Some daily and weekly tasks seem wrong
If the idea of the daily and weekly tasks is to make users come back to the game often to get free chips, then some of the tasks are just bad. Some are easy and those ones are fine as you don't need to spend chips (like doing emotes or dancing, etc) . Others like "double down on 10/11 in blackjack", "play 5 rounds of keno" will almost certainly make you actually lose chips. Weekly ones like "win with 0 or 00 in roulette", "make 500 RP in keno" will make you lose a ton of chips and are just not worth completing for the relatively small prize at the end.

I think the double down on an 11 for a daily task is extremely irritating, especially since everyone flocks to the blackjack tables, which makes the task painfully slow. Or any other blackjack task, really. A lot of the daily tasks are quick and easy to do. Takes a minute max, but I find myself at a blackjack table for at least an hour before I finish a daily task.
I have to agree with this simply because if the purpose of these is for players to make some chips. Today I lost over 20k trying to complete the 250 RP in Keno and I gave up since the reward is just a fraction of what I would get. I also gave up on the splitting aces and 500 RP in video blackjack after trying all week and losing chips. Casual players have no chance completing those when everything is in favor of the casino.
Coincidentally, I have noticed that the pay outs on the slot machines have been drastically lowered. I am getting barely any chips for hands that used to pay out 50k-60k.
I have been completely ignoring the weekly tasks for a while now... as I ALWAYS end up spending way more chips than I earn so what's the point?

Some of the tasks are definitely harder than others. We'd like to add more tasks, so if you have an suggestions, please post them here.
Note that for "win with 0 or 00 in roulette" any bet will satisfy the criteria for the task as long as you make a profit. I usually split a bet on both 0 and 00 for 100 chips, then I spread 500 chips around the board in whatever combination I like. Alternatively, you could bet 100 split on 0 and 00, then bet 500 on red or black if you prefer the even money bets. I do not recommend max betting on any single number, but that's just my play style.
For 5 rounds of keno, if you're betting 100 and you get 4 numbers on 2 out of the 5 rounds, you'll be up 100 chips if you add the 200 you get for the task.
Many Bothans died to bring us this information.
