I’m surprised the eclaw didn’t start smoking and yelling, “Error, does not compute!” At least it was polite enough to say, “than you”, after you fed it.
As to y the eclaw was giving extra tries is because it most likely wasn't set right through the coin mechanism error code 44 I'm guessing for the eclaw has something to do with the Gantry great video possiblity a board issues maybe a meter malfunction it could be a number of things
