Blowing off some steam

BatsDude360 · 08-18-2008, 10:06 PM

Ggggaaahhhh!!!! -Rips out own hair-!!! 100 buy in, 15 bet. 100, 115, 90, 150, 200! 250! 400! 360.... 300.... 200...100... 90....67...100! 30....25....15...0.. Would you like to buy more chips? NO! God damn it all to hell! Spinner box is way to boring and wastes so much money, and keystone takes for ever. Fortune's Tower is great and all but it seems everytime I actually start to have fun the game hates me and starts making me lose every single time! I tell myself "ill stop at 450" i get to 435 and it takes me all the way down! Burning every card, I just lost 9 or 10 rounds, getting nothing over 13! The only good games I have are in the tournament but you dont get any points. Now I love Fable but this Pub Game thing isn't that great. Its like the computer is plotting against me! Kicking me at every turn and when I go to switch from Fortunes Tower to Spinner Box it takes all my money and I win nothing! Im hoping that im not the only one that is having such horrible luck with this game. If it wasn't for the soundtrack and the concept art I would just delete this arcade game!

Well i owe Todd (Albion Knight) a HUGE thanks for my pub games and i suck at them so far. I think the bailiffs and debt collectors will love me when i get Fable 2.

having lots of money when you first start , for me it would make it boring. Id rather get some money and then invest it in houses and rent them out.

I only noticed this AFTER I said something in the "Pub Games Release" thread, but I get really ****ed off by them. I'm not a good gambler. The only one I can stand is Fortune's Tower, and the way I play I get screwed by the occasional ridiculous bad luck and the good luck never touches me.

I haven't played Fable 2 Pub Games yet but I'm really eager too. Looks like a lot of fun!

Spinnerbox is a losing proposition for the most part. Play the tournaments you get 100 spins and the most you can lose is your buy in. Once I get the big spinner achievement I probably won't play them as much.

Right now I just post on the forums and press A and wait to here the crowd claping. I spun over 4000 times the night before last and only lost 6000 gold. The good thing is that I got 400,000 XP for that. Who cares about gold my character is going to be mega powerfull I have over 1.5 million XP to spend once I merge

I'm not going to merge my first character but my second will be amazing.

You get XP? Huh, I missed that. But I'm a thousand gold in debt, which is not good.

I might be remembering wrong on that I haven't been able to find where PM says that it would be a little crazy anyway. I've been as much as 75,000 in debt

You'll get better

JackOfSpades · 08-20-2008, 06:25 PM

is the XP the number of points u have?? or is the gold turned into XP??

I might... but the problem is that I don't like playing the games (much). The only point to them is to get stuff, and I'm not all that good at that, either.
