While trying to fine tune the old Circus Queen today, my partner and I ran in to a problem we have yet to figure out. The payouts were starting to get a little screwy so we were concentrating on the search index switch adjustments and the control unit changeover switches 15A, 15-B. It all looked pretty good as far as in line scoring and section scoring. The OK seemed to start fine also, although we did have a couple of instances where the Magic screen and super section failed to light. But... if we had 3 or 4 lit in the OK, with the “3 or more in orange scores as green” lit, it would payout ( even if you had already collected green elsewhere) without stopping, ever, without a good swift tilt or power down. Any ideas on this one?
It’s got us baffled......

Thank you for your advice bingopodcast. I can’t get back to the machine until tomorrow, but I will check out the green replay counter first. I’m pretty darn sure that no other 3/4/5 green payouts scored improperly, but I will also verify that. You mentioned “odds discs” you are talking about the green score unit, is that right ?

I apologize for holding up this post, but was just able to get back to the Circus Queen today.... My partner went to a Bike Rally and so on.......
We tested several times today and it did pay correctly with only 3 in orange or would not pay if green had been collected already, as it should. We had trouble when we (placed) 4 in orange, runaway payouts even after collecting “in line “ green
scores. Also at one point even started the OK game by holding down the collect button during runaway payout.....we are still a bit baffled. Sorry again for the hold up .
