My friend has a positive ROI at the Cyclone ticket machine game, and has proven it to me on several occasions.

Very cool. Do you mean one of these?:


How does he get the best return for his tickets? What's the best value/ticket on the gift wall? (Please say bouncy balls. Please say bouncy balls.)

Yes, one of those indeed. He is uncanny - I would say he can hit the jackpot 30%+ of the time. With practice, he hits it around 40%. It's sick.

You have to wait for the jackpot to get to a high enough point before whoring it repeatedly, otherwise it's not worth it. Luckily the Dave and Busters place in Cleveland has multiple Cyclone machines!

The best return on his tickets is not bouncy balls, unfortunately. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] It is indeed XBox games that can be resold easily.
