   per tick, without clearing your screen. Balls fall between pegs.
   Equal payouts share a letter: normally A B C D E F G H I H G F E D C B A.
   Rounded ties also share letters, so some risks use fewer than nine labels.
-  A single dim-white ruler of pocket letters prints once, at the board's
-  midpoint, marking the fixed pocket columns; the base repeats it in
-  brackets. Hints mark positions, not a prediction of the result.
+  Dim-gray pocket letters appear below the midpoint, without hiding balls
+  or pegs. The base repeats the letters in brackets; landing pockets light
+  up as >A< instead of [A]. Hints mark positions, not predicted results.
   The outside A pockets pay 16x on easy, 100x on medium, 1000x on hard
   and 10000x on expert.
   Multipliers INCLUDE your stake. Each outer pocket has a 1/65536 chance.
-  Higher difficulty has much higher variance. Upward payout rounding also
-  makes the actual expected return differ slightly between difficulties.
+  Higher difficulty has much higher variance, including zero-return pockets.
+  The one-line paytable shows the actual RTP for your selected difficulty.
+  Actual RTP never decreases as difficulty increases.
 
   A single ball is white. Overlapping balls become pink, then pure red
   when all released balls meet. Basic ANSI approximates these shades.
   Without color, overlaps show 2-9 or * for ten balls.
 
-  The room's configured BASE return defaults to 98% at every difficulty.
-  Interior multipliers adjust to that base, then round UP to the next 0.1x;
-  the outside prizes stay fixed. The displayed multipliers are what pays.
-  Rounding increases actual RTP (possibly above 100%); the menu shows the
-  actual return for your selected difficulty as well as the configured base.
+  The receipt after each drop itemizes the result by landed payout: one
+  row per distinct multiplier, with its staked amount and net (mirrored
+  pockets share a row). The board has no fixed background, so your
+  terminal theme shows through.
+
+  The room's configured target return defaults to 98% at every difficulty.
+  Interior multipliers are balanced in 0.1x steps to stay close to that
+  target; the outside prizes stay fixed. The displayed multipliers are
+  exactly what pays. Returns include your stake.
   Fractional batch winnings round randomly to adjacent whole credits,
   preserving the expected return even for one-credit bets.
