Mmmm you learn something everyday i will have a go at recreating that on mine. I wonder if their is any other similar bugs outthere on other mpu3 machines would be nice to here about it if their is. Maybe Chris might know about it
There is one on Line Up, where if you have an orange on Reel 1, the 10p symbol on the middle reel, and have nudges, even if you get 12 nudges, and nudge nothing in, it will then say I can do better, and give you 20p for 2 oranges.
My simulation of Line Up forced me to look more deeply at nudging when there’s already a win on the winline. I put up a GAIN video a couple of years ago where I waffle about the problems that avoiding nudging through wins causes. I failed spectacularly with Snappy but my later efforts were more successful. They’re still not perfect though 😊
@@Bernard.Mitchell There must be a weakness in the programming where you need zero nudges. It looks like all it wants to do is nudge reel 1 down then up. Nudging any of the 3 reels up first, or even nudging reel 3 down would have eliminated this problem.
Yes, and it gets it right with the same symbols when starting from 4 nudges. Usually she nudges reel 1 down then up but will do it on reel 2 if her first choice would give a win. If both give wins, it looks like she can’t cope if she only has two nudges. It proves that she doesn’t use a brute-force algorithm 😁
Yes - I think she wants to nudge either of the first two reels down then back up but she’ll match either the HV or the 2. With four nudges and exactly the same symbols, she gets it right!

Very possibly, but it took me over 30 years to spot this one! 😂

Very odd that.
