    Default Parlours are sooooo darn noisy!!

    Well we all know Pachinko parlours must be really really noisy,

    but here's a Youtube Video that shows some tests carried out in a parlour to see if players can hear various things, including mobile phones, and most importantly,...

    The FIRE alarm!!

    The fire alarm sounded like normal pachinko "noise" to me. They need something really annoying and much louder.

    you'd think that with all that technology and all the pachinkos being wired up to battle counters and presumably the Parlour Staff desks / counters,

    that they would be able to rig something up that cuts the sound to all the machines when they need to make an announcement

    like 'FIRE!!'

    guess they could just turn the machines off, eh? that would get their attention.

    As I was reading posts, Mudfud, that's exactly what I was going to say!

    But then I think the fire would be the least of the problems if someone was winning!
