Fruit Machine Chat

I'd like to harp on about what I'd discovered in the past, since it seems to be a trend on here now.

I didn't work out Hall of Fame, compared to the great Matteo (and yes, I HAVE met him so I think I'm entitled to mention him) and was rather crap at it (and still am but make enough off a nice hidden one for now). In fact, I once filled one up in a bowling alley for him to empty because I was feeling generous. Informed his 'bitch' (David) that it was full and I'd done my nuts in it (it was just in that mode where I just didn't have a clue) and to him to tell him to go back to it and help himself. He seemed to be nice enough, a good lad, unfortunately though, it seems David's cheek and blatant rudeness is rubbing off on him now and he's giving out attitude when really not necessary. Don't be a sheep, Matt... especially with David as your shepherd - that's my advice...

Anyway, I was pretty much on my lonesome back in the day regarding Battle Axe/Revolution/Ultimo. Everyone said Ultimo was impossible to empty - rubbish! I had the one in the arcade in Earl's Court giving 6 steps on selector when there was no buzz in the thing. They literally would go mental. There were a few in the services and 1 in a pub in Queensway, 1 in Ruislip and 1 in Chiswick. It was quite a rare machine. They never chipped it to kill you on a step, don't know why that was.

Then we come to win stopper/What's In Your Box. I was playing them alone after the chip, no one said a word to me about taking them all the way again and I was taking more and more, gaining confidence. Suddenly there were a few of us comparing notes and we all just started emptying. A certain person did not believe me about them being empty-able and sent me a detailed text message as to WHY it was completely unthinkably impossible to do so - and that was about P1, he also dismissed my attempts to show him how to do P2s... tut tut...

HOWEVER! From that point, from the point of being able to sit in a pub for hours and empty them all day, not run around doing loads of hits (ie 2, 3, 4 machines a day to empty, not much travel required) I feel we became lazy and spoilt! You could literally lounge about eating in a Moons and not worry because you only had to put a few quid in and yes, sometimes they'd screw you around but basically it was plain sailing.

At times I was spotted by the odd player who'd be running around doing his bits and bobs and it looked to them like I had become a DOND addict! Little did they know...

Many people claim they were on these early, they really weren't... you don't drive around every service station finding them full when they're being done! I've heard many a claim of "I was doing that one for months" then thought to myself "Oh, they must have been refilling it every hour then!"

OK I was shit on P3 but by then there were hardly any left anyway.

I also discovered how to do skill roulettes with a bit of help and note comparing from a certain secret contact.

I was better than anyone on Vamp It Ups and anyone who argues with that point obviously never saw me play one.

I discovered number sequences on Global Draw Roulette too.

I also discovered WHY you could empty Fruitopia, it was all down to the programming of the game on £15 and porting it over to £25. Again, anyone who argues is a fool, that is a FACT (we miss you, Rafa)!

Ask Jason if it was me who used to look in the window for what box was on the DOND's he will confirm that is the case. Unless he wants to continue lying about me.

Going REALLY far back, I was the best at hitting Shoot Em Up on Arcadia and played a big part in the discovery of the actual empty, despite what anyone else may say. Top professionals were going around hitting ridiculous amounts like 5ers thinking they were good, someone brought it to my attention that you could hold the cancel down, I practiced non stop on a £5 version in a service station on the M20 until I perfected my skills on it. Unlike some less tolerant players, I never did my nuts in one and always emptied them while they left them full up in service stations on the M4!

Now much of this stuff must sound familiar to you all and my claims that I worked stuff out may sound far fetched... maybe I wasn't as quick to discover some of this stuff before others did, but I worked them out as I've said, without help.

That's why I don't feel its that important to be on the phone 24/7 trading info anymore.

I was also very good on the Extremes, especially the £35 jackpot version.

If I am now waffling, I apologise, but that is the same as harping on - which is what I said I'd do. All rather pointless but at least I'm not causing trouble and bringing back memories.

Oh, I was rather good on Hammer Horrors too.

Would anyone else like to contribute what they feel they have worked out in the past?

The wisest people on here are those that never post, fact. I made £4.80 tokens on Donkey Kong once.

In that case, Master of Games is the wisest of all. He has the avatar of an owl and has been silent for ages. Wonder what he's up to?

i would love too have a vamp off with you ahmad,i too learnt them myself

i think it's more important what you'll work out in the future myself,bit of a tricky topic though

Sadly, that's unlikely to happen. Ever seen a Fired Up that picks? I had 1 but got barred thanks to some fucking irritating nosey law student PRICK who worked behind the bar!

Hogshead, Uxbridge. DVS Leisure.

It didn't have the legal jargon on it, so had to be a test unit.

I can't be bothered to brag about what i've worked out in my years, its all irrelevant now.

Yes, that was the 1 I got barred from. You and I met through being the only ones seemingly doing Ultimos.

Help me!

I know plenty of people doing them before me.

1st I've heard of it!!! Now you tell me!!! ops:

Vamp still in port talbot, doubt it picks. And who wants to go to that shit hole anyways.

And, you can never say that you were the very first person on something as its impossible to ever know that. Of course, you might of been on it early if ever unit you found was full, but you just don't know what's going on the end of the country or whatever.

I think everyone has worked something out or had things earlier than others.

I believe I was on extremes/power 5s/4reelers/cash attacks pretty early but I was a bit to naive in realising the potential money that could of been earned.... And with that also I would probably bet that some were on them even earlier. You just don't know.

Don't be so hard on yourself. If some services were full its because I was surrounded by about 40 of them to do in my 'area'

I don't believe you are, George.

I think you're as good on machines as your namesake with surname Michael is at singing and getting into trouble.

Now just PM me what you THINK you know that you think I might also know and I'll tell you you're wrong, even if you're right.

You certainly wouldn't be down if you knew what I know! Well, get another £10K together and I'll earn you £1000 a day for a long, long time...just stay off my patches (95% of UK).

Not for sale to anyone except the following:

Redlinesman
JG
MoG
Electrocoinist

Everyone else, dream on...or PM me stating your case.

i thought we were friends..

all it takes is one call to ocean finance, id get your 10k before the end of buisness today?


worked out an empty once.. for red gamings fairground.. this still works.

also i know something on £15 fruitopia thats unheard of..

the port from £15 to £25 or jp to jp-raise ports has effected probably 50% of games.
basicly the shortcuts on a lower jackpot remove the block up to £40-£50 early
