Does the cancel cheat work on Leap Of Faith ?

Moreover, does the cancel cheat work on Fireman's Lift!!! All credit to you my man, but I hope later machines have some form of originality. That's not a dig at the current ones as familiarity is what you need to get the punters in...

Didn't it go 1,5,4, 11 ?

Pretty sure a seven came 2 before. That's what i think I did it off. Although it was 10 years or so ago.

1 / 7 / 2 / 11 / 5

Heh, sadly, I remember that all too well!

isnt firemans lift lower on the feature stack than usual??

Well unless everyone has a touch screen computer I would imagine it would be impossible to have the mouse on cancel and hit the 11 at the same time ! Maybe we should all shut up and wait until the official releases and if any true skill features are incorporated then they could be exploited !!!!

Yup, normally £5 level not £4

I actually think the idea of the lower JP's is a good idea, i'd much rather play the PCB clone with a £15 JP than £35 JP.

One thing i really wanna know is how does the machine operate to a percentage?? And how progressive is it compared to a real fruit machine, for example there could be 100 people playing it at once, what determines who gets a machine that's gagging and who gets the suck after someones top?

In terms of Fruit Machines - the games are fully controlled in terms of game state by the creation of multiple game instances and depending on the number of concurrent players there may be several thousand live 'game instances' for each individual title. When a player logs in to a title he will be allocated a game instance to play. If there are pre-existing game instances available the player will be given one of those and the player will begin his session from where the last player left off (as you would do if you walked into a pub). If no game instance is available (if all are occupied by active players) then a new game instance will be created just for you as if we have wheeled you in your own special machine on request. When you leave the session - then that Game Instance will likewise become available for others to play from where you leave off!! No two instances are ever the same, but when a game instance is created anyone allocated that instance in the future will always continue in the cycle from the last sessions end point.

Clever stuff! It'll be interesting to see how these play at their 'factory default' settings. Might mean it's more / less profitable to play when it's 'maxed out' by players. Although I suppose we won't be able to glean that information...

That sounds like a brilliant way of working it.
