I have a few machines in my mind and I cannot remember the names of them. Maybe someone here can help.

First off, a machine, £8JP I believe. The thing I recall most about it was Red or Blue 7's was the jackpot, but Mixed 7's was the next highest win at £4. You still had all the other usual symbols on the reels as well.

Second, a more recent machine, Sort of reminds me of grid runner. Coloured balls in a pile, you gamble high and low to get the next one fall out the bottom and add to that trail. Began with a P I think

Lastly, Older machine. and there are two possibles. Numbers on the reels added from both sides of the trail. Depending on how far along in one direction it got one way or another, the better the prize or feature you started with.

Also, similar to above, numbers counting back, made you start higher in levels on a pyramid type structure.

So any idea on any of those?

That describes a few machines in all honesty, TEN OUT OF TEN springs to mind and its clones, the names of which elude me at the moment.

Sounds a bit like JPM's Ricochet

The first two are exactly the ones I was thinking of. I had completely forgotten about the disc reel and lottery branding of the first game.

Yup, ricochet is also another one I had in my mind.

Ten out of ten is not one of the games. That is two seperate trails, but have no influence on each other. I shall see if I can com up with a diagram of what I remember.

Reagrding the older machine with a twin trail, these two spring to mind.
Super Two is a great game, shame no art has ever become available for it.

Thinking about it more, the one with two trails, didnt have two trails, from what I can remember now.

It did have a separate symbol on the reels, to take the level of the feature up one floor.

the main feature looked a little like


□□
□□□
□□□□
□□□□□
□□□□□□
□□□□□□□

One trail started the feature, icons took you up levels. I think when you got onto the feature, you then hi/lo'd across it. the last icon being the same prize, Win series or something. Thus the higher up you got, the less gambles you would have to make to get the jackpot.

Nope, and I wont ever be nicking him. I left the force 3 days ago.

I may end up working for the devil sometime soon. Gala casino have given me an interview to run their slots section.

On what server is the IRC channel?

Going by the description I would say it was called Grafitti, mate. Mike did a nice redraw of it years ago. Link to the download for you: http://www.fruit-emu...pecial-edition/

Is it the one you're thinking of?

Full info here bud (#mpu34): http://homepage.ntlw...Chat_Links.html

Sucks you left the force bud, but guessing with possible Police cutbacks, did wonder if you would get caught out by it.
