Fire Stampede: connection, endpoint and reward are three separate details
Many Connect & Collect icons are visible, but which reward has been reached? The number of icons is not the only question in Fire Stampede. A qualifying connection and special endpoint are required before reading whether cash, spins or other effects have been collected.

What is a special endpoint?
In official Fire Stampede description, there are special positions at the top and bottom of the third reel and the extra sixth reel. The qualifying adjacent Connect & Collect connection from the left to the special position carries the reward at the endpoint.
Paying combinations and connection features are separate. Don’t make the amount of Connect & Collect icons the only payout condition. Not all ordinary positions are special endpoints either. The actual relevant grid is needed, not the cropped symbol count.
Three fields in a connection note
Write separately: is the qualifying connection confirmed; which special endpoint was reached; what is the reward type and value? If the first field is not visible, the good reward chip on the side is not enough to prove that it has been collected.
| Record | Connection | Endpoint rewards | Conclusion |
|---|---|---|---|
| A | Cropped; unknown | 5 spins visible | Unconfirmed collection |
| B | Assumed confirmed qualifying path | 5 spins | Spin-count input |
| C | Assumed confirmed qualifying path | 3 award units | Separate value field |
We are not designing an actual playable path on the table. B and C are assumed confirmed to show the field distinction. Actual help is needed if it is not clear how to qualify a particular adjacency or direction in a frame.
Spins and award values are in different units
If 5 spins and 3 award units are separate confirmed records, they will not be included as 8 spins or 8 cash units. The unit is different. Note the spin adjustment and award adjustment in their respective columns, along with the event IDs to avoid duplication.
The extra Wild or respin label is also another effect. Don’t exchange every chip for money just because they are all in special reward positions. The short product page does not contain the valuation of each future outcome.
Maintain mode and event boundaries
It is described that Connect & Collect also works with the bonus. So include the base or free-spin mode and same round ID in the comparison. If the mode changes, don’t treat a spin-count change as lost cash.
For the actual disputed record, the full relevant grid, event before/after and reward-history label are required. The icon count or end total is not enough to reconstruct all the collected effects. When the path or endpoint is not confirmed, state that clearly in the note.
