ive had all red from jackpot genie once in a pub and it did £50 then next board killed me of with £2 safe but only £2 in all together.

Apart from Jackpot Genie, I don't think I've ever seen a Red start me off with an ARB0 board. The most recent machine to do it wasn't even a Red, it was Global's Casino Crazy.

The biggest top I ever had on a SKR was a meagre £50 ..

As for Snailblazer - terrific machine. It was essentially the same as Dragon Drop but it didn't lumber you with £10 of Safe Cash half as often.

Talking of Reds, isn't it about time we had another £35/£70 fruit stepper?

I had it on a Sting King Rich too

I used to own a stinking rich and never had one so you were very unlucky!

yeh hang on here, I think snailblazer is getting too good a rep on here, it wasn't a great machine at all, I found it one of the poorest old reds around!!!

MattV you used to love it eh, but I never really got on that well with the machine!

Yeah snailblazer really wasn't that good compared to many reds IMO, Genie was defo the most common ARB0 machine and on early program versions actually gave the chance to get to the feature exchange too...

I guess as always, it's all about experience - mine was obviously better than the majority. I'm sure there were two versions of it (internally different) as there was one at the bowling alley that I'd rarely play as it was simply awful on the gamble.

The one in the Somerset, however, used to be fantastic for a weekly 'download' of funds!

Certainly the Red that I got the most 'earliest' tops on - in that I'd get to £1.50 / £2 and it would give it from Name / ARB0.

It may not have been the most fantastic machine then, but that one unit in particular was for me!

Lets face it tho SB is huge compared to some of the shite now

I always had good experiences on it too.

Yeah, snail blazer was one of the best - along with cobra cabana. Very much under rated IMO.

Genies ran a couple programs at least, some were downright awful.

Re: Topic - genie and snail blazer, not seen any others. Guess Hi Lo with a good start + red alert but that dont count.

Thinking about it now, I think I might have done too. Not 100% tho.
