Does anyone remember this fruity ? Was Secret 7 at first, but I think it ended up being upgraded within a couple of weeks to Silver 7. I rmember emptying it 3 times in a couple of hours, and suprise supries, it was gone from the site next time I visited.

The only other time I ever found one again it had mysteriously changed name, and the trick I used to empty it no longer worked

Is this the machine? I've never seen the machine myself but thought a pic may be appreciated.

Thats exactly it - oh the memories ......

So I'm presuming the one that made me a lot better off was called Silver 7. I thought it was quite unusual to change the whole lower glass as well as the chip on an upgrade.

Also - does anyone know where there are any Silver 7's ??? Worth asking, but not keeping my hopes up.

Cheers for the pic ...... Shadi.

I know where one is.In an arcade in Dundee ( Hynd's ).Its been ther for ages ! Its a bit of a long winded emptier though using the barcode mtr, unless you know another way that is quicker (takes 1-2 hours to mt )

When this machine was previewed at ATEI 1998/9 ( cant remember what year ) but BWB were making a big song and dance about the " unique " feature trail ( which was exploited by many a player).The realese date was put back and back and finally released some 12 months after going out on test ( similar to Battle Axe )

There was also a clone called "moon raker " or mine raker as well.But that didnt have a cashpot on it.

Hope that helps.

Didn't use the barcodes at all to empty it. Still wasn't the quickest empty - 1 to 2 hours is about right. Still - not a bad rate of pay though, and I could guarentee to empty it with just a fiver.

is the emptier for this still valid? I used to play this machine just for when it streaked to make money but i missed the boat on the mtr. if it's of no use anymore could someone post it, just out of interest!

If you can find the "Silver 7" version, then I guess the emptier will still work (the one I used anyway). But I only ever was one of them. I presume it was bugged in more ways than one, or they wouldn't have changed the machines name and glass too.

Me & a mate of mine used to play this machine a few years ago in a pub in town when we were out on the piss. Loved playing it although did not know the emptier !

I remember one of the barcode features used to require stopping all 3 reels seperately on the winline. A bitch to do when drunk but nothing more satisfying when it came off :wink:

So thats why there have been no new BWB machines for 2 years, and the BWB email address is bwb*somethingorother*@vivid-gaming.co.uk.

Shame though, Vivid machines make me want to vomit blood, but the old BWBs were fine little machines.
