I went to the cash out game, it's a matching game like concentration.
You pay 1 L$ to play, and you get a free Z$ for trying. You have 2 minutes to complete a 4x4 game of concentration. You'd have to be really really slow or bad at it to lose. If you lose the match game, you don't lose and Z$. So you can play as many times as you need to until you cash out successfully. There is nothing at-risk in the game of skill.
Makes me wonder if the Chat Log is only refering to the Game of Skill being legal.

Not the combined system of machines ..

as Aodhan mentioned


Its like

The Game of Skill is legal.

And its legal to gamble as long as there is no payout

But together ..


Hmm Is it possible the Lindens didn't even follow the process?
