Message to Mr Bellfruit...

Post by Stopnstep »

... could you please, please, please put us all out of our misery and stop making these dreadful DOND machines.

Played Walk of Wealth yesterday for the first time, omg what a pile of wan*. Cue the streakypoos style rant...

Played on 50p play, this makes all numbers in view add to the trail. It is so blatant that it is stopping these numbers coming in, the amount of times I got onto pos 7 or 8 only to suffer massive pauses when I press the start button where it is clearly trying not to spin any numbers in is shocking!

Firstly, it cost £21 before I got my first fruit win, did have features but only from trail completions. So which do you hold for, numbers or fruit wins? I normally hold for fruits and don't really pay much attention to numbers but as this spends so much time rolling numbers off it seems to affect the fruit wins too.

Secondly, what the hell is that crappy DOND bonus thing, what a waste of time. It is a competition for how many mirrored reels you can get on one machine?

Thirdly, why do you proceed to go spin to ?, spin to ?, spin to ?, it does get rather boring after a while.

After all this I ended up putting £70 in and getting £60 back which was not too bad but just bloody boring. Don't think i'll be playing any of these again as I am bored of seeing Noel bloody Edmonds in every pub I go into!

Sorry for the rant but had to get it off my chest. :x

It's nice to see global making a comeback of sorts :) , but also sad to see hardly anything from the barcrest group.

That chart just about sums it up at the moment!!

I'm always happy to give DOND's a quick board, but unlike BFM's of the past that board can cost a score and block at £2!!!

Those terrible new globals/media are even worse.

Try for a board.....£10 in.

1 cash shot - £1. Spin - 1 feature shot - Rock/Boulder - spin - 2 cash shots - £2 & Rock/Boulder - spin - question mark/game over=death.
Thank you very much.

Even if you get on the warped board 90% of the time it spins you out second spin!!

You might get the odd £5 shot every £50 of recycled play, but unless you chase these which can cost £250+ you ain't gonna see a top feature or pot.
Unless you get the miracle random flash.

Whoever playtested this shite and passed it wants a serious beating.

I swear to you, Noel Edmunds has ruined the pub scene in many areas.

90% of the time you go into a pub to check whats in there it will either be a DOND variation or a global/games media.

Damn it, these owe me a living right???!!!

If anyone ever gets hold of an empty for these pieces of shite it will be worth at least £100k.

Simply because they are EVERYWHERE!!!!!

AAAAARRRRRGGGGHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!! Edmunds?????? You W**KER!!!!!!! Media/Global???? You lot are C**TS!!!!!!!


AAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

NO MORE OF THIS SHITE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!I WANT A £4 board without it costing £30 F**KING SHEETS!!!!!!!!!

THATS IT I'VE GONE IN SANE. i AM GONNA SUPERGLUE EVERY F**KING dond(EXCEPT HI-LO ONES :wink: ) AND EVERY GLO-SHITE STARTING FROM TONIGHT.

YOU'VE BEEN WARNED!!!!!

AAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!

HELLO?...................THANK YOU...........AAAAAAARRRRRRGGGHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!

RANT OVER.

The problem is...Munters just love to keep them "Cashboxes healthy".


Someone somewhere take these bastards to court. They SIMPLY CANNOT reach their 70-80% target payouts.
