Just a trivia post. Has anyone ever been cheated by software flaws on machines? I had a 7 quid lower than a 12 for JP on Ceasers, got another 12 and died! Also a snakes and ladders (JPM again) years ago, got the new 15 jp (woo), and the machine crashed when it went into the jp reel roll etc. Got paid that time. The ceasers one is well known I think, but are there any other more obscure ones? I also had a JPM (flashing star for super feature, cant remember its name) lower than an 11 with extra life from 10 to 15, and the machine locked for 15 minutes when i went lower! I went to the barman, he saw the 10 on the line, was gonna call the engineer up, then it suddenly came to life, lower than 11 a 12 bye extra life, but then lower than 12 for 15 quid, onto a 10, never risked it, just took the 15 and ran. Any other experiences? Seems JPM is (was) especially susceptable to this.
Yeah on an old £6 token Andy Capp, i was on trail 5 (one more man on the winline then board) it gave me nudges so i nudged in my 60p with a man on one of the bars, i won the high/low, exchanged,then i got 3 or 4 squares from the end, it then gave me a 12 but instead of taking me to the jp it kicked me off the board and gave me another one from the full trail.
Couldnt believe it.
Duff Beer For Me, Duff Beer For You
Last Sunday....WItherspoons, manchester....Note Changer....Booked_moss Pissed up on a lads weekend to Liverpool....£20 note stuck, me being pissed thought "ah fuck it" and moved onto the next pub with the lads.
The thing that pisses me off the most is sticking buttons, totally out of your hands
Nudging thru wins/setups etc
Red arrow has an annoying flaw where it can give you boost off the bonus when you are at £15 and boost past the red streak back down to 50p. This has happened me a few times.
never been stitched up by a machine but collecting wins can result in a 'mysteriously vanished' pound when they fall out
Never cheat on Lady Luck, if she leaves you its hard to get her back

playing on dolden dragon today and it gave me 3 nudes got my bonus using 1 nudge gave me 1 step so automactic board had two nudges left used them to bring in the number 5 so i shpould of had 6 steps but my two quid was on the line too and just gave me that . when it should of gave me both! very pissed off after a couple of quid after this the stupid alarm went off during a board which i was on £5 with 3 steps told "fat pat"(pedrecker knows) and she gave me fuck all sorties.
was playing a £25 simpsons once, i got JP after about a £10 and as the reels was rolling round and lights flashing the machine turned off and nothing was in the bank.
well annoyed i told the barmanager and he said there was nothing he could do apart from call out an engineer, but what could that silly fu*ker do because it wouldnt have regestered!!!!
Now i wanted revenge so i played it again and it cost me another £25 for JP which did click in the bank, so from a profit of £15 to a loss of a tenner! NICE.
Bast%rd machine......
Okey Dokey, Roll em
I sympathise there m8, I have lost count of the the number of times I have heard the 'call the engineer' line, knowing I wont get anything. Half the engineers in my area dont have a clue anyway. I was forcing a wildfire, unsure if it was chipped or not. 50 quid later finally toppled it and it DID streak, woo hoo I thought. Got to 75, needed some coins, so collected, and the fucker ran empty at 44 owed! Fortunately I know the guy behind the bar, he witnesses it so i do get the cash, but had to miss the rest of the streak grrrrr!! but when the engineer came in he told the barman....yea the TUBES (not hopper) gets jammed because of the weight of pound coins in it! I am like what??? lol They are designed for 125 mate. Then he didnt know how to refill it....hmm refill key? and called someone else out to refill the bugger. DO these engineers have to pass any sort of test, does anyone know??
