DOND - Hall Of Fame

Saw this today, it wasnt what i was looking for so i went to the next pub. i dunno why i didnt stay to have a proper look??? Is it on test or new release or what? clone or new? Please someone put me out my misery

Argh, no, no, no, NO, NO! not another one!!!

I really have a genuine phobia that a bearded man asking to check what's in his box is following me from pub to pub. Argh!

Old news. I still haven't seen the Big Reds though. It'll never stop.

saw one in a boozer down here and played it. What a steaming pile of bellfruit. 60 notes straight through and not even a sniff of winning anything over 3 pounds. Dire first experience on it.

what you complaining for...nearly every other DOND has has some kind of cheat/empty for it so lets just hope this one has

I think bellfruit are trying to design the worst ever DOND. Played HOF last night. Complete dire. I'ts a slight copy of reds. Nudges up the right to 12 then cash wins up the left. Instead of feature shots theres phones. Also has hidden features that when played on 50p are super. Bonus is crap, hard to get on nudges, don't have much on nudges, Kills on 3 and 10, Shuffle nudges is worthless. Only thing is it gives hidden features quite regularly. Also gives a slow down choice out of nowhere. Took win series which did a respectable £15 on normal. Walked about £20 down.

And another thing to note. They've pushed the hi/lo buttons across 1 so be careful. I hit lo thinking I was hitting hi
Hold 1 is HI hold 2 is Lo.

watched a mate plough a good £40 into one of these with little action. when he was offered the 3 telephones his box was blue everytime. i do like the idea of swapping your box tho :P
i personally would never play the m/c it looked and played awful.

Had a proper go on this on friday. It'll be the last time I play it too. Even though the end result wasn't a complete nightmare. It's just so boring.
Backing off 1st quid so thought I'd force it. It cost £12 to get my 1st board, 2 nudges No win, gambled to 3 nudges then died on higher than a 3!. It then took another £10 to get back on nudges and got mystery win which gave £1.00! gambled to £2 then lost.
About £40 in I'd had 5 boards and the highest win I'd reached was £4. Then out of nowhere it gambled up from £2 right upto £35 but you can't gamble for MS and the £35 isn't repeater!
It only cost £3 for another board so I was hoping it was streaking and gamled from £1.60 upto £4 but then killed me as I gambled for the 3rd phone. It then took about £15 to get back on for a dead board with no win offered.
It took the whole £35 back for about 3 boards (2 of which I didn't even get on the cash side) then had about another £20 before it started to show some signs of progression i.e offering the phones & reaching blocks at £6 then £10 then £20.
I got to a point of £85 in and was low on coins. Tried a Note and it just wouldn't take anything. No change behind the bar as mate had the last for his DOND WOW which also had non working Notey. So collected phones hoping for MS. Got £3 which repeated to £12. Then got hidden features which was skill choice so took red win series for £35. £10 for next board which was a flasher for a flat £35 MS. next board got the phones open and got down to 10p or MS with an offer of £17.60 which I collected and guess what was in there? MS :x

End result was £100 out for a total of about £110 - £120 in. The gaps between boards are just a joke.

you woulda been up if youd no dealed on that last one!

Thanks for that reminder

You can go past £35 - it gives you Win Series, which is effectively MS.

Mine wouldn't. Had 6's n 7's off bonus and when I gambled to £35 it put a 7 in but just auto collected the £35.

It played all right down Thomas's, but was a test machine and obviously set to 99.99% payout. In a services I could see this blocking needlessly for the phones. As annoying as any other DOND could be I guess.

Heh, good Avatar Streaky!

Perhaps you've got an older / newer one than me Gaz? It defo does it here, although it's a bit 'messy' as in it looks like it was programmed in as an afterthought.

A point I'd like to check, if it offers you the 'win series' when the boxes are activated at the bottom, is this MS?

Blocking for phones - yep, this is tedious! The fact that you could often get the three phones by only winning a couple of gambles means that you often get fobbed off without a nudge win being offered.

Although having said this, it makes a change to see the Bee-Eff-Emm-Errs trying something different to their usual stuff. Even if they are ripping off our beloved Reds...
