When will this "Deal or No Deal" craze end? When will we finally be rid of this format of game? When will those jealous ******s in pubs/arcades stop giving us hell? When will be finally not be accused of tampering and actually get some respect for what we do?

The truth, I fear, is that it will never happen.

Can anyone think how we could stop the abuse?

Chucking money behind the bar isn't the solution, it actually just proves you're in there to win and that you ALWAYS will!

I expect they will stop making DOND's when people stop filling them up. £70 machines have zero amusement. You might as well go into a casino and have £100 on a colour or a number.

Sadly, I can't see that happening any time soon. Its a universal thing now, this stupid secret "what's in your box" format. The general public who play them are just mugs. Mugs will always be mugs, so it stands to reason that we're stuck with this crap.

We need some bored fucker to think up a quiz show that will take the country by storm and then we may well be on to some very good times again.

aye in my local theres that new DOND, a barcrest, and something else, the DOND was just getting casual play all night, i dont think the barcrest even got played in the couple of hours i was there

So true.

If they were still £20 I'd be in every night playing them.

As it is you can go through £30 in about 10 minutes (and that's on 25p a play)

Even Electrocoin have got in on the act

Ah! Electrocoin! That name brings back those nice memories. So long ago now - so sad
