I was visiting a friend and when i left it was a while until the bus turned up, so I went for a pint in this pub I had never been in before. It had a Games Warehouse machine right next to the bar.

There were only a couple of people in so i got chatting to the barmaid, who as it turned out was the landlords bird. After a while i went onto the quiz machine while she sat next to me and watched. Played a few DONDs then switched to Ceasers Palace and this was when she went crazy......
When I play CP i always have the calculator on my phone ready because of the silly maths questions (I had 82x82x82 once :shock: ) she went mental called me a cheat, a thief, everything!! Then she turned off the machine and went to the other end of the pub and turned the bandits off as well. When i pointed out the jukebox was still on she grabbed my half full pint and chucked it down the sink and told me to fuck off n never come back. when i called her mental she went out back to fetch hubby, thats when i thought fuck it n legged it.

The couple of people that were in couldnt have cared less what was happening, like they had seen it all before!!

why not ask her if the pub's in a wireless hot spot and get your laptop out, ready to google any killer questions?

:D

Sounds like a wise move on your part to scarper when you did. Whilst it sounds like a massive over-reaction on her part, it was rather provocative of you to use a calculator when standing right in front of the bar and barmaid. It's the kind of thing which people see as gaining an unfair advantage, even if wrongly. The reality here is probably that the barmaid or her husband probably chuck lots of their cash into the machine and therefore reacted strongly when they saw someone playing it well. Anyway, I'd say keep your calculator off next time your playing within sight of the bar.

Fuck me if she thinks a calculator is an advantage on Caesar's Palace she must be a muppet. A blindfold would be more use.

Takes me back to the days when there was a fruit I played regularly that had a JPable barcode that was a long follow me and always made sure I had a biro and the back of a fag packet at the ready- must have been when mobiles were in their infancy
