Invincible Showing ? Number Runner

Had a few decent results on this before and noticed that a few boards before top it gives a lot of number runners out on the bonus, if showing a lot of number runners would everyone say this is a good indication of a MS to come ?

urm... YES. ON every single red. no doubt people will say they have got random NRs when not there, but 98% of the time it will be unless you are catching it at the end of a streak OR there is fuck all there from the NR-unlikely if you are good at them.

Not always. These do NR and skillstops when they aren't really ready for a MS, but will give a £10 odd random board. I reckon the pub mode accounts for this. Sometimes if i'm only a few in, i'll take the SS instead.

Got a £30 SS on Stack Attack on monday after pennies in. Wasn't that red and i didn't fancy a force. Guess it depends on how you feel. 8)

I know what you mean Matt but if continually showing number runners surely you have to go for MS. I know I would

yeah, the difference is the number of NRs, I can't remember ever seeing 2NRs off a dead machine.

They can offer number runner or SSS and still not be there. Typically a 10 pound board and it doesn't offer notation on the true skill boxes. If they continuously NR and SSS then in most cases they are there for a force.

Dont know what the reds r like near u - i play them every day and am lucky 2 get one number runner a day or even a week.

Never ever had "loads" of number runners on 1 machine. Maybe 2 or at most 3 but even 2 is rare.

Also number runners do not rate anywhere near what they used to when playing on mega spin machines. I miss actually doing number runner when it was complete skill and not hoping that 7's are near as any number will get u on the board.

Number runner generally a good sign but if it is throwing 2 or 3 at you then it sohuld be good to go. Invincible and clones tend to give it more often as top reel win is only £10.

i was on a stack attack about 2 weeks back that was redding, the first top went £25 then the second went £50.... still red, then 5 more £25 tops. hate them when there in this mood :x . anyway during all this i had roughly 20 number runners :shock: including 3 times on the trot [not slow down]

finally went £75 in the end and finished £20 up, i was £15 up after the second top that went £50 could have took a few features and made more but it was clearly still on, just being a w*nker :( definately the most NR i've seen from one machine :shock:

with the mega spins, just bring trhee numbers down at once for the 99 nudges though.

Am I right in thinking that with Number Runners you can hold a reel for a few seconds, and then allow it to spin with the others? I can never get it to do that. Do you hold the button or press and press again?

Cheers
