Ok, just had my Bling Bling replaced by a 50p/£25 Jailbirds today. Forced it, went £25s....reforced it and this time it went £75! My first ever £75 in one go from an extreme! Ended about £30 up from that.
Anyway, do you think they can be manipulated at all? Obviously the +4 still works a la old extremes, but i reckon there must be some holds somewhere. Just in my short playing time tonight i could find certain same holds (ie blue seven +3 now always adds a 4). Somewhere there must be some combinations hiding!
"Sixty percent of the time, it works, every time!"
it is nearly pointless that it bring the 4 in still, as the bonus is 99% boost or stoppa, which will only give the board if the machine is off its head.
Yeah they aren't great. The only good point is that boards are usually quite costly whatever the stage, so they should be ready more often. From what i've read and heard, these tend to streak a lot better than the other extremes.
"Sixty percent of the time, it works, every time!"
The 25/30p extremes don't streak, have had 3 slow down bonuses in 3 consecutive boards on the 509er's!. Each board going for pot. Now would you see that on a 25/30p extreme?
Matt I think u may be right mate as in bigger streaks. But what's with these sometimes massive starting cashpots (board cashpots) - i had one start on £5 and thought i'd see how far it went just i suppose to try and figure out the machine a bit.
Anyway got upto £20 on the cash side (not the board that was about £10) only to die.... hmm.
And it wasn't buzzing next few boards either just was playing quite well but not overly.
Definitely going to keep trying to work this out but honestly think set ups are a thing of the past. Yeah I get the 4 when u have the blue seven on the right reel but that has the same effect really as holding the actual 3.
Some setups are there but only when bonus or board is not possible.
The Strawb3/CHERRY/CHERRY still works.
and as stated before the ORANGE1 setup.
If startng on £3/4/5, ready to force as before. (Happy Camper 30p/50p)
Now, I remember when Jailbirds was on test, £4 starting, £75 after, went for £25. Never forced 1 of them since. Don't know wether these would be still bastards to force.
Well 2 reports from 2 of these yesterday and both promising...
first one starting on £4 extra cash so forced. Took £22 for £25 (top feature) then next board went upto £23.80 in the middle which i took.. dubious i know but as stated above i have died when on £20 cash side so got a bit nervous. Although it did go through my head that if it was a red board i'm pretty much guaranteed a £50 off top although maybe not on these new extremes...
Second one started on £4 extra cash again played it out and top feature went for £75 off £30.
So 2 good ones. Please any1 list bad experiences as these do play quite oddly compared to older extremes...
yes jeff ofcourse it was a true £3 start, I'm no mug! they are ok to force if the cash is stacking, if not, its a bit dodgy.... ie. one campers...
£15 on superboard 1st board - if it was a 30p one I'd be thinking sequence here ( as it went from £3 to ? cash which added 4.40 etc etc.) , but the 50p ones dont do this, anyhow, went for it none the less - wasnt stacking the cash.... £90 later, finally stacking cash, £20 more for £25, then after which it was still there £20 for £50, after which it was pretty dead...
They do repeat alot, so if the stack is there, you should be fine - although now and again you get a nasty like my £80 from £3 start ( it did more than 1 stack, the next few boards were all £3/4 start too )... all in all, not great tbh
They can be sooooo random though. I've had a £21 pot/£20 cash Jailbirds here cost another £20 odd to get a £25 pot before. Reforced and got £50 fairly soon after, but thats not the point.
I think cashpots are they key on these 50p jailbirds, rather than starts. They can £3 start for no reason sometimes. When the cashpot starts at £5+ on level 1 you know its flying. That said, obviously that can't happen on campers. Just some general jailbirds advice for people there.

Ended about £30 up from that.
