Queen - It's a kind of tragic

Post by JG »

In the pub the other night. Had a board on this. £8 in for a £3 board. Ok, unlucky, but no raised eyebrows.

However I wanted to hear the SFX, even though I can see it's a Big One clone of sorts.
So in the services the other day. 50p stake. How much for a board?
Now I know Big One takes the piss a lot for boards and Double Up when it's red, but this Queen - We Are The Champions was a new record.
£42 for a £2 board then bite the dust.
It filled up all the letters bar one, which when that final letter doesn't come in, which it hates to give, then you will pay big bucks for a board unless cherries or mixed 777 roll in.
I find it WHOLLY unacceptable that I should pay £42 for a board. Under no circumstances should a board ever cost that much. Even a destroyed dial or HOF won't take that much on top stake. As far as I'm aware this is also a very unplayable machine. The Deal Game is rigged.
The SFX were ok and that f'ing infinity mirror is there again.
However, what an insult of a game to a great band.
Have BFG made a poor game even worse?
Even OB didn't like this one and he found BIG Ones ok.
That said, most of my Big Ones have shuffled away, but this is coming in en masse.
Any thoughts?
Or even puns?

Such as -Queen We Will Mock You, It's a kind of tragic etc


Or even - what's the emptier then?

Switch when it gets 1 away to avoid such things.

I got that beat by £51 George.

Yup £92 for a feature.

Obviously not saying which game now!!!

And u should know by now that when ur talking about OB ur talking about the Rob of hi-tecs.

'GATW first board on that PP'

'Ton bust 1st board on that chance'

More amazingly on the same night 'Triple was holding'

All the above on same day after he'd probably played them the day before!!!

I mean if he thought big ones were ok then we needn't say anymore really.

Did you get percentage?
Are these forceable?
Do they save for a big GATW?
Did you give it a smack, or even headbutt it?

Good lad, you can't let them get away scot free with that kind of cheating.


I make it my business to inform punters that the deal game is rigged. I was back in the same pub the other night and some lads were rowing it round. I told them the sp on the rigged deal and maid of money next to it. Educating the keener punters about dirty games will hurt these companies as well.

You're doing well to get £25 on this deal game. I hope your boyfriend vowed never to play it again. It certainly doesn't deserve repeat custom.

Mr X you're on about Queen Forever, looks like a Winfall clone with added extras. I doubt I'll love it, but I'll probably try a few boards and take it from there. Remember that test mode at ICE is worlds apart from 74% in a pub.
