Bernard Mitchell. Strange the first payout failed but all others worked. I recommend checking that 10p solenoid connection which I suspect is the culprit. Great video as always👍
Thanks, Chris - I think you’re right. She’s paid out fully since the video. I’ll be doing the contact cleaner on everything next time I get more than one day off 🤪
Hi Bernard great video as ever mate I think Chris is right I have a few mpu3 machines and I have had a few problems with bad connections especially on the short cab versions and contact cleaner does help or it could be a loose wire. Nice little bit of info on the bug never seen it on mine but handy to know about cheers pal
Thanks very much, Carl. I’m going to try to recreate a bug or two in Snappy when I get home at the weekend. If I do figure out how to handle her with the back door open, I shall post the footage.
Thank you very much. Next time I’m home from work, I’ll see if I can recreate the bug with the back door open. If I can, I’ll upload a video showing it.
@@Bernard.Mitchell I have another thing for you to check with the back door off, if you like. The machine traps itself, if it spins in 1 3 9 from the start of the trail. So if you can, with the back door off, bring in 1 3 9 and hope it then holds when it's on position 13 (also, the 1 just above the bell on reel 1 works best) If you then hold the 1 and 9, it cannot avoid giving you a win, because... If it drops zero, you have 4 nudges If it drops 1, you have a 20p win If it drops 2, you have a 50p win It can't drop 3, as the first reel to land (in this case the middle), cannot drop back to the same place, or any of the 7 positions below it. It can't drop 4 for the same reason If it drops 7, you've got down the snake to 20p And it can't drop the 9, as it's 5 positions below the 3. So, in reality, it can only drop 0, 1, 2 or 7, all of which give a win. It can also drop the 10p symbol. There is a similar but more obscure trap, if you end up on square 44 with 2 4 4 on the line. Hold the outside reels, and it can't avoid a win.
Thanks very much for this. I can confirm that you’re right about the 1-3-9 situation as I’ve discussed this at length with Chris and every word you said is true. I’ve not heard about the 2-4-4 trick but will try to check that one out at the weekend when I get back home. I’m on night shifts at the moment and work is too far away for me to commute 😊
@@Bernard.Mitchell Yes, I told Chris about the 1 3 9 trap a while ago. I wasn't aware that you had a Snappy as well at the time. The 2 4 4 on 44 is far more obscure, as it's so rare. It's just because if you held the 2 on Reel 1 and 4 on Reel 3, then you'd want a zero to take you to 50 (down the snake to 5 nudges). It can only try and avoid a win by aiming for square 52, but to do that, it'd drop a 2 in and give you a 20p win. It can't spin back to the 4 to take you to 54. Any other number gives a win. It'd be the same with 2 4 2 on 46, or 2 4 0 on 48.
Wow - that explains why Chris said exactly what you did 🤡 I’ve only had her since November and only once has she given 1-3-9 and held - and yes, she did give a win, after a lot of thought when I pressed ‘start’. I’m looking forward to trying to figure out how to operate her in door-open mode!

Nice video, and nicely played. It would have been interesting to see the autonudge bug
Thank you very much.
