Time for me to post something, 3 years and 5 months after I last posted anything.

There we go, done.

Looking forward to my next post in December 2019!

I've been told in one Spoons that it's not OK to continue playing machines when my glass is empty, which prompted me to take the moral high ground and remind that particular manager that he shouldn't be encouraging people to get drunk - I now just drink my pint very slowly and leave the last quarter...

The resulting board after that IM message cost me a good £8 I seem to remember - so that's much of the JP re-couped straight away!

'Noel to keel over and die within next 6 games on £1 stake' would also be a good message.

Trouble is, you'd then be hoping it doesn't flicker first board. Otherwise you'll be collecting a hell of a lot more out than necessary!

Had board entry GATW about 2 weeks after it was put in (The Falcon, Clapham Junction); then a wait of more than a year for the next one, when a local unit kindly decided to give me an extra life, then land on the heart square on an 11 with no lose hi/lo. They're still OK for a decent raise now and t...

I have a Spoons with a Lady Luck, an Alice, a Bank On It and a Digi Games unit.

On the Digi Games unit: Lady Luck, Alice, Lady Luck Roulette etc

Kossway should be commended for such imaginative machine placement

Wishing you and the family the very best Barney - I like and admire the sound logic you've applied to the situation. Been 'triffic reading your posts over the last few years and hope you'll pay us the odd visit from time-to-time. Not often Noel has said '..the next one!...' on a CP box over the year...

It charges you £300, then lights all the symbols red and says 'Go All The Way' on the alpha.

TRIPLE deal or no deal... same format as double with cashpot. Triple DOND is out there in the wild - not that I've found one yet - mixed reviews thus far.

If he's seriously got a method/emptier/moneymaker on these then there's no way he'd be finding time to log on here and post messages.

Unless he's mentally ill or something.

Does this include our nice cheap box one in the Spoons? Indeed it does. Twas quite amusing that - I slag it off and admit I don't wanna play it, and first board it goes and sticks pot in the box :) Agree it's a cheap'n'nasty production alright. Something about the artwork made it look altogether un...

The only three Open The Box units I knew of have all been removed in the past week, with far older stuff still sited in same pub(s).

Don't think these were doing too well in the old cashbox department.
