happy campers ?

Post by supersavo »

The "slightly older" extremes like round the bend, D&N etc have the cashpot streak, where the cashpot increments in large amounts and you will get top feature paying usually 50 or 75. This is based on amount of credits cycled thru machine.

However, Happy Campers & Blings & Queens have set amounts on the superboard so cannot do the large cashpot increments.

Does this mean that Extreme have removed the "cashpot streak" from the later clones totally, or it is still in there but shows itself in a different way ?

It is still there.....

On a buzzed one you'll get more reds at start, expecially on the supertrail cash. You can land on £3 red (£6 added) or the ? Cash red which can add £5+.

What Mattb said. It can also go invincible fairly early on into the board, or give it through nudges.

Did you take it, Dunhamzzz?

I've played this thing to death wondering if it's ever gonna offer it. And so far, it hasn't.

If you did take it, what did it do and how much did it pay?

Thanks for replies fellers.... obviously the happy campers i have played have not been streak-ready ( usually only try to nick a few quid with the setups or nudge steals.... no collect on ? is a pain, unless you are pushing it.

Happy to confirm ( not that you lot needed it ;-) ) that HC does the cashpot streak...gave £50 off top feature ( 5 heads lit) then next board was obviously still happy & gave £25 off cash side.

Managed to IOU one of these earlier. Banked about £68 odd from only changing £20 into coins. Ripped red sevens and melons in all that, along with some very generous bonus drops after boards.

Anyways, paying out and it stopped at £18. IOU and alarm, great. Luckily it was in megabowl and Mr Leisure Link was already there to help. Probably the most chipper cockney wideboy engineer you'll ever see! He'd been told it had already IOUed twice in the last few days and didn't bat an eyelid. Opened it up, no coins left as expected. Got into the cashbox, and topped 110 coins into the hoppers and left. No suspision, no nothing. I just played dumb and said i got lucky (as you do). Gave me my £18 and walked off, then i just carried on and skanked another £10 out of it. :D 8)

If i'd got any engineer with an ounce of savvy that Happy Campers would be gone in a few days. Luckily with old meathead doing the rounds it may be safe! :D

Oh dear - managed to IOU one of my HC again for £19 :x

For some reason every coin was backing (it wasn't full), so eventually it just ran out of money. Paid me up and everything, but thats about the 6th IOU on there in a week. Please don't get rid of it!

funny you should say that, i myself have a campers constantly backin even when you collect the bank.

i always key it too see whats in it, even if it was empty i would play it if its lively. just build the bank then inform the staff they can't argue with an iou.

This is a big problem for Leisure Link, I had one iou on me in my pub and called the LL guys out, he said that a lot of them have the same error. Its a coin mech error, easily fixable but time consuming
