| slug Falschmünze Explanation: Vielleicht gibt es auch einen Slang-Ausdruck, aber den kenne ich nicht. Hier sind die Berufsspieler gefragt. http://courts.state.ar.us/opinions/2002b/20021107/02-352.htm... In Rankin v. Mills Novelty Co, 182 Ark. 561, 32 S.W.2d 161 (1930), this court discussed Ark. Code Ann. § 5-66-104 (then Crawford and Moses Digest §2630) in the context of a machine that distributed mints for a nickel. When one placed a nickel in the machine, one received not only the mints but also between two and twenty slugs. http://users.pullman.com/fjstevens/tokens/bunco/bunco.html Manipulating Machines Sometimes a man who knows the game can manipulate the slot machine so as to make it deliver without putting in a coin. Other players put in slugs and take out nickels. http://www.admin.ch/ch/d/sr/941_11/a4.html http://www.chscene.ch/ccc/habi2/253_muenzpruefer.html |

| slug Metallscheibe Explanation: Für Geräte reichen auch Metallscheiben. Um es als gefälschte Münze bezeichen zu können, müsste wenigstens der Versuch erkennbar sein, die Scheibe wie eine Münze aussehen zu lassen. Wegen einem leeren Blatt Papier kann man ja auch nicht als Geldfälscher belangt werden. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 hr 4 mins (2003-11-01 10:00:12 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- gaffed dice: gezinkter Würfel Im Gegensatz zum Gleichwahrscheinlichkeitsansatz kann hier auch problemlos ein gezinkter Würfel beschrieben werden http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wahrscheinlichkeit |
