Old School

Post by Mattb »

Was out in merry York for a night last night. Wandered into a bar to find it had a £25 JPM Tombraider! It's like being back 5 years ago! :D :lol:

Remember the MT on it? Wasn't it, force for an IM board and then play for 'Lucky numbers' (Or something like that). That was a free win. It was quite hard to do though as if it didn't want to give it to you it wouldn't.

If i remember rightly, instead of going around the board you used to have to Hi lo all the way around to try and play for the feature! Anyone rememeber?

Cor, I remember the first (and only) one of these I found would give IM every board... :shock: They didn't sus it for about two weeks, and I royally took it for one... ;)

Wonder how it could 'go wrong' to contiuously do this?!?

I recall also, that landing on a feature twice would, wait for it, 'superise' it, but some features were in a position where oyu could never land on them twice... ...Doh!

I'm pretty sure they were situated in the 'connecting corridors' between the various 'rooms' on the board, which you could only 'pass' once...

...shabby design... :(

Used to have one of these in Norwich, replaced by a smeeable extreme.

JPM released a program update that significantly changed the gameplay, but introduced the 'minor' fault with the IM that you experienced. Needless to say, a critical was soon issued, you were lucky to have it for 2 weeks!

Ah, it appears I was lucky then! ;)

What a mistake to make though - infinite IM's... ;)
