  1. Never one of my faves that machine - its just wierd.
  2. Now that you have donated, its loads of fun downloading just a few at a time anyway and playing them to death! Welcome to the site BTW - enjoy!
  3. Which means it probably would work - but for no purpose
  4. The even stopping on even was a theme on a lot of Barcrest machines. I can't think of any other great time out examples like this though Some later machines in £25 era - the darts games like Yabba Dabba had a Reel KO feature where if you could hit a 12 it was JP - I guess that would time out from a set number. I could hit the 12 nine out of ten anyway so never tried to learn it.
  5. Best thing about the emulator is this sort of thing. I mean my entire play last night was for doing something different - and look what I found...
  6. Its not that easy - cos you would have to know what all the time outs are (it wont stop on a 7 or higher if you manually hit it) And its not the easiest feature to land on anyway. Same session - I left it to time out on a 5 - but it came back to 5.
  7. Ideally playing this tonight, and set myself a mission - for me one of the best things about emulation - I can play silly beggars with stuff. Anyway - the decision was get to the bank limit by only taking end of trail JP's (not even nudge pot or 147 nudges) or any of the last four features plus autocollects on last orders. So - Pound a round - the first of the four features. First time I took it I tried to hit a number above 6 - just to see. It kept spinning after i hit and stopped on a 5 - £5 win. The second time however, I collected with a 6 showing and let it time out. It landed on 12 - and put £12 in the bank! I pretty sure it did not credit bank either. Very much illegal in the £6 JP days - anyone know of similar?
  8. I never really worried so much about methoding these in the wild. I had two - both in very busy wetherspoons - and they were just great full stop. I would often take 40-50 out of one and find it full again the next day - time after time; so I just took whatever they offered.
  9. Hi I just use V20.1 - it runs at least 95% od the stuff in both downloads and legacy downloads so the few it doesn't run I don't worry about. Happy fake slotting.
  10. £15 Barcrest and JPMs - especially the latter - some amazing games like Cracker, Impulse, Red Alert, with lots going on.
  11. Good evening - and welcome back
  12. One of our past admins is responsible
  13. Yeah - i think my £50 was just luck - cos it defo didn;t feel £50 happy. I like these - I think Reflex did well here.
  14. Hahaha - i havent managed to get it to do it at all on Spartacash -despite trying for a while last night. REgardless of steps or level of deal - or stake even! Still worth considering in wild though - unless you just on a force
  15. I have forced them a few times - I usually just play them for a few boards and a decent raise like £15 plus though.
  16. Thanks - TBH - i never even thought to check layouts - cos i have had pretty much everything downloaded the week its created for years now...
  17. Found this in the wild recently - a direct clone of Spartacash and the other Reflex whose name escapes me at time of typing. I had never seen it before. Can this one be emulated? - assuming we have roms. One thing this did - which i had forgotten - but is a handy emulator trick - is when you do take a Deal game - always have one or two steps handy - cos you can use them at the end to better your prize. This one - IRL - let me step a £1 win to a very nice nifty £50.
  18. Lots of £5 machines have insane streaks - and often - if machine were sited by less reputable organisations, or even individuals ( I know someone who made a living doing this - would site machines in takeaways and the like - splitting take exactly 50/50 with the venue) would very frequently have a sub optimum hopper capacity. This guy would site £25 machines - on a £50 hopper - so even a normal streak or JP repeat could leave it empty. I have had a £5 Rainbow Riches - in an arcade streak for a profit of £101. I have also had similar ridiculous wins on the 3 player Golden Ghost on £5 JP. Oh - and back in the day - Landlords would accuse you of anything - the amount of times i heard "You have the codes" from disgruntled regulars or the landlord was insane. What was a thing - when hopper payouts were introduced - was to shine a laser through the reels trying to hit the hopper activation when paying out so it lost count. Also early machines could be "sparked" at certain times (a tiny electric shock) to make things happen. Of course - both of these are on the very much illegal side of things.
  19. Haha Quality - thanks for sharing
  20. Thats the other deal.... I couldn't do this one either. My mate could - had one Wetherspoons with two! And they refilled them every morning for him.... madness.
  21. The GATW board defo stuffed it up IRl.... Was never a fan of this trick - hard work - but fun to try to do on the £35 emulated version
  22. A few.... not loads - and never as a "player" (bar one) Two spin in cashpots on £100 machines in my local sports club in the early 90's £200 Cash on the nile three or four times in my local casino - Mid to late nineties £200 Cops and Robbers in Pontins on the Cashpot method - as a player late noughties And my best - or luckiest - was a £1000 Club Money to burn - in my local casino - which I was only in cos my boss had failed to turn up for his own leaving do. I had maybe £40 on me. IRL - that machine had two hoppers one with £300 for normal wins and a back up with £750 purely for the JP. On a JP board, you could hear this hopper coming online - and moving inside the cabinet. Something a casino regular had told me a few months previously. Anyway - that night - i'm £6 in and I get a board, and hear the hopper move! Or have i imagined i??t.... nope 1000 shiny pound coins for me.... I was a semi pro on the £10 to £70 eras - and made a lot of money. There are some on the site who made tens of thousands playing clubbers from the 80's onwards. They have had more JP's than i have had hot dinners....
  23. I take it we mean normal AWP's - not clubbers then? What have you done to that poor little Crazy Chair?!?!? Quite a few DONDS play that badly though - or at least pay their RTP elsewhere, a lot of them are fairly adverse to be being played for JP's and won't let you. Some £4 machines - surprising difficult to JP, stuff like Action Bank / Action Cash / Action Note by Barcrest and a lot of BFM machines were programmed more as £2 repeaters than £4 tokeners - even though they have a JP win on the reels. Load one of them - you might be shocked how hard it is to get an actually JP.
  24. I started the Action Bank thread - cos it turns out its a £4 token JP (and that doesn't go in the bank) with a £100 bank limit - mad. A few us continued the post with a game suggestion, a loaded game state so everyone playing from same point, and some sort of challenge (usually total wins) on a game. So like £20 through the £5 20p play - Haunted house (which is a FANTASTIC machine to play for fun) I had a streak ready Maygays "Thats Life" which was fun to manipulate as well - so one of the ones I put up. Other games were listed - not sure which ones now It trailed off though, cos only 3 - maybe 4 - of us were making suggestions. @wearecity - Trivial Pursuit annoys the hell out of me! Red boards not giving Super JP for example.... You can add some manipulation of the Barcode, and the middle reel Triv Pursuit symbol features to your list as well though.....
  25. AFAIK - these were mechanical in nature - so no computer program - so literally nothing to emulate.....
