Talked to the slot manager on duty and asked about the 7 "Nine Fine Irishmen" strikes on the Aug. 2006 approval list. He said they have non-design issues with the strikes and he could not elaborate on what the issues were. My guess is they may have problems with the people who own the "Pub" which the strikes are based on. Mind you this is just a guess on my part.

They still have the strike machines in play with older strikes in the machines.
