I'm not sure about what I'm gonna do once this game is over though...
You could always get together with 2 or 3 girls and form a pop group and start singing about a goddess on a mountain top!
There might always be £500 a week stuff available. I'm not disputing that. But there's too many players around after that. So your share of it will probably be something like £50 if you're lucky!!!
first of all , and without any anonymousity ? , annomos ? ,,,,, annomosity ? ,,,,,,,, fuck it , without any ill feelings ,,,,,, a warm and sincere heartfelt welcome back to ratty
now then , in answer to the op ,,,,,,,,,,, i already have a deposit down on a nice semi-detached park bench , fitted generously with knot holes and tastefully decorated in graffiti and puke , it has close links to the dole and is in close proximity of a bottle bank , where bottles of diamond white can be seen playing with shringes and dog shit , its in a very sought out area of the park , ,,,,,,,,,,,, im glad im in early , as im sure over the coming months the area will develop a lot of interest from perspective ex pro's ,,,,,,,,,, book early to avoid disappointment
Fruits are easy people are just lazy, Eastanglia can be a hard area but im not moaning i will just travel to make money. You can catch cashpots on the roads if you dont mind attacking them 250ish. Very rare you will find one at 300+ nowdays. Still great money to be made. You will find it hard if your playing mists and perfs in town/city centers. Get out of the big towns and its easy!
Not like theres many mists and perfects in towns anyhow... rare breed, down here anyhow.
Newer games are pretty wank in the main in fairness so I'd hardly say £500 weeks wil ALWAYS be there anfield, although certainly there at the moment given you put the work in, which I don't, but make up for with lots of POTS...
Some of the latest Bellfruit offerings aren't encouraging. As well as the trash such as rapid round/live/monopoly takeover there's the fact that you can tell they have left older methods there to keep you interested but designed the game around them. e.g. playing for a cp on bank on it can turn very nasty very quickly even when opening deal first board. What's that? A £6 box? Bye bye phones for £30. STD does the same thing too.
Just look at the top 3 rows there. Can any of those actually be called good machines? Obviously Eliminators and to a certain extent BOI, but they've been fixed. Compare to say megas and perfects which they were happy to leave playable. There seems to be a bit of a shift towards making machines a bit more casual friendly - easy to win lower/mid amounts but harder/more expensive to go for the bigger prizes.
bankers offer is shite, hard to upgrade the game to decent setups, hates eliminating, shite for coming back. Oh and about as easy to rip as cops and robbers with the life ie FORGET IT!
ok , on first inspection the new range of bell fruits doing the rounds do look dreadful ,,,,,,,,,,,, unless someone works out a decent method etc
but over half of em dont even have cashpots to fall back on when balls deep involved .
but this is one of the reasons i'll never be a top pro , because im not prepared to experiment with my money to find the latest glitch etc
i openly admit , im only a middle of the ladder pro , i rely on the info chain coming my way
i dont think things are anywhere near over though yet ,,,,,,,,,,,,, im still making a consistent living (made 142 yesterday) , and im still happy with anything 60plus for a days work,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, imo if you put the travelling in and the long hours , the money is still out there ,,,,,,,,,,,,,, my mileage demands i drive a small engine car ,,,,,,,,, fuck , i go london at least twice a week , a few home turf leicester bits , plus the odd searching day etc ( not to mention the days inbetween where tracy sends me on ebay runs ,,,,,, you can all keep your audi's lol )
i know the reality is hard , even if you plan your days right and dont lose your head/discipline , , some days you cant make a bean ,,,,, all pots are flat , and nothing else is offering , wasting £x per pub on board tests n drinks , food fuel etc ,,,following a thousand other players around , its tuff,,,,,,,, some times you have to take a loss day on the chin .
but overall , its still ok , it only usually takes one or two decent results per day , and all your expenses are covered plus a 50bag
i think a lot of people moaning , cant slog out the whole day until one of them results fall into place ,,,,,,,,,,, and go on tilt with something they shouldn't toooo early.
chins up lads ,,,,,,,,, who knows what the 100's will bring us ? ( if they ever materialise lol)
