Sorry to hear such a sad tale. The worst detail is...nine bloody quid! Hardly bleeding the place dry.
You have to wonder how much they'd let you win without a fuss - £3 on a 50p stake? Or would winning a quid back after putting one in still result in threats?

Think it's gone for good this time. Pity. Is this based on what you've seen (or not seen) on machines in a particular area, or something more official? As discussed elsewhere, it doesn't take much to knock a game off any given Paragon these days... Based on what I've seen oop north. It's not someth...

Thick and fast

No that's not the name of a new game but the regularity of new dreadful games appearing on the paragon.
Saw one yesterday called Pass The Bull or something. Somebody's having a laugh. Didn't even bother wasting the 50p.

I'm sure I saw a pub called The White Swan in an episode of Midsomer Murders. Hope he's alright, things can get quite racy down that neck of the woods.

Yes it's complete cackbabble. Totally disoerientating the way the word drops down and the letters rearrange. Seems to take ages too. Once and never again. Bit like that new bingo monstrosity and None Of The Above.
These games are embarrassingly bad.

That sounds ominous. Might as well just have a big Monkey Spank on the front and be done with it.

Eliminator seems to be on its arse everywhere lately. It's fine if you're a retired astronaut, ex-olympiad living by a South American river, supporting Aston Villa while watching motocross whilst wearing a Cuffley Cap and playing Boo Ray all day long. Seems to have gone from most boxes round by me....

Fresh machine

Was in a pub this morning and some blokes start looking at the back of the itbox I'm playing. Asked him what he was doing and he said he had to change it to a gamesnet. So he wheels it in and I'm thinking that being the first person to play on this machine I'll clean up. I won six or seven quid on o...

The same unit is also sporting Million Pound Drop. It plays like the tv show, however bends the rules by giving you anything up to 4 questions each round after you have chosen your subject matter.
