For those of you online slots players that don't just
play slots online, this will interest you. Unanimously, the Nevada Gaming
Commission voted in favor of a succession of innovative gaming policies
permitting slot machine manufacturers to ship devices out of state to places
that can legally have gaming and permit slot machines in liquor stores,
basically hastening the process for amending surveillance systems.
The new regulations faced no real opposition and became
effective immediately. The new policies were previously argued and discussed
at previous hearings held by the NCG and the state Gaming Control Board.
Casinos along with the manufactures have been anxious
because technological changes in surveillance systems change all the time,
meaning they need to speed -up reaction time quicker - in order to keep-up
with the latest available technology.
One new policy tackles the approval of surveillance
measures for unrestricted license holders. Only the actual process in which
the measures are put into action change, not the measures themselves.
Before, a measure that received no conflict was
fast-tracked through the system in approximately 20 weeks, now due to the
changes, this process will only take about eight weeks.
