Title: New To NLG Post by: GamingOperationsGirl on August 10, 2009, 04:51:24 PM Hello to all! I'm new to NLG and I hope to get to know many of you and to be able to swap ideas and info.
A little about me: I'm twenty-something years old. :96- I have been in the Casino indusrty for over 4 years now. I worked my way up at my current casino and I'm now the Gaming Operations Manager. I like my work, learn something new every day. I enjoy tinkering with the slot machines, even though it can be frusterating at times. I like the satisfaction when I fix a machine that was thought to be "unfixable" by others. We have a lot of older slot machines on our gaming floor, a lot of these machines are so old that the parts needed to fix them are no longer being manufactured, and so it gets continually harder to find parts for them. Also we have to use Class III vendors to get all our parts.....don't get me started on the lame ass rules we have to follow and all the hoops we have to jump through. Makes me want to grap a sledge hammer and "fix" the machines that way. :25- I have many manuals at my fingertips, but sometimes they're over-rated. If anyone has any questions of me I'll be happy to answer if I can. Hope you all have a great day! :31- ~G.O.G.

I see your casino has about 150 slots, including a "Wheel of Fortune Classic", is that a stand alone? I know some will say that they weren't stand alone, but I'm sure that some were. Thanks, Wayne Title: Re: New To NLG Post by: Ron (r273) on August 10, 2009, 05:51:01 PM WELCOME GAMINGOPERATIONSGIRL It's always good to have more females on our site. It adds another prospective in figuring out some problems we all run across. We always need manuals of all types, thanks for the offer. Most of us have the "old" machines so don't be afraid to ask a question. Hope you have looked around as we have lots of answers including Rick's FAQ Files above, for the times the CRS might happen.

"Wheel of Fortune Classic", is that a stand alone? I know some will say that they weren't stand alone, but I'm sure that some were.
