So.. it was a Sceptre machine then? Why on earth would you put a £20 note into one of them? Even if you got the anticipated £2 credit and £18 bank, all you would be doing was changing the note and emptying the hopper thereby leaving no money to win. Which, unless my sources and multitudinous experi...

Thought I'd just share this cautionary tale. Was in a pub last week in the Midlands with a "Hotwire" machine. Unfortunately I didn't have any change-the queue at the bar was six deep so in my impatience I put a £20.00 note into the note slot expecting the machine to offer me £2.00 worth of...

What's happened to this? Some units have the new UPDATED version, but most units I play on these days just don't have it at all :( Just that I guess. Previously upgrades seemed to be done nation wide quickly. Now there are two distinct versions. One with the new PMP and one where the game has been ...

Words from the prayer mate. Now the first couple of times I panicked but recently I calmed down - was brought up catholic so I know it by heart - and pressed 'thy' and apparently it's not in! 'Thy kingdom come thy will be done?' Indeed. Mind you, the music programme round often claims that Top Of T...

Tonkarentino "Likes" this....

The £1.00 jackpot was seen two years ago in Scotland-well before the disappearing game trick made it's debut

Definitely on Paragons but I'm positive version 1 never made it to a Gamesnet in any area of the country I visited..(which is a lot)

Fwiw, whilst not disputing its eminent pottability under the right circumstances, CP1 could restrict you to only three keys. Not sure how you were getting £5 or £10 from those trails.. Dr Who was much better on the second incarnation incidentally. Anyone who JP'd CP1 and had a game immediately afte...

This particular change is so dumb that I am genuinely mystified as to which of our two old friends (malice or incompetence) it should be ascribed to, but then surely no one would deliberately make such a snide and pointless change? After the recent tweaks to several games it has become abundantly c...

Hope you're not referring to me! I was already an expert on CP 1 and had JPed it many times, especially on the Gamesnets where it was £20 JP. Some kind soul finally told me what to do on CP2 as it was already on the way out - so sadly only got to do it about twice. If I'd known earlier I would have...

Let's not forget Gamestec couldn't get MOTD to work properly on itbox either. In contrast, it runs fine on Kudos or on Open cabinets. Similarly, BAM worked so badly on itbox they ended up taking it off, and when first implemented on Gamesnets the train bonus didn't work. All of these things would b...

now that's proper fucking security, you've got no chance of even seeing what bandit it is he's playing let alone what he's doing.

Came across one of these units in Kent at the weekend. A welcome sight. What next? Bully??

There was a version of Adders and Ladders as well which was particularly full of the Winners of the 3.30 at Kempton on the 26th June 1985 etc... Spoilers have been around from the start. It's just the question writers that change..... We had a mate who wasn't very good at quizzing but was shite hot...
