Doin A 'Route'

Post by pierkid »

Interested to here why so many of you seem to do a 'route' every day/week etc.

I myself play in one location day in day out to keep totally on top of things.

Is it a case of each to there own or am I just in the minority here?

I go all sorts of places, but i make sure i keep on top of home 2/3 times a week. I know refills, locations etc like the back of my hand here, so it makes playing more in your favour.

what happened to your vow to stop playing lukestar pray tell? Also would it really make sense to tell people your route on here, if it were good...?

Surely there is more value to be had from doing different sites rather than staying in one all day? Only my opinion, but what do you do if all your machines are dead?

ashford is pretty well covered also it doesnt really have a great deal of machines, as is brighton, maidstone, medway services, hastings, crawley... dont see you doing that well on that route...

oh but I forgot lukestar, you must have so many emptiers no one else knows about so you rinse it.... my mistake....

My 'route' involves a small(ish) village on the occaisional Thursday, which has 6 pubs with various goodies in, and a single town on a Friday. Said town however has 36+ pubs! :shock:
Uncovered a couple of beauts last Friday, namely an X-Rated, a good old DNA and a £35 OAR. ;)

Sub Zero

Hi!

I have been to Bluey recently and had great success with said machines! (The mrs works in a shop there too, and it's five mins from where I work, so often frequented!)

There's a lot of 'Munters' (not heard that for a while, at least since SA closed down!) there, and they make for easy pickings! There used to be a AFU there that was often ready.

Have never done Longfield for fruits, tend to stick to Bex / Gravesend...

;)

Why not come here for a days play then? I'll watch your amazing skills, but you can forget about getting you £15 an hour :P You can be content that i'm the only player here so everything will be fairly ready, and its a decent route.

Fancy it?
