GATW Question

Post by Cf »

Not sure if anyone has tried this but is it possible to kill yourself whilst invincible?

Had my first of these the other day on LPDOND and i just kept hi/loing the shots so i could hit the mega streak. This worked, but I did wonder what'd happen if i kept going lower to force a 1 and then tried pressing lower again... or what'd happen if I tried taking more shots than it could give me... or if I took so long doing stuff it'd time out.

You can't kill yourself. Maybe if your force a question mark but nowadays they tend to just spin you in the boxes/shots you need for Mega.
It won't let you go lower than a 1 etc.

Yeah you can kill yourself on quite a few actually. COBing a GATW board on a DOND doesn't result in MS, you can skill yourself to game over on games media clones too etc....

Some idiot in a pub got a gatw on a deal wheel in bury, hit the deal wheel and just stood there, it timed out gave him nothing and just walked out! I managed to beat the barman to it, got the gatw then the wheel after!

loads of old machines could kill you, one that comes to mind is the original monty python, £5 jp, used skillstop to hit game over for a laugh cause hte shound fz are great, thought it might do something special.... wouldnt board, nudge or give a win for about £40... wasnt best pleased...

cob on deal or no deals can give you game over

and, if you collect shit wins/low down wins it can give you what you take...

but machines can give jp from "non-skill" features, even if you turn down the im

cant rememeber which machine, but i took a £1 spinner once to sack off an IM, and it span it in over and over for a whole jp amount.. not quite what i was playing for...

Are there any machines that do kill on IM without us having to deliberately do it for them? Such as the Vindaloot I mentioned earlier

some old IM used to time out if you didnt play it through fast enough.. stir crazy i think used to stop flashing...

also, there are semi-im boards on some machines, where you will get jp if you dont hi lo, or if you just keep pressing and it goes all the way..

donna kebab the clone of king kebab could kill u on a gatw board and also go for a 12 pound top of 3 kebabs. Lucky strikes and dartboard barcrest can die if u play the boards.
