a good idea. You can find some really fun things if you just look hard enough. There may be something else you haven’t heard of yet that might interest you.

If you follow these steps, it’ll be very easy to have a great time playing games online. Just remember to keep an open mind and not get too bored with just one thing because there are plenty of other entertaining things to do. When you play online games, you can look around for new ways to have fun and make the experience more rewarding.

Pusha T and Mako Share New Song ‘Misfit Toys’

0

Pusha T has shared a new song called ‘Misfit Toys’, a collaboration with EDM singer/producer musician Mako. It appears on the soundtrack to Arcane, the new Netflix series based on the League of Legends video game. Give it a listen below.

“I remember the moment we connected and heard Pusha T’s first pass, everything felt like lift off,” Mako said in a statement. “He came at it with such authenticity and passion and energy. After that first clip, I caught him using this word, ‘misfits,’ and it immediately clicked for us to lean into that type of ‘misfit toy’ energy that [Arcane characters] Ekko and the Firelights represent.”

Watch Saweetie Debut New Song ‘Icy Chain’ on ‘SNL’

Saweetie was the musical guest on last night’s episode of Saturday Night Live, making her debut appearance on the comedy sketch show.

Saweetie shared ‘Icy Chain’ earlier this week, following previous outings ‘Faking Love’ (with Anitta), ‘Best Friend’, ‘Slow Clap’ (with Gwen Stefani), and ‘Fast (Motion)’. Pretty Bitch Music was originally expected to arrive in the summer, but was delayed after Saweetie decided to make some changes. The LP is now set for release in early 2022.

Local Natives released their most recent album, Violet Street, in 2019. Last year, they collaborated with Sharon Van Etten on the track ‘Lemon’.

Watch Dry Cleaning Perform ‘Scratchcard Lanyard’ on ‘Fallon’

Thank You Thank You Share New Songs ‘Undiminished Life’ and ‘Look Alive’

0

Thank You Thank You, the project of Tyler Bussey (of Strange Ranger, Self Defense Family, and formerly The World Is a Beautiful Place And I Am No Longer Afraid to Die), has shared two new songs. ‘Undiminished Life’ and ‘Look Alive’ feature contributions from Bussey’s former TWIABP bandmates Katie Dvorak and Chris Teti, Jodi’s Nick Levine, Nina Keith, Really From’s Matt Hull, and Blue Ranger’s Evan Marré. Listen to the tracks below.

“It’s crazy how long I’ve worked on this song, because my voice doesn’t even sound like that anymore,” Bussey said of ‘Undiminished Life’ in a statement. “When I wrote this song about growing up and reckoning with all that’s lost and all that’s gained as time passes and things change, I had no idea that the recording process would take so long or so completely mirror that theme.”

Thank You Thank You released the NEXT TO NOTHING EP earlier this year via Oof Records. Read our Artist Spotlight interview with Thank You Thank You.
