saw battleships- absolute stinker waste of time.
by any means better but doesnt really appeal.reminds me of a very limited jpm game where you travelled round the world involving amongst other things a donkey,camel and granny with a camera flash at every location visiting prompting a bit of breakdancing from anybody suffering from epilespsy in the vicinity of the machine.love to know what it was called.

Have you been invited to Paragon Land to make your feelings known?
Oh, I'm so scared.

One chain that favoured Paragons which seem to be blowing SWPs out altogether is Yates.

I'd agree with that. I've lost 6 Gamesnets from Yates's recenty with no replacement machines.
Stupid punters. Telly all the week, screw the wife Saturday

I appreciate the info. yates's in my area still have machines at present- interesting to see if the virus will spread to eliminate other machines within the same company such as Litten Tree.Incidentally Dick or rather Martyn Clark, Litten Tree Bournemouth has left the pub. Anyone know where he is now? Need his location so I can send him a Xmas card!

I've noticed a few instances in London of Paragons being replaced by something else, yes, although I'm not sure I've pinned it down to particular chains yet.

I think there is an obvious reason why there seems to be more and more disappearing Paragons and that is they have over spent on personnel and and on the quantity of machines which they have found they cannot support.
I also hear they have had to let a number of people go.

Another obvious reason is that I won a tenner yesterday and the machine crashed when i tried to get it out. Barstaff very friendly about it but of course they haven't rang me up today. :x

A Games Warehouse I used yesterday was completely empty when I went to collect, which sullied my Word Soup jackpot somewhat. The girl at the bar was inches away from handing over the money, until the manager rang her back and said I'd have to put in a claim. Which I don't particularly expect to hear back from.
