Is it just me, or are more reds just not playing ball?

I have had a few reliable ones that I got absolutely murdered on the other day, after showing early & float levels true and correct.

And a mate of mine lumped £300 in a FNC all red from the off.

My take on things is Gamestec or whoever have lost a lot of money through the notey scam & they HAVE to make their money back probably by resetting the RAM or knocking it back £1000s behind %age.

More likely just not getting played enough jeff, can't see them having the time or effort to change the % or reset the ram on everything. You can always have the odd mare on Reds but because they are hard to come by now if you do have a bad session then it is more noticable as you haven't got the many good ones to balance it out.

Since Gamestec have taken over most of the link sites(especially spoons) I have noticed just how disgusting some of their crap is playing, especially monops and HOF's. They changed the progs on a few of the machines in my local spoons as soon as they took over, probably a reduction in %age also made things a bit poo for a while.

Some of the newer reds can suck for England, I went nearly £200 into a COB last night that was ready straight away, believe it or not I actually made £26 on it!!

Yet another Jeff moaning about how he cant win and how everything has being 'fixed' by GamesTec to screw Jeff over!

I have not stumbled across one of theese new type reds that have being reset and set £1000s behind figures due to a notey scam on GamesTec?? dont think GamesTec have ever had there note changers fiddled!

Jeff on a serious note it seems as if you are losing thousands a week due to this new change in programs, I would really really seriously consider knocking this on the head!!

most people on here who are full time are probably still making enough to have a better lifestyle than working bar you!?

if it was 1000s behind % surely it would never go red

Exactly Kesh.

But hey let's take the conspiracy further. Gamestec, yeah? Gamestec are so annoyed at all the tooling on their note thingys, that they've done rogue programs on FNC to proper show when it's not there. Basically Jeff's play was metabolically bisturbiley analasized by an analisizer and the difference was paid into a fund to reduce the loss caused by note thingy fraud.

For fear of tempting fate, I've never had a FNC play that bad. They do take a while to red up, but once there, they're ok. Touch wood, not tempting fate etc

Jeff if I lived closer to you, I'd love to join up and go on a run and see these evil machines. We'd also play out a few Cluedos on 50p, unlike these Cleuydos on here who play 30p. What a load of Clueydos. We'd have steps and high fives and low sevens and all kinds of wierd shit and we'd be prising in from crazy places.


I suppose some people just paint a lucky picture. Ahem, £105 topz on £35 boxez on Hallz. Whilst others are doomz and gloomz.



I had a flash on a Hallz today. Just about to leave it actually and on the last credit bonus, thought got to be add again or boost as WAY TOO SOON, NO win spin, thought quick bonus, but no a flash for a flat isolated £35.


Played a FNCz myself actually. It was ALLGB1, but it cost £3 for two*crime climbs for £5 each. Good result on a 72%+6% FNCz.

Unfortunately a dialz has gone and has been replaced by a 'Red Gaming slithery thing and runged thing' machine(z).


What other news?

NEWS.

I had £8 in my box, got £8 and MS left and was offerred a £22.xx deal, doesn't always offer the swap does it? So I took my deal. Would you have gone for it?

Errr Oh yeah, oh no. Can't say anything really here can you? People might read it. Can't say nothing now can you?

Well look. I had an auto pip main for £35. Also had roll ins earlier. A fair bit in. Was thinking should I sack this for £40 down and come back later? Play that old game? Thought I'd been fed bad history. Then two flippin' credits later a X X X X X X X X X bloopa for the propa £115 or whatever.
AND NO that £35 wasn't part of it, that was the main ok?
Rare isn't it? a BIG BLOOPA right after the SMALL BLOOPA. Sometimes you get the BIG BLOOPA before the SMALL BLOOPA, obviously if you're going for it then the SMALL BLOOPA may be there whilst going for the BIG BLOOPA, but you don't often see the BIG BLOOPA after the SMALL BLOOPA has finished do you?

Heres my rogue red story if anyone is interested.


Invincible, full, non refill, ARB2 second board, it cost £30 for a top, i love £70 tops when £30 in, make a quick £40 and move on but no it went £35, still there obviously, it takes all the £35 back and another score for another £35.... still there, then i get to £120 in before it gives a £70, still there, then 12 yes TWELVE recycled tops with another £50 of my money in there as well, so now £170 involved, at this point it does £105, still there, next board gives name fill for £35, still there and 2 boards later does another £35, then lots of dead boards, manage to get a drop zone for £7 which leaves me £14 down and was very happy with that, just under 2 hours that little stint took me, also had the gaffer come over and say 'not being rude but if you want to stay you've gotta buy another drink' :x :x :x :x the auto collect on the £105 must have got his attention, felt like shouting I'M ONE HUNDRED AND SEVENTY IN, PRICK, bit my tongue and left.


Had a similar session on another invince about 2 years back that i was £300 involved in from full and ready first board and i think this is the same one, it must be floating round Leicester and i keep finding it, it gives the 1 which puts you on the 2 on 50p and hardly ever holds for the bonus or the 3 to put you on the 6 and then just trail holds a couple of times not dropping any more numbers in, and the amount of boards costing £8-£15 was ridiculous, one cost £18 in the middle of supposedly flying.

Invincibles have a nasty habbit of doing this!!

I guess its because there is no Mega Spin option so therefore the blue/red sevens are harder to achieve.

Not sure if you bother but try yanking the holds for the skill entry for 99 nudges, watch your no.s tho!!

This can quicken things up a wee bit, I think we've all battled Invincibles for a few hours at some point tho!!

In my opinion still a good red, despite the above.

Yank the holds????

Don't hold the numbers or hold all reels if theres no numbers so that you don't board going for the skill.
Invincibles seem pretty shit my way now, I think the problem is they've been everywhere so everyones sussed how to play them, Not had an easy session on 1 for ages.

im doing that particular invincible now scot in g******** in the f****

I've never touched that one in there mate, i know your on top of it.

was it one of you guys from leicester in hinckley yesterday?

Not me, not been there since the cash attack went from the harvester.

Went back to the dodgy invincible today, i had'nt gone there to play that but as i walked in its ARB1 with some old boy playing it, i could'nt resist it thinking it can't be that bad again, cost £60 for a name fill, pleeeease go £70 so i can f*ck off, nope...£35 all this back and another £80 for £140 involved before it gives another top that goes for £70, still going and takes a fair bit back and does a £105, did'nt even check any more boards, counted £13 up and walked away quickly, no one can resist a full showing invincible but i would'nt take this on with less than £200 coins (and notes for back up), its the same one i was doing a couple of years back i reckon, can't be 2 this bad floating round Leicester, i'm not confident of getting a decent top cheap with what i've seen it play like the last 2 visits, i should leave alone but i know i'll see it showing and get stuck in again.
