It 'can' do quite reasonable afters - £5 shot from the first square on the board - worth taking. Cashpots of around £5ish also.
Watched a chum play 'Warped' today (yep, it's essentially the same as MM) and it took £8 for a bonus, which gave SSS for a £50 Warped!

That SSS is SO rare that I'm never ready for it - and after missing it, it never seems to be the precursor to a JP-capable board as you might hope it would be.Matt Vinyl wrote:Watched a chum play 'Warped' today (yep, it's essentially the same as MM) and it took £8 for a bonus, which gave SSS for a £50 Warped!![]()
On the subject of the 5 symbols for Big Money on the JJ clones, has anyone had a maximum on a £35 version? (I think the amounts add up to £100... if memory serves me correctly)
This machine may at times offer a choice where the player has every chance of bankruptcy

Agreed! It doesn't come back either. It seems to be a very random bonus. I do find it slightly harder to hit on these machines where the cash trail is 'not straight' if you get what I mean, but usually hit the £35 if not MS. I've definitely learnt to always keep my finger on the start button after a bonus to pause the machine. You can at least then set your pint down and prepare yourself etc... 
As posted elsewhere, I've had reasonably good results on these and the various clones. Very difficult to read, as the profile doesn't seem that progressive. I'll often collect £10+ cashpots, even if on the force as it does still usually get you to the top feature, albeit it may go for less than it would had I not taken the cashpots - but there's no harm in having a bit of a safety net methinks...

This has replaced a Bucks Bunny in one of my locals, how ironic.
I don't like it as much as a force takes longer, the game play around the board isn't as quick.
I also don't like it as much because normal top features can stop after a tenner over the first JP whereas Bucks Bunnies do the full amounts.
Still had a nice touch at the weekend, forced and got a normal Money Magic give £45 then 2 boards later the flash for a £105.
