Not usually one to play these but after losing a bit in FNC decided to give a quick bash, (50p/£35) offered £10 from first feature so after a bit of deliberation (and losing that feature) decide to push on. Next few boards offer tenners still so push on... and on... and on... and on, you get the picture.

After taking £102 off me and me at the point of jumping off the nearest roof it finally gives BTQ, flat £35. Luckily next feature was IM and that repeated so for £107 in got £105 back and nearly an hour of my life wasted to make £2. :x

you're a lucky sod to get that back! I'm sure we're missing something good on these machines.

There is something good on these (and BB). You need to time it right, and it may mean sitting around for a long while watching, but you can guarantee the £100... ;)

I agree with the oak's sentiment, you're lucky to actually profit. forcing a bellfruit and bad idea are usually found in the same sentence.

Oh, I agree with theoak, I certainly wouldn't force these buggers...

...unless the signs are there... :)

..its not a bellfruit?

I didn't mean to insinuate your information was not worth having, just that I personally only know the locations of three of these (or clones), and if it involves hanging about, or long winded methods for small profits, dont really see it being worth much to me!

They are as boring as bugger to play too... :(

There are a few of these floating around in Bellfruit cabinets - so you can be forgiven! Most however are in metal Global cabinets.

Was very lucky I know. Won't be doing that in a hurry again. Interesting what you say though Matt, would think £10 offered on first feature would be a pretty good sign but obviously not! Care to shed any light?

I don't touch these but i thought that getting offered the £10 cash shot was the sign it was 'there'
These sort of m/c's, like to do good afters though, so maybe that's what it was

Sorry you can't just post that and not elaborate, it's against the law.
