Being nice does pay, but you have to be wise about how you are nice. There is a reason that financial institutions do thorough checks before lending people money, and that reason is that the biggest indicator of someone's ability/willingness to repay a loan, regardless of their personality type or f...

Will who Darren from the IOW always had to clue up and bail out of trouble.

Let The Good Times Roll was a particularly good one - could empty that just by playing it for max value per board and a bit of luck thrown in.

Spend some of your machine money on proper legal advice (couple of hundred for a simple situation like this) if it bothers you.

Nothing worse than legal advice from non-lawyers.

I really do think not many look to the bigger picture. Say 20 years from now what will most have? No ni stamps so no state pension. I doubt many pay a personal pension so in 20 years time how comfortable do most think they'll be? I'm mortgage free pay a work pension and a private pension and ni. So...

I always found them good for a raise, and the clone, but then I was only about 12 when those games were around. I do have fond memories of them though. Saw one for sale recently, can't remember the name of it, but it was the one where instead of having a trail that went up from 1 to 8, it went upto...

Buzz up the fiver pot, and then hold for fivers with the golden X. Machine didn't see the golden game as a fiver, and thought that it was ok to drop in a golden game when not due. Repeat and empty.

The Scam of Non Payout Calculation Thread

For quizzers and players alike. Post the number of machines/quizzes that you play on average a week, and any non-payout that you fail to get. I'd be interested to try an calculate a rough national percentage of just how much is robbed from the playing community with this info. Soemthing like: Avg. P...

If you want the best in Japanese food in London, Nobu beats the others hands down. You'll need to own some evening wear though.

The most money I ever made out of an empty must have been golden games. They were ubiquitous, and not many people were doing them for a long time. Even once the empty got chipped, for the best part of 1.5 years it was rare to find a set that you wouldn't make on just playing them blind to the correc...
