Alan Mendelson Going For The Jugular

[AxelWolf]

PS. I've actually found multiple bugs on machines and I know nothing about programming or anything like that.

I was just going to say tht Rob's DUB was not the only bug that's ever been found. The old Williams multi-game machines come to mind.

Yea, I come across bugs that just seemed almost impossible for it to have happened. It has to be The Perfect Storm scenario that just seems impossible to have found. I'll give a fictitious example something similar. Let's just say you cash out a ticket for exactly $11.11 and for some reason you notice a screen flicker, so then you take that ticket and put it back in the machine and cash it out again to see if the machine will flicker, but then there's nothing. So then you play a spin hitting something that gives you your money back for exactly $11.11 now you cash that ticket out and see another screen flicker so now you re-enter it into the machine and for some unknown reason you now have 111.11 and this all works with only that exact scenario and ticket amount. What is the f****** odds of that happening?

After you find one glitch you start to pay attention to anything that might be off. Once you notice something a little different you start trying to figure out why and how that's happening, you then start to experiment with different things in order to recreate it, once you figure that out you move on and figure out just how best to exploit it. I could only imagine what could happen if somebody had more advanced computer knowledge.

That's exactly what I spend a great amount of my casino time doing, and I was onto something before the shutdown as I said. I bet one credit. Get trips or whatever excites you, before you hold them pound away at the "bet one credit" button, and it gets to five credits bet. It deducts from your credits remaining so there's no "cheating" really. Then hit draw and you're paid as if you bet max credits to begin with.

I found this on a machine in Mesquite and then in LV and in one more place. Most machines don't work, which leads me to believe it may be a result of some machines having worn out "bet one credit" button mechanics or something from the local degenerates using that method too often. Not sure yet..didn't have enuf time to research. You gotta have patience in the search and just bet one credit. All lower denom. machines so far although one went to dollars.
