Dodgy start button

Post by Stevie S »

Was on GADD last nite and it had a really dodgy start button you had to proper twat it hard to get it to work. And just my fuckin look a SSS come along! havent had one 4 ages rite up to that big fat £35 i tried so hard, i tried so hard to twat that button so it would hit the big one, but no it didnt :(

Took me £30 to get a MS for a strange and anoying £40 :x

Had to go so couldnt stay and force another. :x

Any one else had a bad experiance with sticky/dodgy buttons.

GADD - SSS? :?

Anyway, I know what you mean, I had a OAR where the 50p play button required a serious thump to get one spin out of it. Thankfully they've fixed it now as it's not a bad payer... ;)

I had a Money Spider on saturday night where the start button kept jamming down - so it would offer a hold but respin before you could even hold any reels. Or when I got a win it would gamble it 2 or 3 times in quick succession making me lose each time! :x

playing a DNA once in a Grey Goose in london, both the 1st hold, start and cancel buttons were completly f*cked, as was the note excepter. . .oh and the coin mech! the machine was so overly ready offering skill bonuses every other bloody credit. it must of made for quite a funny scene, me trying to wedge the cancle button whit my mate hammering start button when NR came up :) it took about an hour and a half to put £100 through it and get a top, and by the end of it me and my mate were literally screaning at each other and the machine. comedy with hindsight, but at the time an absolute nightmare.

Maybe he just means that normal skill stop that can go up to the tenner, rarely though. Had a top result on a CADD yesterday, £3 in for a £50 ms (£25jp) I had 9 shots on the top bit, which of course was MS. I took the first one, and it said 'skill shot' on the alpha. Never seen that before, anyone else? ;)

Yep, you can get skillshots in all 3 zones if its flying. Need to catch these £5 ready really, but you can get away with £4 most of the time.

Sorry i must be mistaken i thought SSS was when the cash at the side of the reels goes all the way to the top £25/£35 once then back down again, just the once off a bonus! thats what happend.

Probably a stupid question, but does '£5 ready' mean;

A) £5 consistently being offered first shot, or
B) £5 being offered any time whilst on the board?
