Played this earlier tonight during the Celtc game in a local boozer, always good for a punt as it seems fairly happy all the time.Anyway i keyed it before proceeding and it was £97 light, doesnt have a note acceptor.Thought id just slip my silver in a hope for a quick board to asses its deadness .

90p in.Red boosting to start.Straight to nudges/bonus/extra life ect ect.In other words " buzzing ". Didnt push all out for the supernova but potted it through tutti-frutti upgrade.Another 30p in, no repeat.Machine now £122 light !

The only reason i can think it was that happy to start with is that it must surely be getting tooled/rodded or whatever they call it,either that or the locals have stumbled on a free win .

Anyone agree or disagree ?

maybe getting spooned or maybe its been played with coins other than £1 coins so alll coins go to the bottom.

I'd say it's nailed on to have been deliberately under floated, particularly common in locations that house these older machines.

Or they forgot to press top-up button after dumping hopper/refill.

I reckon it has been tooled or perhaps played with £2 coins perhaps as its not a pub that touches the machine and neither do the supplier.

Was quite strange seeing it red boosting at £97 light though i must admit.

Hope it stays as the pub keeps thier machines sited for best part of a year.Well the last few have anyway.

check if its plated and check how badly damaged the right hand side is

over zealously under floated ,or not floated correctly,probably.
