never hits the small prizes

[METZ]

it seems the machine works fine but it has never hit the cherry or the 3 bells or the 3 watermelons
did this machine ever hit those?

I'm new so I hope it's alright to ask these ?'s

thanks in advance

try alterin gthe odds you may find it will give you some of the smaller pays on difrent odds setting but on some machines you will find you get a replay and thats about it as they concentrait on the big bonuse rounds more than small wins

[METZ]

i see
i have tried different settings before and i never hit the small ones just the BB do u know of anything I might have missed

[hanabi]

I'm wondering if you tried setting / resetting the Odds all as per this ......................

and you will probably need to play it for quite a while too - try it on diff settings - till you get one you are happy with.........

and if you have already tried this.........then I don't know what else to suggest......but perhaps another Member may come up with the Answer for you.......

if you want to hit the cherries try to set your machine to level 1 (the hardest setting) it will make it harder to get the big bonus but give a lot more smaller payouts . Remember the machine pays off its percentage over a number of spins so you might have to keep playing for a while to notice the differences.

I will try that
moving machines now so I can't try it at the moment ( so I can post a nice shot of the bar and machines)

after work
and I've owned this machine 3 years so i doubt its hasn't been played enuff
thanks for your time in this manner

...and I've owned this machine 3 years so i doubt its hasn't been played enuff...

WHOA!!!
So you're saying that in 3 years of playing this machine, you have NEVER hit cherry, watermelon, OR even BELLS???

What other symbols are on it???

[METZ]

it does help to mention things like this in the initial post it helps diagnose the machine if we know its been going on for 3 years. although if the machine was on the same setting like setting #6 for 3 years you most likely wouldn't have seen the cherrie anyway . try setting it to level one and play it for a few weeks and see what shows up .different combinations show up on different levels and different animation sequences show up the same way on those with monitors .

[METZ]

i will try
soon

thanks for the help

and nice to meet you guys

[METZ]

no luck on the settings

[Tony Junior]

Keep playing it. Even at the lower settings the watermelons and cherries are hard to come by.

I have no idea why, (unless it has something to do with an upcoming larger prize), the payout is usually smaller on watermelons than bells.

[METZ]

dont you guys think the small payouts would've hit b4 the big ones?

thats the way it would seem to me does anybody have this machine?

[METZ]

set on 3 now
will try it soon

[alstonj1]

the Cherry usually on most machines shows up just before a big bonus . you've got to give it time .these machines base there odds over a long time just because you set the odds to another setting doesn't mean your going to get it in a few spins .......put it on level 1 and play it for a week and see what happens changing the odds every few minutes doesn't do jack this isn't a pinball machine it recalculates and pays out accordingly and if you've hit allot before you might go through a dry spell now give it some time and i don't mean seconds .....
heres a tip gaku gives you explaining small prizes .

really?

I hit the BB oh maybe 45 times in the time I've owned the machine and I have never seen it

it sometimes makes a 7 out of the lights around the reels before a BB like a tease but its never hit anythang but the jackpots
so however the odds are set up shouldn't the little stuff hit more then the big stuff (seeing how the big bonus pays more and the little stuff (cherries bells watermelon pay less))

[alstonj1]

yes thats generally the rule except if your on the higher levels like 5 and 6 where the bonuses are closer together and the small pots are few if at all . at level 1 you should see just about everything over the time it takes to get to the big bonus which should take a good amount of spins to achieve .

[METZ]

it was on 1 for awhile and nothing little

[Lddrizzt]

it was on 1 for awhile and nothing little

I've been wanting to ask this question since the beginning of this thread.
How many tokens is "for awhile"?

[METZ]

and I 'll play it more now that I've got some great tech guys here
