Its unbelievable to find them with 2 let alone 3 in them, but if it gets some serious lump and is previously untouched then who knows? I've had them gamble to the corners without the aid of steps/life off a few quid, and be flying after, the trouble with them games is punters don't know how to get the value out, someone watched me corner one months ago, got the classic hint3 first board, so a few days later he decided his best plan of attack was to attempt to reach the corner, he done £300 in it without succeeding, and that 'only' had 3 in it, to have 8 does sound excessive, but if thats what the man's saying!

sure that wasnt a p2? p3's could be a nightmare to get out playing them like that especially if it was the last one in it.

Yep. P3. Was nuts. Was a while back so can't exactly remember but 2 and 3 came about by having 2 steps, 2 away. Stepping to bonus for hint. When it did the exact same thing next board was shocked. Even more shocked that it got paid out the til! IOU £79

Same unit gave hint 10, 5 times in a row, different time lol.

my record on a p1 alien was £309 profit.
i can't remember how many jackpots i took but i think that it must have been 6 -7 jackpots.
it paid everything out too.
i also worked out the p2 method well before p3 came out.
i was regulary taking out 5-6 jackpots every day from most of my aliens.

Either your name is Joe Butcher or you are a liar.

Joe was doing them so early that any he had that were still p1 he would bell up on purpose knowing it would get chipped to p2, which was better for him. I think he did it to spite people as well.

I remember going to an Alien on the outskirts of Bristol I presumed was p1, (alot still were) and put over 20 in for no board. Thought I might as well get it anyway, but it cost over 80 to get 7 heaven, then it slipped. I was both mystified and mortified.

Then I heard Joe had been in the area the day before and it all became clear.

Someone once speculated that he was making a grand a day just off aliens, something I don't disagree with. He used to work like a trojan, out at 7am every day, and would get home at 1am, grab some sleep and go out again.

When you speak to Joe you feel as though he is carefully analysing everything you say, and when he speaks he considers the ramifications of what he says before he does. He is shrouded in mystery, many actually don't believe he exists, or that maybe he is some sort of remorseless fruit playing robot. Others speculate he is in fact not called Joe at all, and several people have likened him to Kyser Soze, a character from the film The Usual Suspects.
