Fruit Machine Chat

Hi all,

I've been reading the forum and have read a couple of references to a post on this forum where there is some sort of answer list or system for Football Crazy, and as a result Football Crazy has vanished from most quiz machines. I know a machine however which still has this game, and it is quite heavily played.

I thus have 2 questions:

1) Will this be an updated version where this list no longer applies?
2) Where can I find this list

Thanks for any help

There was indeed a list, and it may even still be available on an old post on here, but it wouldn't be that lucrative for two reasons:

(i) the game can protect itself very well, in that it can only offer 25 points per answer and want 500 points to win £1 and then a similar jump for each subsequent prize

(ii) after about 1000 points, even when the game is in a good mood, you start to get general categories like 'All About Football', where the answers can be taken from any of the other categories (or may even be taken from a separate list entirely)

In other words, you won't get rich playing this one!

One other point - this game appears on the current release of one of the main machines (the Indego) so you haven't actually uncovered a rare beast in machine terms.

I've searched the forum for the list but can't find it

We don't play it all that often, usually just in our lunch break. We're generally quite decent at it anyway and usually make a small profit from it. It seems to be one of those games that when it's being nice, it's very nice.
