I never got anything for my 400th win. But I did get 8,000 credits for my 500th.

I'm noticed another way people obtain an inordinately high number of wins. They have a mule that they bring into the game room and they use that mule to "challenge" the player they are currently up against. If they are playing against somebody that is a bit of a fool, that player will accept the challenge from the mule and be put into a different game, thus giving the mule's owner the win. This happened to me and then I noticed that the mule that challeneged me followed the player into every single room but never said a word. Suspicious, no?

Other high players will not bother playing somebody that has a significant number of wins. They'll simply quit and find some inexperienced player.

Well, it sounds like the payout will continue to rise every hundred wins, or so. However, even if they give 10K for win number x, it still won't be worth it. It's my opinion that they need to give a payout every ten wins to make it worth it - assuming that payout is at least a few thousand credits.

It takes so long to win 100 games, much longer than getting that same payout in one of the other mini-games...

While I agree VMK should give you a little something for your time for each win (say 50 credits each time with a 100 credit bonus each 10, plus the big milestone payouts listed in post 1 - something like that...) Maybe people play Checkers because they find it fun... not necessarily as a Best Way to Make Credits? Just a thought.

Of course, I've only won one game (and my pin doesn't show the win), so what do I know. lol

How confident are you on that 500 being 8000? Dream.Finder said he only got 6000 for 1,000th win. So I kind of figured it maxed out at 6k.

Boy I wish the credits were worth playing. I really enjoy the game, but can't bring myself to play anymore. Perhaps when we don't have anything big released for a month I'll feel safe to play...

I reached 500 yesterday and got 8000 credits so that is correct.

I wonder why they cut back the prize amounts for higher numbers?!?! @_@ odd.

Because it's VMK. I'll update the first post.

Could it be that players would use clones or friends to rack up wins by quitting the game meaning they would be High Scorers and make a ton of credits? In the first few days some players had win amounts in which I don't see how they could have gotten without doing this. The rooms were always too packed
