Wrong strips?

[stayouttadabunker]

My S+ Triple Play 3CM kit locked up on "1" coin accepted, when I had a ( Clown/Dbl.Jackpot/Triple Jackpot ) for 1,199 credits.
I have it set to lock up at 1,000 credits or more.
I could see it locking up if , I had played 2 coins, but I had only played 1 coin at a time.
I had a "1" in the "coins played" display when it locked up.

In order from left to right are the strips :
Reel 1=#85873300
Reel 2=#85873300
Reel 3=#85873400.
Are these strips the right ones in their correct reels?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I may have to get a new set of strips?

I think it did what it was supposed to do.

Clown, Dbl, Triple on the 3cm pays 1199 for 1 coin bet, 2400 for 2 coins, and 5000 for 3 coins.

If you have is set to lock up on 1000 credits and you won 1199, it should lock up.

Looking at the glass:



It looks like a pay of Double, Clown, Triple pays 1199 with a one coin bet.

I'm not 100% familiar with the theme, but is it supposed to be possible to hit Clown, Double, Triple (as you did) which would pay the same?  The only difference is the placement of the first two symbols.

Hi;  go to reel/program test # 4 in coins played window,S+ diagnostic tests this will verify paytable versus glass werus strips. It will only show 1st and 3rd coin payout.

I am such an idiot...I goofed...I meant to say 2CM...not 3CM...sorry for the confusion.
Does anyone know the strip order for the 2 CM Triple Play game?
The award glass is a 2CM glass.

Look at the glass again. Look on the right side where the hole is for the insert. The clown and dbl symbol positions are reversed on the right side -- because the pays are the same just as you said. The clown symbol is partly lost because of the hole for the jackpot insert.

The 2cm still pays the same 1199 for that combination for 1 coin bet. So if you have your machine set to lock up on 1000 it should have locked up.

P.S. I own the 3 line version of this kit, and I promise you that clown/dbl/trpl pays 1199 for one coin in the cm version.

so the order of the symbols: clown/Dbl.Jackpot/Triple Jackpot.....doesnt matter?
It should still pay 1,199 whether you play 1 or 2 coins?
What is confusing me is that the symbols that were shown on the payline matched the right right of the award glass symbols like as if you would need 2 coins to win it.

No, it should pay 1199 for one coin. For two coins it should pay 2500 on your 2cm theme. But the order doesn't matter: clown/double or double/clown pay the same.

If you look at the game bible, the paytable (132A) uses AAB strips. The first two are identical; the third is different. You won't have mixed them up because the triple jackpot symbol only appears on the third strip, and there are no clowns or double jackpots on the third strip.

No, it's 1199 for one coin, and the second coin pays the second highest award (either a progressive or whatever the second award normally pays).  The triple has to be on the third reel, but the clown and double can be in either order.

Beat me again by seconds, SF.

Mark, you may be confused because in the casinos, 1199 wasn't a hand pay. The idea was to set the payout one coin under 1200 to avoid having to file a W2G with the IRS. Dollar machines would still require a hand pay because the hopper wasn't big enough to hold that many coins, so the casinos set the hopper limit to 400 on those. But on the quarter machines, they would set the hopper limits to 1200 so that 1199 would pay to the tray.

If you want your machine to behave that way you could always change your lockup limit to 1200 from 1000. Then 1199 will pay to the meter/tray.


...On the other hand, you've already hit that prize. They don't grow on trees. That's a rare hit!    I've only hit it once.

Thanks for answers guys,
I didnt know you could still win 1,199 credits , even though the payline symbols didnt match the left side of the award glass symbols...follow me?

IGT does weird things with their award glass. Actually, in this case it's fairly straight forward. You have a single payout for x coins shown from left to right, but usually the symbols on both sides are identical. They do that for aesthetics. However, sometimes they don't have room for separate lines for different combinations that pay the same. When that happens, they put one on the left side and the other on the right side. The most common is two cherries and mixed bars, or three cherries and three single bars. Check out the 5x pay glass for those.

When it really gets weird is when they need to fill space. Look at 5 line RWB as an example. They list the 1-bar/2-bar/3-bar combination twice: once at the top of the right column, and once at the bottom of the middle column. There are actually several games that duplicate the same payout to fill an empty space.

It's kind of like writing the
the word "the" twice in a row in a sentence.
No one notices, especially when you break the
the two words up by starting a new line .

Again, Thanks a lot guys...I tried to give yous Karmas+ but I have to wait 12 hours...
These are all awesome answers of course and there's no where else on earth except here on NLG.com where that can happen!
Goes to show how great this website is....over and over...I have to make some more $$$ to put more money in the donation bin.

bet you have a small pay glass... snap a pic and post it

[stayouttadabunker]

I will take a photo in the morning and post it up...thanks for the interest.

You should also post a picture of the hit in the Best Hits at Home thread. There is only one way to hit that. (OK, two when you count the dbl/joker/triple combo). So the chances of your hitting that 1199 pay are overall, 1 in 131,072. You'll typically see four royal flushes on a VP machine for every one of these hits.

Who see's 4 royals? Not me
