Dial Trouble - thanks to THIEVING TOOLING LITTLE **** *****

SilverSurfer · Post by **SilverSurfer** » Sun Oct 26, 2008 12:11 pm

There I was last night, playing a particularly annoying Dial trying the get the bloody mega off the dial and the invincible out when it froze - on respin after I'd skill stopped the dial onto the right reel and had a bonus and held the dial. It quite simply froze. I'd been rotating a lot of money and some ugly bird was watching me from the bar. I made it quite clear without actually saying anything that something had gone wrong and plugged it to reset it because I was about £50 into it. Just as it came back on I realised the pub boss was standing behind me and he said "What's going on?" I said it froze and he said something about me giving the machine a rest because it was tired, I ignored it and so I continued... I hit the blue line skill cash thingy on mega having waited about 10 minutes and the nosey slag said something about me being very good on the machine and she'd been watching me. It seemed to me she was talking to the boss about it and they thought I was up to something but how could they think that when the one slightly weird thing I did was turn the machine off? Later the boss comes up to me and says "I wonder what you're doing over there..." and then continued "Are you all right?" I said yes and he walked away. Basically, I'm convinced he thought I was tooling it - through sheer ignorance. These people seem not to have a clue HOW these machines get tooled - I never put a note near the thing, I stuck untold coins in eventually even though I got a small profit out in the end thanks to the machine taking the piss. I bet I get barred next time I go in there. THANKS A LOT TOOLING *****.

Fair enough, got to be well, well ahead though surely?

Or maybe you held the three sharks after the feature time out and it was a 'no lose' board?

usually a game to hit the £8 isn't it?

OK, if I ever get it I'll wait, thought it did time out, but I'll wait next time.

It doesn't time out as far as I know - waited over 20 mins once. I regularly hit mega streak because I only press start when it passes £15.

Fairplay, obviously only gives lines when ahead, but even so, fantastic rip. Next time, MS here we come, I stand corrected.

turning machine on and off without playing all dumb is asking for trouble. It sounds like you brough it all on yourself.

Fair enough you will see boxes more often when there is value in the machine, but surely you've had them when you've been sat on a P2? I've had them dozens of times, and not always off superhold either. I've had them thrown in on 10p, and that was to finish the game off, so they must come from a separate pot.

Right. Third time hold is only given when the machine is ahead. On recollection superhold onto boxes I have seen to be fair actually when dead. Ok fairplay, does happen. Either seperate pot, reflex or just rare as fook when dead.

A third time hold for boxes when dead would confirm seperate pot/reflex. I'm sure mine have all come from superholds.

You can't swap either as it doesn't recognise a hold on matching boxes as a pair.
