Need some guidance,
Heard that some places play out for the jackpot on free play and then top up so that the mc thinks its paid out a jp and therefore plays poor for the punters.
Personally i'm quite sceptical i thought that the free play had no bearing on the actual machine.
what are your thoughts?
if not do you think some places use cash in MC to play out JP and then use the same cash to top up?

What happens on free play would not effect what happens when you play it for money.
What is likely though, is that they play the machine and streak it, then fill it up and leave it for some poor guy to chase.

Why would it?? Just think about what you're saying before you go mouthing off - that's one of the most ridiculous things I've ever heard. It's FREE play, so why would it affect the REAL play?

theres no such thing as free pay mode... its a myth
its called TEST MODE
and its simply for testing...
it doesnt use or need or alter the % ratio or need the use of money going in or out..
its simply to test the machine for bugs and or lights out sound problems etc...
it doent affect the machines "normal" play in any way

i played a red hot knights in my local that gave me £10 worth of free credits and everytime i got on the board it said victory {same as a shazam IM} got the bank too £75 pressed collect and paid me fuck all.
when they came too fix it they said it had been left in test mode so would'nt pay me. did'nt really expect too get paid anyway

lol, if you could play in test and take £100 out off £5 and it affected the play then I think every fruit machine in Britian would be dead 24/7 as the owners would just keep doing that.
Dont believe I have just read that

The arcade i'm on about the owner actually plays the machines at the end of the night, sticks his key in and tops them up.

Well if he keeps an eye on what is due he can streak them and then keep the money.
