Yeah these are past their best to be honest. Not on many cabs, and one ones that do have them they are usually stone and on page 2/3. Lucky to get them going, next please!

Well I dont agree with that.

SC is fcking worthless and everyone knows it anyway. The finer points of CR are quite hidden (or were).

Besides, I dont have any problem finding them since it was re-released.

If you played them enough, you would know the new release has "Gemini Games" on.

There is also a way to make sure the game stays or goes.

hang on a minute, the quiz forum has been invaded. boo, hiss, etc, etc.

i'm all for open consideration of games, i can't speak for others who look into this part of the site but, for myself, i heard there was something on this but didn't have the inclination to investigate. nor the skill.
but having said this, i've not been IOUed by a paragon in months and in central London i'd imagine there are some very, very strong players across the board.

i am not going to delete the thread: freedom of speech requires responsibility of action and all that.

AWP requires a very different skillset to SWP; i doubt any of us quiz folk could hit a fruity skillstop or win stepper (pls excuse my ignorance of the correct terms). also i know that certain players are worried about SWP cabs inviting skills other than knowing answers to questions.

all power to those who have found a winner on any given game. in slight (and apologetic) cynicism, paragon realise that they are in the driving seat and if they can expand their customer base with a loss-leader, everyone is a winner.

but there is a lot i don't know about casino games on SWP.

Finer points? Think you are making a bit more of them than is there mate. There's just one way to play them really, a bit of nous knowing the spins/when to play etc....but in essence:

a) It'll only drop pot when it wants to, though i agree some boards are more likely to give it...

b) The spins can and will skip when it doesn't want you to land

Been on ones looking flying and it cost more than pot.....or others not looking as ready doing £30 supers off a tenner, or a pot for less than a score etc...

have to agree with mr slammer

i think mr b went a bit far

i've been making a lot on these for nearly a year

i are say that from what matt has said, people aren't going
to be playing them neccesarily if they havn't been already.

But still, since the re-release (which was noticed) they are still around.

I started the thred to ask if anyone could go as far as i can

It appears that they can, but i didnt intend for info to be released

All i was saying is out of about the last 10/15 i've been on, maybe 1 or 2 have been worth....little while back you'd maybe 1 in 3 worth a dabble.

You can hit all the zeros under the sun dan, but if it wants you'll be getting 5 short spin games/2 free games all the while :P

I've never played this; I can't even visualise what Casino Royale looks like! Kudos to those that have been making good money on it though.

I second Istenem's remark about IOUs on Paragons; I've only had one IOU on a Paragon in the last year or so - a Paragon in deepest north London which paid out only £3 of a £20JP on Celebrity WWTBAM (you will be pleased to hear I reported this to the cabinet distributor who sent me a £17 cheque in the post!). I presume that could have been due to money being taken out through this game.

I don't know the details of this particular game but doesn't the fact that both you and Isty have reported very few failures to pay on Paragons recently (which I would concur with, certainly in comparison to say 6 months ago) imply that there aren't many people exploiting any loopholes in this game to empty said machines, in London at least?

mr lugsy · Post by **mr lugsy** » Thu Jan 22, 2009 1:23 pm

this is not an empty guys ,it has to be jpt ready just like anything else,only thing with this though is the fact that it is kind enough to let you know before you play. you can get the odd quid or two if not jpt ready but you would'nt be emptying it off CR
