Sure it's been mentioned on here before, but I'm new to here-deal with it.
Any cock-ups that haunt you from your early days?
I missed a third hold on melons on red hot knights at a time when that really meant something! I also remember having to ask someone what a flashing barcrest man meant after nudges on arabian nights ops: ok, not a fuck-up, but a nasty memory non the less!
Hmm - not sure really. I've had the usual not thinking when using nudges and nudged in a win lower than the one available and its auto collected ops:
Also had one on a club machine the other day where I got 8 cash shots. The first cash shot hit a fiver and I took it in case it ende dup giving me about a quid - what I didn't realise was that there were less than 7 values left below the five - so even if the next six shots had all been lower than 5, I would have knocked out all the values and the last shot would have had to have been higher!
A couple of times when pissed on machines where there is a separate button to collect nudges I have gone and pressed the normal collect button - giving me the option usually of the lowest feature or £1.20 or something
Missed a £250 jackie on some pick a nudge win type feature on a clubber. Pressed the wrong button and it went on the next mediocre win before I could recover.
And I ploughed all the mediocre win + more in but never got it back
Too many really is loads of errors tha have cost me. like on Bobby Dazzler on 99 shots through IM and about to take JP off ndges only to press auot nudge on bands for £5 fruit repeater. although £50 later did get a flat £25
When I was about 13, playing a nudge double up deluxe (like you do ), melons on the bottom line, nudges, 4 of. Reel 1 up, reel 2 up reel 3, hang on, bollocks IIRC, the gamble went down too.
Trying to set reel magic up on PCB and nudging cherries/other shocking win in.
Being too eager playing a red so i smack the collect button on a bonus even though cancel lit for a slow bonus, the boost i got put me on 6, then proceeds to take another £13 for a board that killed me second gamble IIRC.
Missing a JP on 5p/£5 MPU4 crystal maze with some skill match type feature.
Which after that, proceeded to take £14 for a board... which is 280 spins on reel play, and anyone that remembers the machine knows that reel play wasn't fast anyway. I went from eager, to annoyed, to shocked, then to in awe.

Yeah, i too have been victim to 'accidental win-nudging' (yes, i have just made that up). ANd even that pressing the wrong button, did it on legionnaire pressing collect instead of the nudge button at the top of the machine (whop the fuck put it there anyway?!)
Pressed 'collect' on a Hi/Lo Karate on 99 nudges for a choice of two half full stacks or walking after a 'free' top on Flash Cash. hmmm no wonder there was a guy gagging to get on it as soon as i finshed up ops:
Too many other cock-ups to remember, just try to forget them :x
