35's have taken over

I know im stating the obvious here, but there is only one pub around here that still has £25's in. I must of visited over 80 boozers and all of them have 35's. Does anyone have many if any £25's left in thier area? Not including arcades just pubs.

We've actually got a few £25's left around here. Funnily enough there normally from big suppliers (LL, EL etc). I think some smaller pubs just have a lower band of machines which includes older stuff (£25's, no changers, older fruit etc).

I still think that £35 is a strange Jackpot upgrade. I was kind of expecting fruits to go from 25p/£25 to 50p/£50

Odd.

Totally agree on the stake/JP change.

All stakes went from 25p to 30p around here just before the £35 come out. I was in the habit of complaining all the time that if they are 30p stakes the jackpot should be £30, a quid for each penny thats fair! i would be happy with that. But no! £35/50p stake. WTF.

Gone are the days of 4 spins for your £1. A time when forcing was that little bit easier and less time consuming.

Anyway the reason i ask is that ive been here for awhile now and have learnt and been told a lot from all of you on the forum for which i am very gratefull :wink: . 35's have always been the norm since me posting. Im no "pro player" but it comes to my attention that there seemed to be a hell of a lot more MT's, Tricks, tips, forcing methods etc etc for the older £25 machines.

Am i totally wrong and really dont have a clue whats going on? Is there not much going on with the £35's or is it still early days for them?

Its been rather quiet the last two days on here. :?

Edit. Sorry, and a Sting King Rich and Corrie.

There's also a nightclub that has 2 £15 JP's still.

Not even the nightclubs have 25's never mind 15's here.

Youve got loads around your way Gambo :shock: . Sounds like the land that time forgot.

The Castle pub is the main one I can think of. I remember when they had Red Arrow long after the majority of them disappeared.
