Playing DDR without paying.

Re: Playing DDR without paying.

Okay at my local arcade I play DDR right, when these teens come in and invade the DDR machine all the way till midnight. I stay to watch and see them play it without paying a single quarter! How they do this you ask? They go behind the DDR machine and do something, and that bass sound when you enter a quater plays like 25 times in a row in a split second. Then they come back out and play DDR with all those free games and did not insert a single coin. Is this right? I've played one game with them and I felt bad knowing that I was playing a game that was not payed for. The arcade attendants don't know about this as well. Should I report them?

if i were those teens and u reported them,id find u and probably rail ur face with my fist
k thx.
ps : dont be a dck

Re: Playing DDR without paying.

well its kinda sad when the arcade can make more money selling a ddr machine than they did in three years runing it because people find ways to get free games and hog the machine all day

Re: Playing DDR without paying.

The reason for this is probably because they pay for the money at the door, at the bowling alley im going to tomorrow *EXCITED* you can pay $25 and get free tokens until midnight.

Re: Playing DDR without paying.

One of my ambitions in life is to own an Arcade. Seriously. So I think I'll be talking to Nestlekwik about that some day.

Anyway. I was at an Arcade once and a similar thing was happening. These kids where messing around with an arcade. I think it was Time Crisis. It was that or House of the Dead 2, I loved those games. Anyway, the first couple of times I just laughed. Then a crowd grew and new people learnt how to do whatever they where doing. Eventually a guy came and told them to go away like. I then went to the machine and asked the guy what's going to happen. He then said, "If there's some way these kids are getting free goes, I'm not making money and the machine is useless. I'm going to have to get rid of it." Ever since that day, that arcade slowly started losing the Arcades and started replacing them with those grabbing metal claw machine and lame things like that. I really miss that arcade. Now, I have to drive 45 minutes away to play in a nice arcade.

That's a real life fable there. Moral? Don't steal free goes. The thought of free goes is awesome, I'll admit that. However, free goes result in no profit for the Arcade owner. Further resulting in losing that machine.

Re: Playing DDR without paying.

This one time one of my credits got stuck so I got the arcade guy to fix it and he left the operator menu open.

INSERT CREDIT INSERT CREDIT INSERT CREDIT INSERT CREDIT INSERT CREDIT INSERT CREDIT INSERT CREDIT INSERT CREDIT INSERT CREDIT INSERT CREDIT INSERT CREDIT INSERT CREDIT INSERT CREDIT INSERT CREDIT INSERT CREDIT INSERT CREDIT INSERT CREDIT INSERT CREDIT INSERT CREDIT INSERT CREDIT INSERT CREDIT INSERT CREDIT INSERT CREDIT INSERT CREDIT INSERT CREDIT INSERT CREDIT INSERT CREDIT INSERT CREDIT INSERT CREDIT INSERT CREDIT INSERT CREDIT INSERT CREDIT



What a day that was

Also I put it on joint premium and no menu timer, and the owners of the arcade dont know **** about itg so it never got turned back.

Remeber, these guys are just job finders, these guys might not know **** about anything. You're lucky you have somebody who knows how to fix an ITG coin operator. The guys back here? Well, they just stand there.....and we don't get to play for the rest of the day. Hell knows how they got it fixed overnight.

Re: Playing DDR without paying.

I'd report them, just don't tell them who it is, and make sure that they don't describe you. Then it will be so much better because then you won't break the rules, and they can't beat you up :P

Re: Playing DDR without paying.

I have done that before... But i thought it only worked with old games...

You go behind the machine and flip the RESET switch...
it gives you a free credit every time you flip the switch...

Its cool, but cruel.

Re: Playing DDR without paying.

Good thing where I live, people at the local arcade always pay for games, I once played a free game of ITG2 because someone put credits in and had to leave.

Re: Playing DDR without paying.

I highly agree. My arcade bought a 'Nova with the ddr extreme money..So I think you should pay for the games and get better things out of your money.

yeah but nova sucks.. do what im doing and convince your arcade that theyll get more buisness with an itg 2 dedicated cab.. its workin for me =)

Re: Playing DDR without paying.

Goddammit. I can't stand people like this. You or your parents have jobs. They pay for your necessities with their money. Arcade owners do the same. If you are trying to steal from them how are they supposed to pay for their families?

People like you piss me off. In my arcade no one does this, and no one watches the machine because they trust people. You are stealing.

It's like people doing work without getting paid. You should be ashamed.
