Yup, I've now seen two different cabinets with all lights out, only the alpha working and the Cashpot LED on the top board.

I'd still rather punch Ant and Dec's lights out, rather than see them switched off though :wink:
This machine may at times offer a choice where the player has every chance of bankruptcy

A lovely £300 into a Poker Face this afternoon :x

£35 shot off £29, didn't go in...£63 for flat, then the problems. Ready all the while after, but no good streak. 7 rechases witha mix of £35/£70 tops before a huge gap to £295 in. £105 top followed by £105 top again next board, few small wins to tidy up and i was happy with £80 down. Shows the trouble you can get into if you play these beasts!

Most annoying thing on these is i've had ones nowhere near as glaringly ready do £105s off £50 odd, yet this one was just flying all the time but wouldn't go in. As it's in a pretty quiet arcade i reckon we're looking at 2014 for a recovery :P

I'm sure these are harsher than older globals, they often do £70 tops rather than £105's, and generally cost the earth to get em...

could just be a coincidence I suppose...

Woah Matt, that is nasty, but I bet you're thankful that it double one-oh-fived, else that could have been a severe dent!

The one near me (that replaced a Monster Cash :roll: ) can be a bit of a pain too; appearing blatantly ready, but then proceeding to take a wedge before topping out. A 'top' board is obvious on this - usually from a 'level 2' start, it just continually goes to super shots, via 1s, 2s, 11s and 12s.

What's the best 'feature' on this (not that it'd be taken, but for afters / quick rip etc.) I've had 'Up the Antie' a few times, but I think there's one better than that?

Bottle It is the best one, with Up The Anite and Face Off the other 2 biggies. If it offers any of those you are involved, end of!

That's it 'Bottle It'... What does it entail, out of interest?

Never taken it, but i can only assume it would be the same as Evil Streak/Swinging Streak/Cash Crazed etc on its predecessor clones 8)

The news of Mattb losing on a fruit machine has left the fruit chat community reeling with devestation and shock.

As a mark pyne of respect, members have dedicated a two and a half days silence, on the Misc Manufacturer's forum to mark this sorrowful occassion.

Ok chaps, well respected, talk may resume once more.
