I've blacklisted Bullseye

601?! :x

Why is the figure seemingly always 601 now? Rewind one year and it was rare you'd have to check out from over 401, and it felt like 301 was the figure about 40% of the time.

Has anyone else noticed this annoyance on Issue 55 Bullseye? Issue 54 and lower-Issue Bullseyes were fine, but I'm really struggling to make this pay any more :(

It doesn't matter what time of day I play, or even if I've put £1 to £5 in - the figure rarely drops.

If I see a 301 these days I feel like telling everyone!

I only play this if I've got a 50p left and nothing else to do, but it seems the target isn't as strong an indicator of potential prize as it used to be.

it might have something to do with the bonus prize actually being worth going for now. (now-ish)
before you could win a quid on the risk of 50p, now you can double your money and a bit more.

but 401 is normally no more than ten questions so it is not bad imo. i balk at 801 but if it puts 100 in the japseye then you can still do it easy enough.

Still see a 101 now and then, which is always nice, apart from when I 'bust' by overshooting and hitting the jap :roll: .

501+ and 25jap most questions is most annoying! :(

some of the replies have identified the main point here , you can have 401 and then 25's all the way or 601+ but with a couple of 100's and the rest 50's - which is better? - like DOND can give 25000 target and then spoil all the way or 50000 and give you 22000 offer for about 3 or 4 answers , you cant tell how it is playing until the game develops

dont find them going over 401 much still tbh, which makes it good for a few quid profit, especially on those non-itbox ones :P
