Well, you gotta give the guy an 'E' for Effort...   :lol

Oh nuts. I have a book about software failures where this sort of thing is recorded. A programmer for a major company wrote the accounting software and hid a software bomb to take down the system should his name ever be removed from the payroll. He got fired then they took his name off a year later. When forensic recovered the code and found his name as the trigger, he went to jail.

Great scam, too bad someone already tried it and failed! Dumbass. Should have randomized the failure rate, then he might've gotten away with it a little longer.

hah I went to a arcade this last weekend and played this because it reminded me of going to chuck e cheese when I was younger.  My friend played right after me and the points were working and all of a sudden it sounded like a motor was stuck on.  We just walked away..it would be pretty funny if this was because of the dreaded Whack - A - Mole virus

It said "start-ups" which I took as meaning plugging in the machine/turning it on.  511 games in a highly trafficked arcade wouldn't last very long.
