4 years ago, as a student taking the Java programming course instructed by Professor Dave Elliman, I was given the task to fix a broken code for a Fruit machine. It was my first approach to Swing and I really enjoyed it. Although broken, the code was really well designed that it really took me very little time to get the machine working. Being really enjoyed, I enhanced the code even more and the lab instructor was really impressed.
Last week while discussing with Sphinx about writing a Jackpot as the next applet chall, the old code came to my mind. And now it has been recycled to become a real cool challenge. Among the applets I have created, this one has the nicest graphics. The broken code now has become a real gem ;) But don't be lured for its disguise. You'll scream in horror once you see the devils that are protecting those precious gems :P
Curious? If you have yet to create an account at rankk, do so right now and climb up to level 7 to defeat this chall!

Ah, that was how it all began...that enhanced fruit machine of yours was destined to end at Rankk ;)
Ya, the graphics are really eye-catching. I was expecting the usual fruit or gods images for the wheels...and was amazed to see gorgeous looking...let it be a secret!
Great thanks, mate!
