Given there have been quite a few new games since this was last asked just wondered if it's time for a quick roll call of the latest jp-able and not jp-able games ...
It's clear that That's entertainment and scrabble have been done to death, but what about say- Legends of Darts? Barely mentioned. In fact I'm not even sure what the JP is on it. Or the Lyrics Quiz? Surely no-one has managed that yet- I got £2 out of it and it felt like a big achievement What about Caesars Palace? Or that jackpot pool game- anyone Jp'd it?
i've had the fiver out of the old pool game several times, not the new one though. i only get to a gamesnet once in a blue moon so not played the others.

We shall have to invent a quiz machine equivalent of "baring one's backside in Burtons' window" as that is what I will do if anyone ever JPs those two! Unless there is some secret to them that isn't immediately apparent then 6 wins of 50p (or maybe £1 I guess) seems to be your lot on Legends of Darts and as I've said elsewhere The Lyric Quiz is one of the hardest games that has ever been released - a question like "Which of these four lines comes last in Harvest for the World?" requires you to be able to 'sing' possibly the entire song in your head and find which of the four lines comes last. On most games that would qualify as a classic 'Your Game Is Now Over' spoiler but on The Lyric Quiz it's a bog standard question which you have to answer many of to win anything!
hmmmm, most confusing.i noticed that you'd done 2 of the 3 scrabbles in the wetherspoons nr. central station (not crystal palace) dmac and the last machine was dealt with whilst i was playing one of the other machines this evening. I asumed this was you but your post time suggests not.Anyone else here like to take the credit?

I demonstrated my (non-)powers of prediction here as last night the wife and I managed to JP Pub Quiz for the first time ever. Observations are:
(a) until the last round, the questions were ridiculously easy, and even in the last round, all were totally reasonable with a bit of thought]
Managed to JP Pub Quiz at lunchtime for the second time ever, and again no bonus feature was given, interestingly. Also managed to take £10 from Treasure Island on the same machine, so it was obviously, as properpro might put it, "raving".
