win stoppers
had a weird one on this today, machine was flying, dialing, super holds, etc, etc... i made the schoolboy error of going for the 3 hold on the dial, and getting it when it was a bonus, which crashed the machine... fine no big deal i thought, or so i thought, the machine went stone dead on me.
In the next £30 i got 4 boards, all dead, and left it not impressed at all, has anyone else experienced anything like that happening?

Seen this happen on other machines in the past, machine is all ready to go nuts, goes up, fucks up, then goes dead for no reason.
Me and dom had a monopoly (same as golden game) 5 pounder do it, a fiver in, flying, giving whistles for the game every other spin near enough which we ignored, nudging for LES set up like crazy, ignored a couple, took one, it went up the first time for a flat fiver, then came the long spins and lots of whistles, the streak had started, so we took the next board, it went to go up, froze on the entry on the top screen (slots), unfroze after about 30 seconds, spun in a quid, stopped, dead.
It took about another £15 to get it buzzed back up to where it was before, but we still made about a tenner on it as we were only 5 quid in when it went wrong.
I was once told that this is snidey programming to try and stop people forcing, but i reckon that may be bollocks myself, just a case of a malfunction.

Re: win stoppers
Yep, played this chip the other day, namco. chip 5 plays fast. Cant win on 2 or 11. i managed to get a £10 roll in on 50p which i gambled to £12 and collected, then got the dial on 10p and got a £34 ish deal with £15 in the box, and i couldnt tell between the 2 if u know what i mean. Cant believe they went to the trouble of making another chip in this stage of its life? I was lucky to be about level on it, wont be touching that again.moterwayplayer wrote:right theres none of these machines around and there rubbish but i actully found a chipped winstopper that blocked slow bonuses etc and lost every time on the 11 was very strange as ive never seen nouthing like it why would they bother in this day and age i was thinking maybe its gonna be converted to a 70

Good night, for those of you that are still awake.
I must admit I was surprised to see a posting entitled win stoppers, I thought a lot of people here were more likely to be win starters.
Is a win stopper something that would be beneficial to use on my machines to prevent frooling?
It is a sad sign of the times that we even have to think of installing win stoppers on what used to be simple pub entertainment, like skittles and sing alongs.
How much would an entry level win stopper cost and are they easy to self install?
Also I think I must be in VIP now, but am not sure how to get in there. I am technophobicly minded if you excuse me, so some guidance would be nice.
