Old empties: KING KEBAB

Who was doing these? How long did you have it for? Were you doing it with the button basher feature or the holding down 3 holds?

I was doing it with the button basher, could usually do it with 8 or 9 seconds to spare. Did you know everything about the game while you played it like the 10 knockouts and the sequence, refusing the trueskill repeat on jackpot, etc.?

I found out all that stuff after they were chipped, it didn't really matter while they weren't.

I had it for quite a while, quite a few hidden pubs had it original program for a good month or 2 before it got fixed and I always found them full. Around central London it was tougher, kept finding them quite low.

I knew this beore it was chipped, made a few quid on it, no-one i knew was using button basher, mobile phone + follow me.. (afaik the hold down was worked out AFTER the empty went widespread)

refusing the trueskill repeat was something i found worked on the £25 not the £15

the 10 ko's was sometimes useful, although while using the empty i dont think it ever went that high i wouldnt be on the ko's)

did you know that using all nudges ment the machine couldnt switch to reel-blasts or ko's? that came in VERY helpful at the time.

exchanging on £5 if it was reasonably happy usually ment starting on 2 kebabs and it quite often naturally gave the 3rd.

yes you're right Spyder. Especially about using up the nudges, you could get the barcode quite often like that.

Ah yes had one of these in arcade that you could empty. But they got funny in the end and it took them a bit long to chip it.

Yes but Donna Kebab was different at the top. You might of hit the wrong amount Mr Tommya. I did not know about hold all 3 on barcode back then but not many people did anyway. I was not good at button basher so i took the bar code where it went along the amounts at the top and just hit the £15.

I had a spicy kebab just a week or so ago. Nearly brought a tear to my eye, and it went for £50.

I had a spicy kebab cost £50 once. He was closing and i was desprate for a hot snack. He had to open back up and reheat and cook it. Was a well spent £50 at least i did not go hungry!

Who ever got a phone call then when doing follow me? Could have just used a calculator now you think about it, before the hold down obviously.

Those Doner Kebab was a cross between KK & Austin Powers.
That death on an invincible was notorious for players.
Neil from Margate had an invicible on one and was determined to go for a Mega. I wanted to just take a normal top as there couldn't have been more than fifty in the thing anyway.

After ages going round, a ? Gives roll even . . . . Odd!

Eeee-eeya-eee Eeya Eeya Eee!

"It can't do that!" he says.

"Well obviously it can as it just did!"

On P1 King Kebab follow me would freeze on £10.
They fixed it, and the empty still worked but I preferred to hit £15off crazy cash because you got no jp sequence and the bar code would occasionally hold.

Yes the bar code feature where it went along the amounts at the top? It would land on the next amount along sort of taxi style.
