The 7/5 FA's were in Northern Nevada. The 8/5's FA's were in Laughlin but they were linked banks. Except, the Pioneer unlinked their 8/5 FA's in late 1999. The 8/5's came in at 101.8%. The Pioneer had promotions galore so these machines got beat to death. Surprisingly, the Pioneer left this game in for over 2 years.
