To all those muppets that pop the buttons round london:
sorry - just took all your profits!
always comes in handy to have a few spare buttons in the pockets.
cheers for getting them ready for me. 5 £20 cob's and a mega streak within 11 machines aint bad...
before you all have a go at me - I am not the one that is vandilising machines i do NOT take the buttons off them.
i put them back on
until next time ppl

People who break P5s are just cruel, saying that they are all gone now. I popped one button on one that someone kept beating me to.
Alls fair in gambling and war

Yep, so rise to the challenge and get there before your competition, learn their routes, timings etc. Make things hard for them, visitors are less likely to come back if they find an area stone dead. Locals will eventually take the hint or lay off if they find machines with no value time and time again.
Vandalising machines however is just pathetic.

if someone has knocked a button out, how do you put it back in without opening the cabinet ?

I don't buy into this COB mentality. I refuse to believe there is a separate pot for this. Perhaps I am totally and utterly wrong. I just can't see it. I know BFGs do LOVE to tuck away 'hidden %' but I just don't believe it happens on these. I think what you're seeing is a REFLEX. It's programmed so that - no one has used cash or bust because they must think it's shit. Let's reflex some good COBS even if fairly comatose for the next people. As soon as it's slightly out the dead area it's in there. If it's a 'pot save' surely you'd have one, two, three four blaps on £20, £jackpot, MS (never seen this off COB) etc
Does the first COB always go in? Not always, but the machine can be ? first go dead and you'll see a stray £20+
The first two you could select it off ?, Wiyb has no COB, neither does P5. WOW does, not sure if you can select it. Maybe WOW does have a seperate pot, not played it half as much as wiyb, 4 reel and btbanker. Does HOF have one? Not seen one since Leicester.
I'm not a big fan of the button breaking. Sounds a little bit slimy.

I have zero respect for people who think that deliberately breaking buttons (otherwise known as 'wanton vandalism') represents acceptable behaviour. I would recommend that anyone who thinks this is an OK thing to do should grow up and start behaving like an adult.
