Agreed but most are on test and most are failing.They are releasing about the same ammount of new machines as Barcrest atm which says it all.

Half of Red's machines were in the bookies when they bothered with awp's.Thats alot of sites gone and a lot of Red machines on Ebay !

Lab ect is selling for £100 atm.

I'm not the biggest fan of Notempole though.

Talking about Bookies, does anybody else feel like they've been hit in the wallet since the removal of AWP's from LBO's?

Only just come across your request mate. Not been online much recently. I've not heard anything about this but I'll have a dig around see what I can find.

Couldn't get a pic of the game, as its not in the best position and the barman was watching me.... however, they have felt the need to put on instructions on the bottom door!

Basically, there are 6 independent 16 stage trails, with a BONUS every four positions. These are added to via colour coded numbers on the reels (if you can tell the difference between Red and Orange, you're doing well).
There are no reel wins as such - reel wins award steps which step the reels and add to the trails. It is more than possible to get three blue bars, get 6 steps, and NOT get the chance to win any cash....

Reaching more than 1 bonus at once gives a Super Bonus.

The only way to win cash is via a barcode feature, or completing one of the trails. Once a trail is completed, you get 1 free spin around a cash circuit. The value you land on is knocked out (added to a bank) and you can gamble or collect.

You get 1 life per completed trail - or, if you collect, you get a repeat chance for each trail still left.

Its nothing like a normal red. There is SO much going on that you may as well just keep thumping START and hope it gifts you a trail completion. I've won out of it each time i've played it - so someone must be losing a fair bit on it. It gifts jackpots - probably because skillfully getting one out is nigh on impossible.

Interesting to see if it works... Least its original, if not confusing at the start!

Crikey, that sounds like something very different! Would be interesting to see one of those! Does it have a good old fashioned 'top streak' that's achievable from any means?

Looking forward to seeing a pic when available.

Yeah certainly sounds interesting! well done red for not cloning

Potential with this 1 is amazing... Think about it.... 6 trails with a chance of EACH trail awarding £35

Do the math boys!

Barry Trotter · Post by **Barry Trotter** » Wed Aug 20, 2008 9:08 pm

Legally, only 3 repeats are allowed on £35 anyway - so there won't be any £210 streaks on it. DJJPurple - you should know that!

And when i got £35 from the Dead Cert feature, i didn't get any repeat offered. There are no obvious streak features, top features, or any obvious ways of awarding multiple jackpots.

I can't upload the photo i have, as the uploaded seems to not work.

Sorry

Had a dabble on this at the weekend, very confusing i thought (being drunk did'nt help) on this you have no choice but to take the steps (it auto collects them) and the fruits on it take you further up one of the 6 trails all of which have 4/5 bonuses (i think) on them, the idea is to get to the top of any trail and you then get shots on a wheel which i did manage to achieve, it gave £1,£1,£1 then £5, so i think if you hit an amount that you've already knocked out you lose, i did'nt give it the chance to do this and took the £8.

not a clone of anything, and a new idea from red, might catch on.

awful machine , played one today ill get you a pic when i pass next time.

best thing to do with these is leave them well alone .. i forced one that was full and had a hefty bottom earlier £82 for £35 ... doesnt offer repeats and no way of telling if there rolling ... cant see a method to win ... you cant force you cant collect the value as it £20 boards regular ( did to me ) complete waste of fucking time ... if reds go down this road ill have to find some barcrests or summat or quit altogether.

maybe i was very unlucky but i think not ... very clever way of offering the average punter a chance of winning something decent whilst keeping players in the dark... if thats what it was designed for then well done RED gaming.
