GTB EM single player coin question

Archived from groups: rec.games.pinball (More info?)

If you have a chute set for 1 coin 1 play, and there are credits on the
credit wheel, I notice that while the game sets up it also subtracts a
credit. So in essence you lose your money.

Is that the way it would have worked "back in the day" I don't remember.
I'm thinking it must have been, because the reset sequence includes a pulse
to the subtract credit solenoid, but I don't remember it like that.

right. started from tilt.

The thing is that back in it's operating days I cannot see where

that's right, they always had that big ugly ZERO when you looked at them. i
recall looking for a machine that somebody had left credits on.

no, all original. my feeling is that back in the day if you had put money
in a machine with credits on it, it still would have subtracted a credit but
I don't ever remember somebody doing that.

all my other games were 2 games for a quarter and those always simply put
the credits on the wheel without starting.
