Crikey, that is a new low if they do bounce on Skill bonuses.

This highlights a worry that I've had for a little while now. I've a niggly little feeling that the manus (especially Reds) have purposly built in 'signs' on their machines that let most players know 'obviously' that they are close to a streak. That's all well and good, but have they now set the seed that they are going to rip out of the ground and leave us all wondering where it went wrong.

Maybe I'll be better explaining it using an example. We all know that when you are offered four shots on DNA and red exchanges, you are only a few bob away from a top, that may well go £50 or £75.
What if they now release a sneaky 'chip' (I do hate that word!) that quite often offers you four shots and red exchanges, but doesn't actually mean squat about how well the machine is playing. We'd all lose a shed load of money (at first*) methinks... :(

That's what I meant about the Skill Bonus 'miss'. (It may well have just been a slight error on MJDs part) But say now this machine frequently offers Skill Bonus, but always jumps off of NR. How long before we realise that we are not just suddenly 'guff' at hitting Skills, but the machine has led us into chasing it because we think it's 'well due'.

I'm probably getting a bit paranoid about it all, but a manu only has to take one glance on here and realise that we will plough forward on any machine that is showing 'the signs'. I guess if it did happen, we'd adapt somehow and not let it trick us.**

But food for thought, erm, I thought...

SA was buzzing its Titties off earlier..
All the features red bar one, 99 Nudges, £10 Nudge Win, everything....


So what did I go and do......


Took that Notation Feature, Gave a tenner... Next board, £10 Nudge win and 99 Nudges again, Upto super streak.... Took it, £10 again..
Next board upto a fiver and given a 7..... Took the Fiver..

All in all £25 from about £3

I just didn't have the balls to go for it really, because I knew it would kill me, Then id be on Tilt, then it would go dead, then It would rob me of every penny I had on me....
Perhaps not, but the way my luck is at the moment......

Don't know if you know this mate.....but the notation number of steps is determined by the middle reel number. I think 6/12 are £25?

Yep 6 and 12 and £25 as are 3bonus and 10bonus which turn the notes red 8)

MJD surely if it did 99 nudge and ARB1 twice a force should have been on? I know I would.

I agree, the force was on, But I just cant trust it. Pulsation is better, just the one gamble..

Just persist with it mate. It might lose 2/3 times on SS, but just plough on!

I have had some very strange things happen lately
Meaning a loss a few times when the m/c was 'there'

LD £35er offers Find The Pea Red, and is gambling past £5 first board
Costs £100 for top does £35
Costs another £30 for another top does ££5 and dies on its arse
A £60 hit and NR was offered after £15 in

Invincible £35 offers the only red feature which was toggle
NR offered within £10 and going past £5 within 2 boards
Costs £80 for top does £35
Costs £20 for the next, does £35 again and dies

Also on the 50p mega spin one's be carefull of it letting you have red lines and you think its 'there'
The SnS can do you
I know for a fact i hit one correct the other day, and the slip was a disgrace
Yes before anyone says they do, i know that, but this was much worse
It just did not want to give it

The best Red by a country mile is CCP
I also find Piggy Bank £35 to be good at the minute
Invincible £35 is up there too, when its not been trashed
