Here is my entry: 237x (rounded up by 0,4x) stake 0,4e, played on Royal Panda August 24 2020 at 16:33 (CET). Will update later today if I get a better one, yet hardly. Thanks to CG for warning of its high volatility.
I could not get the screenshot, because the autospins kept on spinning. Nevertheless, the history below shows the payout 95,44e, second from bottom.
For the possible raffle, feedback of the game as a review.
Firstly, breakdown of my activities with the game:
4 bonus buys (two sessions, choices split 50% between sticky and raining wilds). Returns: 3 times around 10x and one returned a handsome 20x. One triggered with 4 scatters, chose sticky wilds and still a 10x payout, cool! Yes, I have seen those big wins by streamers, however they fall into the category of buffed RNG during release of a new slot to reel in the "catch".
I did around 400 spins with stakes 0,4eur-0,8eur. Base game was not that special, a few 40x payouts nonetheless. Three bonuses triggered with the same 10-20x payouts.
Now, I cannot review the slot without comparing it to Danger! High voltage by BTG (DHV), owing to the fact that it is a clear rip-off with the only difference of being the megaways <tm> mechanic and bonus buys. This below has been made from the viewpoint of an average player keeping in mind the competitiveness of this slot
Very shortly, it is an awful game, especially regarding the payouts. Outside this promotion, I would not play it and never will, plus would not recommend it to even worst enemies (if I had any). I would choose DHV to play every time. This slot lacks competitiveness in every aspect to DHV.
Footnote: what can anyone expect from a group of people claiming hundreds of thousands times stake payouts in their slots that never have happened (esp. Peking luck). This group of people of course calls themselves Pragmatic Play (popularly known as Scamatic Play).
More broadly, below a few minuses and pluses in comparison to DHV and some other ways of gambling:
Pluses:
None, yet fluid graphics and sounds work mostly in sync, but this is taken as a standard.
Minuses:
Volatility way too high with megaways <tm> mechanic while average payouts are poor. For instance the premium symbol does not pay with two on first two reels.
DHV offers very high payouts in basegame (even with a low 95% RTP), this obviously lacks that element, or RTP has been only pushed into triggering the 117649 ways with multipliers. Even so, in more than 400 spins I did not trigger the max ways even once. Therefore a very poor performance with the megaways mechanic, Bonanza offers that element, not to mention Millionaire megaways.
Lacks cascades, which is the worst one. Due to this, the megaways mechanic does not offer anything exciting nor entertaining.
The biggest mistake of this slot is the bonus buy-feature that is simply buying a lottery ticket with a very low average return (10-20%). I would prefer buying lottery tickets with millions of times max wins that obviously the provider cannot match. With a bonus buy with a cost of 100x, I would expect more. In reality, the bonus buy should be 50-75x. Therefore bonus buys by even Nolimit City are more justified (e.g. Deadwood).
Simply it's the same crap and a rip-off than before, this provider goes back to my banlist for good. Nothing new, nothing innovative with low average payouts to an average player soon to be forgotten.

I will join the raffle I guess. Gave it a bit of a shot, but this game doesn’t like me!
226x Royalpanda (0,4€) 21aug 06.58
review:
The dog house megaways is probably the worst slot I’ve ever played. 99% of then time the base does nothing and the bonus does nothing. This slot doesn’t live up it’s RTP. Never been a huge pragmatic fan, because they never pay me. Graphics & music are fine, but all is so basic and boring. This is another bonus buy slot for streamers.

Here is my entry, 597x played on leovegas 15 minutes ago. (20.56 my local time).
I started to like the game more I played it. The volatility is definitely there an and first few bonuses where crap no matter which one i picked. I also had some 4 scatters starts, but in no avail. I like the original doghouse and megaways games in general, so it is no surprise this game suits for me pretty well. Don't mind the graphics and sounds either, they are kinda cool. Will probably give this one ago in future as well.

After dropping from the top 5 of leaderboard, I spent a small fortune on getting back on.
I might barely make it with this score: 820x Leovegas 26-08-2020 14:44h
The video shows I was a little bittilted impatient

Uhoh i guess it's my turn to drop out of top 5 next, what's the reasoning behind the competition being extended if i may ask? It's the second time it's happened now in recent competitions. I keep dropping down on the leaderboard when it happens 
It's kind of a bummer

Oh well then i've already dropped out at this point lol, 3 of the current top 5 came during the extended period, that's what makes it so frustrating though. I understand the terms are subject to change at any given time, doesn't make it less of a dissapointment when it costs you a decent chunk of money.

Leo Vegas, Wednesday 26/08/2020, 144x around 4.30pm.
A good game with a nice amount of megaways and random wilds keep it interesting.
