Hasn't Betch seen the chip as well?

I don't understand tho how project can claim to offer a game with progressive pots, that reset upon exit of the game!! Can u imagine rainbow riches etc doing this?? They'd be a fuckin riot in every gala and Mecca up and down the country!!!

Also, why did they bother doing it to the other game? Many of which sit on £499.10 enticing people to brain out over and over?

George and Robs agenda was to put people off playing them by lying that there was a rechip, but they didn't think it through very well. If they had said they had played one that climbed happily to £450 but then stopped throwing in shields for a few hundred or something, and they eventually took a heavy loss that would have been plausible, but claiming it resets the pot value on exit isn't really going to have the desired effect is it, because if you were worried about a fix you'd go in and out of the game to check before getting involved.

Nice try.

If the battery was flat it would reset the pots on powering up, because there is insufficient power for the machine to 'remember' what the pots are on, and would just reset to default amounts. It wouldn't power up properly and then decide to reset upon exiting the game.

And the moral of the story children is....

If you are going to make up some bullshit story about rechips then make it plausible, and have an answer when you are challenged about it, else nobody will believe you and you will regarded as a liar from that point onwards.

Actually, fuck it i'll get on the bandwagon.

I played a chipped one this very morning in an arcade in Drivel-On-Sea, it was such an awful experience that it left me shaking in fear of ever playing one again. Once I had regained my composure I went to the next location and found one on £486.40, but recounting the SHEER HORROR (capitals for extra emphasis) of my last session I just couldn't bring myself to play it, and briskly walked away breathing a sigh of relief. People may wonder why I didn't play it, well it was too risky you see. After all it may have been chipped. Having walked to a safe distance away from the machine I suddenly felt a surge of euphoria coursing through my body. I think it is the sort of delightful feeling only a man who has walked away from a potentially chipped Jackpot King can feel. I still dread to think what would have happened had I took it on.

So there, a cautionary tale for those JPK enthusiasts out there.

Don't play them.

Ever.


"What does the rechip do to affect the game then?" I hear you ask, a not unreasonable question.

And the answer........





Nice weather we're having for this time of year.

Is this because they don't like frequenting pubs that much, so they thought they'd try and put people off going in the more friendlier locations (arcs/services)

bit sad if true and seeing how JG's a mod on here, he really should be here given an explanation. If they done so well out of astra why they bothered about a game that you rarely see in three figures anyway, unless it reset three figures.

not hard to video one going out and back in and sticking it on youtube.

I highly doubt there's a chip as a couple arcs west have got these and they update and chip super early and there's no funny business going on with there units.

Trolling? Nope just joining in with board discussion. Having an opinion like everyone else. No one has to agree with me and most don't, doesn't stop me having one tho!
