i actually emptied one of these. it had been in localish pub for ages, and i hated it. however i noticed that all coins being played thru were dropping to cashbox, whether the hopper was full or not. i decided now was my chance to get it removed. so i just built a good bank, and iou'd it for about £20 or summat!
unfortunately it was replaced by i'm a celebrity, but ll did pay me my iou!

how on gods earth did you IOU this machine off £20 quid sounds a bit far fetched to me were you pissed n not realise how much you put in or do you know somethin we don't
strength of the bear
as i explained above. the hopper, or the hopper sensor were fucked. all coins were dropping, regardless of whether the hopper was full or not, but it was still paying out. so i was recycling wins, building a bank. each win i collected was being paid out, but each coin inserted was dropping down so the hopper had to run out at some point.
i therefore decided to stay on it until it was empty, even if i lost to hopefully get this machine removed, and a better one installed. unfortunately they replaced it with i'm a celeb, so i failed in that part of my plan.
i do not have, nor claim to have an emptier for this. i just took advantage of a broken machine.

Bottle Bank
I wanted to bring back this topic again....this machine has just arrived now in my local pub....Called Bottle Bank - But Top Feature is Lotta Bottle
Now, I havent played it much, and im no expert....however, I have played the machine about 4 or 5 times....out of that, I have had the jackpot 3 times...so not bad....I dont force either....not sure if I should...I just try to predict when the feature is gonna kill me, and take any win...usually around £3 or £4 on fruit shots.....I started with £5 once, and just taking small features before I got chucked out of the feature board....I managed to accumulate about £30.... Not bad....About £12 - £15 later....the logo in the bottom right corner of the machine continuously flashed on feature entry...So im guessing that was me invinsibe? Not sure, I really havent played machine for long....
I was a bit of a coward....i just kept spinning, and it kept landing on +cash until i had JP...which I have yet to see repeat...ive had it 3 times...
What im thinkin, is should i have gone Hi-lo shots and gone for top feature...as the top feature went red and was also flashing?
Anyway...made a profit...but When you lose....you lose big time on this one I think....And i think forcing would be unwise!!
Theres always worse machines though...Battleships?? anyone heard of this...its shocking!!! £20 in, only 1 Feature Board...killed, highest prize offer was £3...Sick
Does anyone have any other ideas on this machine? Bottle Bank that is?

Nope, i wouldn't play for the top. I had the IM on this ages ago (as i said in a post from months ago above) and it gave me about £10 then died. The IM didn't return, so i forced out another JP which didn't repeta. Ended up about £20 down...cheers vivid!
