Some of you have already noticed a change we've made to our Recent Winners pages with the addition of coin icons to the left of each winner's Gamesville member name. We've created this fun color-coded system to denote whether a winner is a free member or a GV Gold subscriber at the time of their win.

Taking a quick look at the Recent Winners lists you can see while it still pays to go gold and treat yourself to an ad-free gaming environment, it will ultimately not effect your chances of winning a jackpot here on the site.

Introducing the enhanced GV Rewards badges!

We've been teasing you all with several, special surprises later on this summer and today the first of them has finally arrived. Without further ado we're happy to announce the new, enhanced GV Rewards badges!

The same great style you've come to love, enhanced with expanded, original Gamesville artwork featuring the smaller sized badges each making a cameo in a scene with our good friend Poke the Penguin.

The new badges are available on your GV profile under the "badges" tab. Once there you can select which badge you'd like to display on your profile and in-game by selecting "See My Badges". Collect more GV Rewards to uncover new badges to display and show off to friends. Each badge can also be downloaded in "Full Size" to be used as a desktop wallpaper for your PC!

We hope you enjoy this enhancement to the GV Rewards badges! Please let us know your thoughts about the new and improved badges here in the comments section.

A big congratulations to lucky Gamesviller Auzzi44, a longtime Gamesviller from Wyano, PA, who scored a BIG WIN over the weekend in CatchUp CoverAll and took home $898 in cold, hard cash! And that's not all, because when Auzzi44 hit the jackpot, four players with the same Lucky Ball choice each won $25 cash! Congratulations to all four of out Lucky Ball winners: Warreniwamoto, Charmaewi, Tuddey2 and Peekabusweetie.
