He sat down in the seat and was waiting for the plops to make the flushes to turn the Flush Attack light on when he got a tap on the shoulder from a security guard that said "This ain't Laughlin. If you are going to sit there you have to play."

I told Hawaiian Derek, a Laughlin Flush Attacker about the bank. There weren't any dollar banks left in Nevada. So Derek goes up there and stays for several months. He came back to Nevada when they unlinked them.

So when Paladin got kicked off of vpFREE and started his own forum, Arci came on Paladin's forum and asked if anyone knew anything about unlinked Flush Attack. He had found the that dollar bank in Minnesota. I told him to give me the payscale and count how many flushes he had to make per cycle. It was the 8/5 version on a 4 flush cycle. A 102.8% game. And by sweeping thru the machines regularly you pick up all the five coin flushes made by the plops. It shortens the flush cycle on average to about 3. And that means you are playing at 105% plus whatever the card gets you. If Arci did things correctly, which I suspect he did, he made a mint.
I suppose for those that found the unlinked version, there was no heat about rapidity of play as there was with the linked version. Between that and full pay OEJ, Arci did well for himself. Great story and road pics.
