MikeyMonster Posted November 14, 2022 Report Share Posted November 14, 2022 So - just for fun - MFME challenges! I will start you off with the £4 token JP, Barcrest game Loads A Money (which is decent fun actually) Challenge - get to the bank limit! (This MUST be the biggest x JP bank limit out there) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vectra666 Posted November 14, 2022 Report Share Posted November 14, 2022 That’ll take ages to get to 99.99 like action note it has a unlimited bank but this machine is very tight although I think I’ve “better” roms within pooks layout 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeyMonster Posted November 15, 2022 Author Report Share Posted November 15, 2022 (edited) The Limit Does Not Exist... After a determined evening........ But still no bank limit payout.... once you get here - bank continues to build up - but display sticks at £100..... no auto pay out....... bizzare.... (in case anyone cares - took £143 for £103.40 in caseh - plus two £4 wins which do auto pay!) ((It never offered a cashpot!))

wearecity Posted November 15, 2022 Report Share Posted November 15, 2022 I like the idea of MFME challenges. This was one of my favourite machines, back in the day, but definitely better roms than the one with the release are available, as pointed out by someone called Chopoholic many many many years ago. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m sure I put them in pooks release although percentage wise they’re still poor I remember quicksilver in mid 90’s I always played this one and nudge quest £20 lasted quite a while on nudge quest I remember getting two jackpot symbols for 20p they held the other dropped in for £4 then they held another three or four times never seen that again even via the emulator Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes - MFME challenges - possible but difficult is the key........ The ROMS are fair BTW - it gives a £10 (£2 repeating 4 times) every now and then - and on a 80% or so RTP as good as can be expected.

MPU_FIVE Posted November 15, 2022 Report Share Posted November 15, 2022 At first i was thinking, bloody tight arse machine, lower than 9 got an 11, played feature board and got the dreaded "Terrible weather - go home" square, but in the end,all I can say is thank you to "Joes Pub" which turned out to be a nice little earner! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so i guess my result is null and void... in case it isn't tho here's what i went for... By the way - I really wanted to do Showtime Spectacular (BellFruit) but the only MFME DX available was in the Legacy section which has layouts but no roms, - for some reason the roms i found for it play the game, but the sound roms which i got from the BFMulator version of this game do not play any sounds in the game even tho they are loaded in and play when going through the samples one by one... So if anyone wants to do an update - it looks like Showtime Spectacular is a candidate for it... Anyway I settled for this instead, £20 in, £31 out. Addams Family. Cheers, Gary.

MikeyMonster Posted November 15, 2022 Author Report Share Posted November 15, 2022 We do really need to be doing this from same state.... I could pretty easily manipilate an Addams family so its 20 in - £75 to £120 out.... but.... will do it with my current program and see what occurs.... Showtime spectacular - There is a working one in the legacy (Or maybe i got it from DADS) but no sounds as far as i recall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MPU_FIVE Posted November 16, 2022 Report Share Posted November 16, 2022 @woodsy@MikeyMonster Ahh i didn't know this one had tricks to it... I am just (and always have been) just a casual player that played fruities just for the sheer fun of it. Ok so in future a file shall be posted so we're all on same page. I'll be back later to post my Showtime Spectacular file (i'm on my Linux machine at the mo) in case the one MikeyMonster didn't contain the sound files... mine does but the game playing is almost mute... i say almost because on the feature, there are some instances where it will play a sound... i think jackpot is one... wierd eh!

MikeyMonster Posted November 16, 2022 Author Report Share Posted November 16, 2022 The link above is the same.... (mostly mute!) Back in the day - when all Spoons machines had the volume turned off.... Bubble and Squeak would still play the JP jingle (nothing else at all). I streaked one and the manager came over and asked why a muted machine was making sounds - he thought I had done something to it! Its not that Addams family had tricks per se... but if not playing from same file..... you could just lose a couple of hundred first before starting the £20 challenge clock.....

CALLING ALL NEWBIES AND CASUALS?? maybe we can get some new forum blood into the game challenge thingy.. or maybe now i'm over caffeinated haha!! either way i'm surprised @Sarkymark77 isn't having a blast at this bit of fun.. here's my start point maybe we eventually will decide on the best judge factor haha.. my drift from start point is shown, im playing @dad's excellent version of which there are also other greats too!! it's actually a game i mistook for the lottery themed one with the wheel whose name i cannot recall!

woodsy Posted November 16, 2022 Report Share Posted November 16, 2022 @MPU_FIVE @MikeyMonster What a game! i put in £20 profit £11.40 had no idea what to do but took £5 on the cash ladder* twice instead of kicking on as played as a casual with intent to win our comp haha, then got offered a pink box which had a jp in it** was incredibly lucky to get a skill stop off betty's bonus*** that i hit the top level on (fluke) and the only square was a 1 to lucky numbers for higher then onto jp, no repeat. * so as i've never had any real experience of this game i thought that the cash ladder start amount and play kinda reminded me of how donkey kong played?? ** is this the first example of hidden boxes? and did they always have the same amount in in the arcade so once you had them you knew them? *** this also reminded me of donkey kong as much of the game did in some part.. also of course similarities to doctor who but thats more understandable of course. anyways i bloody loved it. so @MikeyMonster i do believe it's your turn to choose a game for the £20 challenge or similar if you have a challenge in mind.. 2 living the dream Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This machine used to be in the Ship inn , Sittingbourne back in the mid 1990's... The PINK box is Jackpot... they are always the same value... think Blue box is £2 for example.

Cool... I'm sure somewhere on this site, (possibly in the video showcase category) there was the original 50 credit challenge which was similar to what is being done here... think people would do a youtube video of it so we could watch what happened...

MikeyMonster Posted November 16, 2022 Author Report Share Posted November 16, 2022 Red box is £3 on Showtime....so in its early days - in Arcades you always collected red or pink (£3 is odd - did this launch as a £3/£6?) I loved this game as well - often fire it up in the emulator for forty or fifty quid. Anyway....... next up from me is... is osmething very slightly different - 25p £5 all cash.....Haunted House 25p £5 1440p WDX Ross.zip This machine is way behind RTP (and i not been knocking it back - this is through proper play!) so should be lively £20 from this starting point hopefully..... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
