I quite liked it. Did pretty well on the only 2 I ever saw near me. I saw an £8 version of it on saturday but it was switched offtheoak wrote:WHY IS RAISE THE ROOF YOUR AVATAR?! AWFUL MACHINE!

What you needed on RTR was to have a life/start the board with no lose, then hope to land on mice, usually it won't kill you on the first 4 mice, but the 5th one will always be lose (unless its an IM/amazingly ready). Given you have the life at the point u land on the 5th mice, you got the IM.
Problem is that it liked to spin to the lose square as well as mice, which gets rid of your life and chance of blagging it! If its dead, its doubtful you'll get a life/no lose start, and besides which one of the first 4 mice will probably end up killing you.
You can do the same old vivid hi-lo/board jp thing on these, they were never chipped (along with manic streak/loony juice etc.), although often the hi-lo on these would be miles off ready for no particular reason (i.e. they were full and clearly not recently done), so be careful on that score. Loony juice was one of the best vivids (although rare), it was a clone of manic streak, but the streaks were huge, unlike manic streak which didnt really do much more than the minimum £50.

Same here, been ages since I saw an £8 JP. It was in a bar in a water park. right by an arcade so I guess they couldn't have £25/£35 due to all the kids being around.theoak wrote:an £8 version!? i havent seen an £8 jp in ten years! I remember always hitting the question marks (think they were mice or something-i forget) of the skill squares- 5 turned you invincible. did it "once in a while when utterly dead from this. Never worked out if there was a true method there.

Spot on their but in my experience I regularly got Invincible. Basically it usually cost anything from £5 - £20 to get the top. Top was £25 - £45.
Once in a while it would do 2 tops on the trot for around £65 in total
