hey tony, thought maybe you missed this reply from @chiefmappster:
"Because the games take a lot of manual effort and time to pay out each single one. It was hundreds of transactions. So until an automated bot can handle the payouts we thought i would be better for all involved this way. That way instead of just .30 SBD you will get like 5 or how much you win and it saves the people who create the @spl a lot fo time in the process.
Understand buddy?"
So basically, yeah, you wait. Like the Chief said, it's all done manually and I can only imagine (with horror!) at how long that must take.
Also, hopefully you know about
