8 APRIL NEW ZEALAND GAZETTE 929

Any

4.7.22 Prizes are awarded for symbols of a kind, mixed symbols or other patterns, in any position (on a
payline or scattered whichever is applicable). The wording best of any is not mandatory and
should not be used if coinciding wins are added.

Of a Kind

4.7.23 When a number of symbols share the same prize scale the wording “of a kind” is used to
indicate prizes are not awarded for mixed symbols. The wording “of a kind” is preferred to “of a
kind pays”, to avoid a possible misinterpretation of a prize with the numbers indicating the
winning pattern.

Mixed

or or mixed:

4.7.24 Any Mixture of the symbols X, Y, Z appearing on the payline (or scattered if the symbols are
scatters) and according to the specified paying pattern will win the indicated prize.

Coinciding Wins

Coinciding Wins are Added

4.7.25 Each symbol can be used only once when interpreting individual paying patterns except for
substitutes. If a winning pattern consists entirely of substituting symbols, then only the highest
prize is awarded unless qualified by additional game rules; i.e. the prize for the substituting
symbols, or the prize for the winning pattern with the substituted symbols, which ever is highest
(except scatters, see Scatters). Other special cases that do not behave according to the above
definition are clearly defined with additional wording.

Highest Win Only on Each Payline

or Highest win only
or Highest win only except scatters

4.7.26 Only the highest prize is awarded on each payline. If scatters are added, view these statements
in conjunction with an appropriate scatters statement.

Coinciding Wins on Different Paylines are Added

4.7.27 Wins occurring on each payline are added to the wins meter.

Each Symbol can participate Only Once in any Payline Win

4.7.28 When substitute symbols are used, to clarify the fact that the substitute symbol pays only in the
highest paying pattern, wording to this effect must be used. Also to avoid confusion when the
any paying pattern is used such wording is desirable.

Paylines

All Wins on Centre Payline except Scatters

or Centre line pays only: (viewed in conjunction with a scatters statement)
or All wins on centre line only: (viewed in conjunction with a scatters statement)

4.7.29 Scattered wins can appear on any line if occurring according to the specified winning pattern.
Other combinations are only paid on the selected lit line.

All Wins on Selected Lit Lines only: (viewed in conjunction with a scatters statement)

4.7.30 All wins (except scatters) paid only when the combination appears on a selected lit line.
