Drive to epping mate! Tube it from there! Easy location to get to and straight on the central line!

Its an idea, sure we've all got good areas that are fire

why not swap?

Locations
machines
Other players in said areas

it could work for the benefit of all. 2 members swap areas till it becomes an issue then swap with 2 other members for there areas. gives everyone somewhere fresh. Get to an area know whats where what to expect in any given venue

in principal it could work but i doubt enough people could trust one another

As soon as somebody gets banned from a pub around here, then there's fire for the next person at their first visit. Thats Norfolk/Suffolk for you! Plus there's always the trust issue anyway.

My understanding is the the three yearly review is going on now and that BACTA have sumbmitted the case for £100/£1 max play Cat C. And also for other stuff like Cat D increases from £5 to £10, and the Cat Bs that are presently £250 to £500.

i'm very interested in the increase to 10 pounds for cat d machines. imagine all that mid nineties stuff re-invented!

Three year rule ? Jackpots went up from £25 to £35 in 2007 and then to £70 in 2009 (I think). That's just two years.

they always used to have a triennial review though apart from that time i think harry

I wonder how that works, will the arcades suddenly have a load of converted £5 machines to £10?

Theoretically it wouldn't take a lot of effort to code if all you have to do is just double everything surely.

£25 was 2002
£35 was 2006 (i thought, might be wrong..)
£70 was 2009
