The investigators at Braniac have figured out the secret to a sure win at the crane game every time. Apparently, there’s a control box inside each of these machines that determine the chance of payout. If you have the patience and more importantly the time, to stand near the machine and watch it all day, you can figure out the winning payout pattern.
I think I’ll just stick with buying the candy grabber featured back in November.
Oh, I should do this next time I go to dave & busters. I should figure out their patterns!
OMG!!!!! all this time! that’s how they cheated me out of 10 dollars!
Thats fun useless knowledge at its finest!
Heh…I want to see 10 people who just watching on the box and waiting for some dummies…. :D
There was a time when i could get 2 or 3 in a row. Wonder what’s up with that pattern.
what if it’s set for every 20 times before a win?!!?
I’ll keep that in mind the next time I see one of those things :D, might just help me when a girl comes over ;)
if you’re close, try the one inside Dennys at Daly City. the grabber had a tight grip to it. i remember winning twice a while ago in less than 10 tries.
thats a lot of work for a stuffed animal
never been good at it, hope it will improve after watching how is done
LoL, david, thats so true haha, way to win a girls heart, you get to show off your skills and the toy can be a gift on the spot hehe
Those damn machines are total Rip-Off. Money grabbers and anti-human patience, just for a crazy-stupid grabber/grappler to get a mini plush toy. If you don’t have patience, don’t play it!!!
Plus, why place a sort of Blackbox type device inside the machine? Is that fair, for others?
^ Just gotta beat the system thats all :D but I wonder if the system works the same as here in Canada tho, if they have the black box and the winning ratios.
Just buy a damn stuff animal and quit wasting your time! :p
heartofjosh I concur wid u…a plush toy isn’t dat expensiv…so wel buy it den
Haha, try doing it at build a bear, and you’ll see how exspensive those teddy bears can be. :P
Darn it, no crane without a carnival, no carnival until september. I’ll let you guys know if it works in about 8 months :P
Haha, I kept winning these at a theme park. You’re unlikely to grab one properly so you have to look for a machine that’s quite full and knock one over into the hole.
