Was playing it today for beer money, got a Trail Held on position 3 with no hold (had cherry, Extreme logo and some other fruit+3), then on the next spin, I got three numberless fruits (red 7, cherry and lemon), but it gave a Bonus which boosted to Extra Cash! Cash stack started at £5, which I collected. What the hell was going on? NEVER seen this before, must have been fucked.
Lol are you sure you sure you pressed the lower button and not the higher button?
What did it do, spin in another 12 or a lower number and still kill you? As for bucket loads, was probably a jackpot board. (Providing you dont hi-low gamble).
If any Extreme ever starts on £4+ then it is a very good sign, you should of played on really. As others have said it sounds like one of the reels was out of sync.
With Most Daunting, it was definitely on a 12 as the 'hi' button wasn't active (and yes the bulb was working). I started on a 3, went higher for a 12, went lower, got a 9 but got thrown off the board and back to the reel play. I collected the £5 on Bucket Loads as I was worried about the hi-lo reel screwing up again, as I managed to get on the board with numberless fruits due to a reel sync problem. So it was best to be careful really.
