The 'Free' Extreme Board

theoak · Post by **theoak** » Thu Jan 18, 2007 4:19 pm

I got the so-called 'free-board' today (really dont like that term!), came from nowhere; machine was hard to even break even on the milk. just wondered when it does the jumping pots does it ALWAYS ALWAYS go for a top? Secondly, I got to £75 off the bucket loads feature, then it autocollected and the hopper jammed; and had to be switched off; losing my chance at the last £25; does it ever/often give the full £100?

..Just in case your interested this is actually the third time I have played since this (

) and the woman working there gave me £20 in tokens due to loss of the top feature, which I recycled through and got about £17 back.

went on an s16; blue lagoon with my 90 odd pounds, got another £25 off very little, went on cashino s16 with another 20, 5 in, got another £15 off three cash machines, then!!!...... three roulette wheels for the fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuull £500.. SOMEone wants me to start gambling properly again!

about £550 up for my lunch break then.

Away mate don't be daft, you stopped for a reason remember. Just because you won £550 doesn't change anything.

What will happen when she finds out you're still playing??

depends if i buy her a massive present or not. No, thanks for the kick up the arse, Ive been pretty proud of myself cutting down so massively and she knows ive played a couple of times since too. just made the mistake of bringing my cash card today. getting there though, gettign there.

having a big win can sometimes be the worst thing that can happen, gives you more money too play with and ultimately lose on the s16's.

I'm sure mate, it's just asking for confirmation on something on a fruit machine looks a bit suspect for someone trying to quit :P.

Hope you carry on though.

I've had £25 off the free board as well, can't remember who said it was guaranteed £50+, but i had £25 before. If it comes in the middle of nothing spectacular it is always pot as far as i know. I've had a fair few and they've all gone all the way. Sometimes it'll drop you on lose, but the button lights up so you can carry on.

If you're going for the force then you can get a £12 cashpot say and it'll bump you off, and come back and give you it after.

it can go £25 twice.

Had an EXTREMEly thick extreme today (see what I did there, I play the words and the fruits).

It was keyable and sort of typical norwich 10 in for 15 if ur lucky.

Got a board, taxi'd to 3 shots (to induce the superboard) Super board came round while I had a no-lose, span me to my third symbol on a 1. Went higher for the 4th, alas to a 12 ! Stupid stupid stupid machine. Lower for 5th and no-lose for the IM.

Coupla thoughts/questions on this:

Has anyone had more than two of these boards in a row? Had two once, followed by a third board which jumped from 80p to summut like £5 with one spin on superboard, but then died. The board before gave TWO of the light-ups to save the board.

What are the chances that all extremes are VERY lengthy emptiers? following on from that other post 'buzzing off boards', which i entirely agree with, ive had it a few times when you get the free boards, in the middle of practically recycling £20 worth of wins, and looking like it's going nowhere..

If the first one only goes 25
(which i cant ever recall having)
then the next board should do the
big jumps again as these always
do a 50 minimum, also, the fact
that u said u had '2' strike a light
thingys must b an indication,
ive never seen this twice...

only ever had it once, and few people believe em, it seems so rare. I thought 'why have i died?! this board should have gone for jp! (assuming taht the button wouldnt light up a second time) but then it lit again

was on bucket loads, if you give a fuck.

Oh, last thing, when milking the extremes, what low feature(s) do you take? I find round the bend the best as a boost to the first inward arrow, lands on a feature which i've never had less than £4 on and up to £8, I forget it's name but it is just a random amount multiplied by a number on the reel and it doesnt affect the after-board set-ups. Do the others have this feature too?

Mattb · Post by **Mattb** » Wed Jan 24, 2007 11:42 am

It's called get a grip on round the bend (and bucketloads i think). It's on all the extremes though, called laughing gas on D&N, and outdoor sports on campers.

Those or cash strikes are good, as you dont get the reels messed up. The seven stepper one is also good, as it offers a hold afterwards and you can usually manip. it into something. Mix and match is cack, and streak isn't that good as you lose the setup. Fancy a brew can be ok as well.

What annoys me on extremes is that al lthe features are rigged. IE There are no way to set anything up for certain amounts. Apart from 6 reel blasts if your clever enough.
