Agreed.

although receiving "survive" at all is a good indication you aren't a miilion miles away from a jackpot.

Did you force after this board? i;m guessing it only cost about another £10-£15 for a red JTRAR?

(Got £25 on a red MM the other day, gutted! reforced with that £25 and it gave another red MM which went for £75, any explanations? i.e if it was ready to give £75 why not just give it first time?)

As someone who preaches the 'first-spin-2-equals-IM' theory, I must say I've still never seen it do anything other than go to the top feature.

However! I also preach the theory that any board offering red Evil Streak/Swinging Streak (and other equivalents) isn't going to let you down en route to top feature, BUT twice last week I had boards offering red Swinging Streak and died on the next mystery. First time I've ever seen it do that - so I shall backtrack on my past assertions!

Had an excellent result on this just recently. I put a £1 in, but it didn't register and I couldn't retrieve the pound by using the reject button. The engineer was in the pub, (fiddling with a Manic Muncher!) and popped over and said he was just about to fix that. So, stood around for a bit supping apint, and he got me my pound back, and also one for another chap who was now playing the MM.

Anyway, he tested it a bit, and it was fine, so he locked the machine up and said 'Take it away son!'. To cut an already over-long story a bit shorty, first pound - Red Hot Picker, got two Super shots on a '1', naff all, higher, fourth shot gave JPTRR (red, of course!) and it rolled £75...! :shock: Needless to say the rattle of the coins alerted the attention of Mr. Manic Muncher, who didn't look best pleased...

...I sat back and enjoyed every last drop of my pint. ;)

I know these can be nasty (been stung plenty before!!) but this time, I was in charge! ;)

Fair play Matt, good win there. Had the first spin to a 2 the other day and it did indeed go on to give JJ.

these are great.

Countless times you dont even have to do anything, you get put in the middle and watch the cashpot take off........ Collect, Thankyou, I will be back tomorrow.

But dont think its automatically worth a force when it does this, risky biz!

Do any of the features on normal or super pay 10+ or anything close to a jackpot, never seem to do well on these machines and was wondering which features are good for a quick steal.

These machines have the worst features ever, but Warped has a feature called Rocket Money ( I think) which is a number stepper and when played at 50p the numbers are doubled. As Warped is a clone of this I'd assume the feature is on it under a different name.

If its not ready none of the features are worth anything anyway.

Elvis Lives normal is £5+, Disc Jockeys red is about a fiver, Rock Star red is a fiver usually. If its offering any £10 ready features then just chase it. Swinging Streak/We Will Rock You and Hot Rod are the best 3 as far as i can remember.

I got a red Jugglin Jackpots (on jugglin jackpots, obv) that only went for £35. Annoyed me a little bit. What's the point in making a feature, that pays the jackpot anyway, Super and proceeding to pay just a flat jackpot.

Daft machines haha.

Did end up with about £50 from £6 in though so not too bad.

Played a terrible clone of this today, £35 pot called knocked out or similar i think, avoid like the plague, makes JPTRAR look like a great machine (plays even worse, shocking i know but true).

Knockout, is it that Gold Rush clone that's out?

Had the £75 JTRNR once, quite rare, normally just £50 or a flat £25.

Yep, It's a Knockout is an exact clone of GR - but seems a tad tighter. Had a red KO go for £70 off of £60 the other day :| but certainly felt a lot more 'cunning' than the older versions...
