Hi

I'm Peter, 55, just retired and in the process of building an extension to create a gamesroom/American theme diner. I bought an Itbox today. Reason for joining is to make the best of my room and the acquisitions. FM and Jukebox still needed.

Cheers

How do you get into VIP?

You sign into someone else's account on VIP or you ask to be admitted or you just get bestowed with VIP status. This isn't normally a problem, however

1) VIP could be an urban myth
2) It's not
3) we've just admitted a few new people so can't admit any more until APRIL 2013 at the earliest due to fire regulations.

Hi.

I'm Mark, play around with SWPs (mainly Itboxes at the moment), if anyone has an Itbox and needs help with codes for access (collector / engineer) then bung me a line. Also if you are in the Midlands and need a copy of a working drive (to replace a dead one you legitimately own of course) then I might be able to help you there too if you bring along a 30GB+ hard drive. Always wothy making a copy of the drive (Norton Ghost works well) as otherwise if you let things like Skill Ball Bingo expire on licence (date driven it seems), then you need to go back to a backup (after "correcting" the date" before the fun can resume.

I have noticed folks referring to a "whack on the right hand pint holder" in a few places. I know this is next to the coin mech and cash box but I cannot see how this helps, can someone please clarify a smidge?

Thank you
Mark

phil , a lot of us are from the same era ,,,,,,,, i would give my right nut for a fully working rat race , ace chase , fruit cracker , master spy etc ,,,,,,,,,,, quickstep , goldmine , aladins cave , test pilot , blue streak , step n skip , win-a-gain , super spoof lol ,,,,,,,,,,, any of those wet your nostalgic appetite ?

trouble is where to get one fully working etc ? ,,,you could trawle round old wank crumbly seaside arcades , but i think their all but extinct now,,,,,,,,, just got to hit lucky on ebay i suppose .

anyhow welcome to the site 1 and all
