Got a strange request today
« on: April 08, 2019, 02:55:08 pm »
A architectural company in Missouri asked if I could find the mechanical drawings for a Twin Star B75 machine so they can 3D model it.
Does this make sense to anyone?

Yeah, but it would probably be easier to find an actual machine and either use the one or disassemble and copy the origional. Not sure the in depth tech drawings they are looking for would be available thru anyone but Bally. They want manufacturers specs

Bad:


That sounds VERY suspicious.  My spider scenes are tingling.  Why that particular game?  Why not just find a real world example?  How did they find you?  This sounds shady. 


You had better have someone start your car for a week or two just to be safe.  You are too important to your NLG family to take risks.


See you in July...

Sheepishly I must admit that I did not know what the hell it was either.  I just figured that if Alan was entertaining the request it must exist somewhere.  Yikes!

He typoed the request.

Here'ds what he was looking for: https://www.sggaming.com/games/scientific-games/twinstar-V75

Hardware specs and the cabinet brochure are password protected, hence they came to you. Run, run fast.

Interesting, he is on my "S" list.

Thanks for finding the info.
He is from Missouri, wonder if there is a rival gaming company there.

Id just simply respond and say that it is an odd request, one you dont get often, and ask for some background info.  Or tell them you dont have that information and even if you did its illegal to proliferate.
Id also check each morning for any brake fluid residue or pooling of any sort of fluid under your vehicle before entering it and setting it in motion.

I would have suggested that he write a letter to the company that makes the machines for more info, if he's legit? :spam: :Scratch-Head:
On the old NLG website, I posted quite a bit...I'd be getting strange inbox requests from strangers.  :EmoticonHelp4:
When I left/took a break (life gets in the way), I started getting inboxes asking me to come back to  :nlg-logo:
Why? I don't know... :rotfl:

Twinstar B-75, sounds more like a 1950’s air-o-plane.
