Moral question

[levartemit]

I found an unchipped Hi Lo watha the other day......the only problem is that the landlord of the pub was my uncle! Did I empty it.....yes i did, but the question is, who would have done the same and who thinks I am a louse for doing my uncles machine in (someone noticed, and lo and behold the machine was gone the next day )

[big_bad_dan]

hmm, id of probably of done it but bought him a drink if i made more than 20 quid

[stew]

nothing wrong with it, if you hadn't done it, someone else would have.

Keep it in the family

Play reverse 'psychology' - tell your uncle you use this site that tells you how to play machines - and you'll 'vet' them to see if they are any good - for a few free pints !

Then if you find a 'skunk' - tell him .......you both with have saved a few quid !

<Everybody happy!>

Well if it was my uncle I'd go halves on the profit,I certainly wouldn't be doing anything underhand to a member of my own family.

[big_bad_dan]

yeh me neither but empting a machine isnt underhand, id go with what andyz was saying

[levartemit]

The money in the hopper isnt technically my uncs cos it gets transferred from one machine to the next. when you use an emptier, ur generally ripping all the other punters! Hva eto admit it was good to see that shit of a machine on its knees for once lol

[dev001]

If you emptier a machine using a trick where the money doesn't register out of it, then yes, you are ripping off your uncle. The money in the hopper will usually be his because Ammusment Companies are not allowed to do "profit shares" on AWP equipement, unlike on other stuff like Pool Tables etc. So he will normally be renting it on a weekly basis or owns it in it entirety. In either case, the float is likely to be his.

If you were using the BFG super hold method to say, empty a Snake Rattle & Roll machine, then you would be ripping off other punters instead as opposed to your Uncle because aparently the win still registers out of the machine, this affecting its percentage to pay out to other players, not what it will collect for your Uncle.

Regarding the moral question, I think that is something you'll have to answer for yourself.

[levartemit]

Well I believe the hi lo watha emptier still registered the win but was powerless to stop you taking it, like the super hold method.

Ah,butr a really dead SRR could cost £50 to get the first superhold feature,whereas HLW/RF is only ever going to cost a £ or 2 if you have your 20ps ready.
