    Default Payout too easy?

    It seems like my pachinko pays out too easy :!:
    Sure I know I'm not paying for balls, but even so...
    It seems if I play long enough(under two hours),
    it always pays off big time. There's no profit in that.
    If that's how it is in Japan, I'd be rich
    Were the odds adjusted to be more fun?

    You can always adjust the nails a bit to make it harder for a ball to enter a gate. Not too much though, as you want the ball to enter it, just not as easily.

    I would imagine that your pachinko has the gaps a bit wide on some of these or it wouldn't' be paying off as easily.

    You found the sweet spot, us ball player all are looking for that sweet spot. When you hit that the machine will darn near have your children.

    I would have to agree with Arby, you found the "sweet spot". Tulsa finally trained me to mess with the pins as needed.

    Your the first I have heard that gets a payout too much! I bet that could be very annoying with a Pachinko.

    Uh-huh... we understand... we just wanted to let you find that out for yourself. It's part of the magic. :wink:

    You know, it could be weeks before you hit that many times again...

    Or not...

    I think David R once talked about his Batman going a LONG time without much payback. Right David?

    :lol:

    My Twin Vision didn't give much for the first three days... nada.
    Probably 10,000 balls into it... and nothing.
    I thought there was something wrong with it. :-(
    Then... two days in a row of bonuses... wide open flippers, etc.
    I thought there was something wrong with it. :-)

    Today... back to nada... played around with it for HOURS today, but it's tight as a drum again. Oh, it will tease and taunt... but no big bonus for now.

    Um... James... if you're married, pachinkos make alot more sense.

    Could have been me.

    I played "Wanted" for two months before hitting the bonus round.

    Then, I hit it for 4 bonus rounds within an hour.

    Now, I'm back in a dry spell.

    After posting a while, I went back to losing.
    Then Baby gave me some love :smt058

    I got a never seen before fakeout match & new music.

    Are there rare events too scarce to been seen under 30-40-50 hours of play?

    Talk to it... :lol: if you sweet talk the machine, it is much more likely to pay off. :-P That's probably your problem. :lol: :lol:
