Pretty easy to work out if machine is "due", even for the casual, hense dead most the time

Pretty sure it was £18. I'd put a £20 in and it was after having to press transfer twice. Don't think I'd done anything "wrong" either.

Location was headingley.

Oh and is it me or is the cashpot on this completely pointless? Never seemed to be more than the cash stack and even if it was I couldn't see myself ever taking it.

Some are 18 and some are 13 for boards

If you're doing them properly, they should be £18. Same chip different profiles, can get 'em both doing £18.

Now come on JG, as a moderator I expect better.

When u really smash 'em they go into 'protect' mode and there is no maximum on either profile.

Just hope u get a board within £70 to make after each rip.

And there is no alarm!!!

played one the otherday for 5min, 1st board offered £10 stack £10 cashpot and high features, next board offered £8 stack high features high cashpot and streak.
only £3 in for these 2 boards.
next board cost £17 for a fcuking board grrrr
it offered streak and i took it and it credit broke twice and gave £21.

so it looks like even when looking good it costs for a board, and i noticed that you can only collect on a ? when the mahine wants you to. sometimes the collect button dont work on a ? sometimes it does :/

You have to earn the collect on mystery bonus. It appears to be sometimes multi-added in as you start a board. Seems a bit pointless to me.

Played on one of these the other day which wouldn't let us put more than £1 in credit into the machine. It just spat the extra coins out. And any wins, no matter how small, were auto-collected. Absolute nightmare. Take it that it's an error with the machine when they do this?

Interesting you say that. I had that happen to me with a Barcrest "Open The Box" (cross between Take Your Pick and DOND), at a train station. You could only play £1 at a time, and like you said, anything above that was rejected. You had to wait until the £1 was spent. The only exception was when you inserted a £2 coin and the machine registered the £2 ok.

That's just a machine setting.

Auto payout and one coin at a time are dipswitch settings.
