£125, £150 or £160 can b e £70 or even £50 they have no hopper size it depends on what the owner wants it to hold!

I think the threads keep getting locked because they too often start to veer into discussions of fairly unethical issues - like the chap who advocated kicking a Paragon to reset the hopper size (!). In any case, the discussion is quite dull.

How long did it take you to win £122? A pal spent two hours playing an unchipped TPTP (the only time I've seen it done) and he only won c. £50! Were you in the boozer for four or five hours?!

that'll be me. i locked it because the replies were becoming less and less constructive and discussing immoral methods of altering how a game or cabinet is played.

i will continue to be a right twat if other threads go the same way. and if any individual post is in a breach of common sense, it is not in the spirit of fruitchat and it will be removed.

Its possible to play off 13 games in a minute if you are quick, so that £6.50 a minute meaning every 4 minutes it'll be buzzed up enough for a £10 win.

So its perfectly feasible to get £100 out in 45-50 mins, providing you are not being surveilled.....

'Its possible to play off 13 games in a minute if you are quick, so that £6.50 a minute meaning every 4 minutes it'll be buzzed up enough for a £10 win' - thats very strange to play off games to generate a win --unless there is a way of generating free games with this game.

I'd be surprised if Istenem reacted to this discussion, its not illegal, and is now firmly in the past. Switching machines off via whatever means is something to be frowned upon, and therefore worthy of censorship. Anyone needing to deploy such methods is either not bothered about the repercussions/in need of the money to fund another addiction.

I'd be alot richer if I went round turning off V 1,2,3,4.01,4.02,4.03 paragons, but I can't be bothered, its not worth the exposure.

The turn off paragon subject is something I simply won't do either, bad enough plugging an ape, a paragon takes 14 years to turn back on

I did it once, and it seems more like 14000 years. Plus my acting skills aren't up to scratch, making fake phone calls or leaning against the machine while asking my mate how work is going/his wife and kids are to distract attention as it loads back up is not for me. Especially when I get puzzled looks back as he's unemployed and has no wife or kids.

I love the fake phone call, also when plugging an ape me and a mate looked at it puzzled, as the barwoman was looking quizzically at us, we kept saying stuff like

"what the fuck? I hope out bank is still there..."

"It's fucked up, whats going on?"

freedom of speech, responsibility of action.

in the c. 50 pubs i go to, about half of them know exactly what i drink, i don't and can't keep a low profile because i am so very ugly.
as for turning off a machine; i wouldn't do it for gain but i do do it if the coin slot is buggered so i can play the thing. it has to be a worry if brushes and tar get involved.

the skill of SWP should be something that nobody else in the pub could do. deliberately killing 80 free games for a free JP is not a skill.
as i understand it, the C$/CR ruses do rely on an exact skill, not a core skill for most SWP folk but still something which joe schmo can't do. but free credits on TPTP undermines real talent.
