hotwire update

Post by cool »

In the style of defending the indefensible , fighting talk , I COULD report that the latest additions to the hotwire conversion a dancing quiz , a foxy quiz , and chucking people of a cliff quiz are a brilliant addition to the fat spanner stable that will attract a broad cross section of the pub going public into playing swp's...............

I could but in reality the offering is unmitigated cack with each game having a current top prize of £4!

Well, call me easily pleased, but I thought the games were no worse than average. In installation mode at least, they seem fair. I would of course like to see a top prize (not jackpot, never jackpot) of more than £4, but as Istenem says in another post, if that's how SWPs can get on with HMRC breathing down their necks then we'll just have to make the best of it.

One of the bonuses in the tug of war game is 'tug a man off'. How we laughed.

I was playing in Brighton where they will be queuing in the aisles to be tugged off.

Depends which way you look at the new FS games. Have to say I won't be playing them much more since it appears that Pub Quiz has gone to heaven.

I must admit to liking Star Wars though. I assume punters do as well since they always seem to be stuffed full of cash unlike Monopoly.

Over the Brink game nice. Easy £4. Strictly Game also nice - stick to the questions and take the £4. Waste of time messing around with Phrases/Skill, since they disappear as soon as you get near the dough.

Sad to see the demise of Pub Quiz, but the machine I got on (wasn't clean, had been updated about 2 weeks previously) was paying. Totalled about £40 after a lesiurely hour, and could have pushed for more if I was of a mind to.

It's a shame there aren't more of these about - they've got one thing going for pros in a very, very, big way.
Stupid punters. Telly all the week, screw the wife Saturday
