OK I don't check if these roll or not as it's so rare.
But yesterday I did a cluedo and met my mate for a pint.
This lad was on the machine next to it and the note changer didn't work so knowing I'd just taken MS off cluedo he put a not in it for change
Obviously it was fucked but as I was facing him I watched how it played. Anyway after 3 dead boards it was buzzing again. Boosting to red hi-lo cash.
He can't have put more than £15 in it - how does that work? And its happened before....
So nipped back on it and made another £15 - weird.

It just depends on how ready it is when you get GUAC, that's all. I mean if its bare minimum fiver ready and you get it, it locks down for £40 odd as it's way behind. Get one when its say £15 ready and it'll obviously take less time to recover.

It gets some right slotting - I did it about a week back and went back an hour later to meet some1 (not to play it) and some guy was forcing it for mega.
Can't imagine how much he would have put in it to gamble TO give us a clue let alone past it.
I reckon about £120?
After I'd done it it would need at least £50 - £60 to make it player ready then at bare min another £60 to gamble up and past GUAC....

this used to happen with ice burger...
a lot...
the early pot used to make the machine suck like hell, and then people put a few quid in and get committed... banging loads in to try to gamble to the jp, as its on a tilt as its given wins it shouldnt have...
sole reason for some rechips...
"update due to severe percentage manipulation"

I do feel bad for people that get stubborn. Especially when u see the notes fly in.
The people I don't get is people that start takin wins as they are getting nowhere then the m/c takes it all back then they are on the JP hunt again.
Ouch.

Worse thing about this is that even when they do eventually run out of money unless they havent taken anything for £50 or so, which is unlikely, all the recycling will leave the machine stone dead.

Whilst en route to epping to buy my new motor today i had to go through Liverpool Street. Cluedo started 2 features but £2.50 red? Skilled it to super feature and it only added one on. Excellent i thought, just a random 2 feature start, it's not dead. Well it still cost £54, so i was wrong. Dropped after £19, so maybe i got the recovery of someone elses.
Saw a couple of players too who watched me then had a chat, london natives, slightly tanned looking. Left 'em to it!

Ok you obviously haven't played the millions I have off these. If mega streak goes for more than £35 its an IM board (not in case c actually), either
a) cycle IM board £35-45
b) cycle roll £70-105, either in one MS or two running boards.
c) its red (ie. blagged off lines) and goes for £40, RARE this
Where you've had the jp repeat it was the cycle roll which is why it repeats for £70. Both of a) and b) are rare though you do get them now and again.

yeah if it goes over £35 its the roll, in a very rare case if it only goes for £ extra it can be stone dead but this dont really happen on Clues moreso on Rovers etc!
the £96 MS off GUAC is the best a lovely £131 streak!!!!!
if you blag a red board and it gives £5 extra it can be flat as you get for some reason think its something to do with whats being saving up in the streak bank!
