[Astra machines randomness]

I have noticed before on a Double Cash layout that on a particularly RAM I had (and I would keep reverting to), that on the 4th spin it would always nudge for Bars with the Double Cash. I thought it might be a one off and never thought about it again.

However, I now have a RAM for the new Twin Pot layout by DAD (thanks for that, love this era of Astra machines) that will always offer 4 nudges (next spin) and a hold on the first go. Hold reels 1 and 3 and it will nudge for the Twin Pot feature which will then go for £5 with a repeat of £3 and a further repeat of £6. Every time! It's as though it has preplanned the next 4 spins.

Does this sound familiar to anyone? Maybe it is just the nature of compensated machines that something is triggered in the code and will therefore always be triggered?

I've attached the GAM and RAM files if you'd like to try it for yourself.

The mention of Stampede reminded me of a picture I took in Coral Island in Blackpool, sometime in the late 1990s I think, the meta data says 31/10/1997 but not sure if this is correct as it was taken with a film camera(!)

There is a picture of a Stampede, the one that is 2 to the left of it is a 777 Heaven I remember that was £10 all cash with 10 repeats round the perimeter - never saw it go all the way but was an interesting idea...
