INTRODUCTION
The most important thing to remember about the job you are about to begin is to be yourself! Your personality is
what keeps you from sounding like a computer. As you are taught the basic procedures, you’ll also learn how to
adapt them to your own style. Working in the game can be a lot of fun, once you have mastered the proper
technique.
ALWAYS REMEMBER THAT THE CUSTOMER IS THE MOST IMPORTANT PART OF THIS BUSINESS!
SMILE! A smile will do more for your business than anything else. It shows the customer that you are happy and
they will have some fun.
LOOK PEOPLE IN THE EYE! Making eye contact with people lets them know that you are talking to them, and not
just ‘rambling on’. A simple, “Hi! How are you?” or, “Hi there! Are y’all having fun today?” will let them know you
are talking to them. Follow up with, “Come over here and I’ll show you how to play this game!”
USE YOUR FREE HAND to motion the people you’re addressing to come over to your game.
ONCE THE CUSTOMER IS AT THE COUNTER, just be polite and explain the game in a simple manner.
WHEN THE GAME IS OVER, be certain to:
1. Acknowledge the winner.
2. Encourage the non-winners to play again, before they start to walk away.
3. Encourage the winner to play again and show him/her the next prize they could trade-up for if
they won again.
If you keep these basic procedures in mind, everything else should come together.

GETTING STARTED
No matter what part of the world you may be operating your equipment in, customers are the most important part of
making your operation successful. By keeping the customer happy, you will enjoy increased profits. When a
customer leaves your game one of two things will have occurred: either you have a satisfied customer who will play
that great new game the next time he goes by and will tell his/her friends about it; or, he/she will leave vowing that is
the last time that game will ever get his/her money! Of course we all agree that a happy customer is what success is
all about.
It is the operator’s job to ensure that the customer can easily understand the game and what the prizes are for each
win level. This task can only be achieved by the person who will actually be in the game working with the people.
There are important features to look for when hiring a game attendant. Always look for a friendly, outgoing
personality. Someone who is honest, dependable, and is used to working with money. The attendant is the one
who will be dealing with the customers on a one-on-one and day-to-day basis.
Although working with the public can be extremely trying at times, by insuring proper breaks for your employees you
will eliminate most problems. It is recommended to give the attendant a 30 to 60 minute break every two (2) hours,
this way you will always have a fast, outgoing, upbeat attendant running your game. If the attendant is polite and
friendly, the public will respond the same way.
WHY BREAKS ARE SO IMPORTANT
Operating a game is physically and mentally demanding. We found it is best to have two (2) attendants for each
game, or, three (3) attendants to rotate between two (2) games. This will keep them always at their peak
performance and alertness levels. We also suggest you have a part-time employee who can work during the
busy/peak times. This person is commonly referred to as the ‘second’ attendant. It’s also important for higher
profits. Having two (2) people collecting money can save time and allows the game operation to run much more
quickly and efficiently.

BOB’S SPACE RACERS® DOG POUNDER™ GROUP GAME MANUAL
3
GETTING READY FOR EACH DAY
We suggest you begin each day by checking the power. This procedure is done to insure that proper power is being
supplied to the game to avoid electrical damage, and/or malfunctions. To check the power coming into your trailer
look for the power checker with a toggle switch on it. This is mounted near the breaker panel. Toggle the switch to
the left to test one leg of the power, then right for the other leg of the power. The needle should read approximately
120VAC on each leg.
If either leg does not read 120VAC you will need to locate the supply generator or the city power connections and
check the voltage source there. This needs to be done every day because your trailer may have been hooked to a
different circuit by a show electrician, from one day to the next, without your knowledge.
If both legs do read 120VAC you can start the game up and check your sound level for both the microphone and the
sound track. We find it helpful to label the knobs on the amp so the operator/attendant can easily distinguish
between each knob.
It is important to be aware of your merchandise inventory throughout the day, especially during peak times. This will
ensure that your game doesn’t run out of prizes.

BOB’S SPACE RACERS® DOG POUNDER™ GROUP GAME MANUAL

GAME OPERATIONS
Okay, it’s time to begin! As each customer passes by they need to by acknowledged with a simple greeting. Such
as:
“Hello!”
“Hi, there!”
Followed by:
“How are you?”
“Have you seen this game?”
“Would you like to try it?”
“Are you ready to try this one?”
“Let me show you how to play!”
Remember, make eye contact with the person you are speaking to when you are trying to persuade them to come
over to play the game.
Getting the customer to the playing counter is half the battle. Once they are at the counter, quickly give a brief
explanation of how to play the game. Then try to get a few more players to begin the race. Note: It’s not necessary
to have a group of players to begin a skill type game (i.e. Sidewinder®, Roll-A-Ball®, Whac-A-Mole®, etc). Also, know
which prize you will be giving out.
During the game quickly check that all players are playing the game properly, and that they are at their correct play
stations. Also, note how many players you have. If possible, note the bystanders and point out any empty positions
for them to join in and play. Use the announcement of winners to encourage others to play. Also, get at least one
(1) player to pay for the next game before you give the winner his/her prize. For example:
Player at station #5 won and players at #1 and #2 were a very close second and third. You might say, “Hey!
#1, you were right there that time! #2 – you should’ve had it! You better try again! This could be your lucky
chance! How about another try?” Remember your winner, “Player #5, you were our lucky winner this time!
Look at what you’ve won!” At this point you hand him/her the prize and continue by pointing to the next
larger prize, “When you win again, you can trade this in for a larger prize!”

BOB’S SPACE RACERS® DOG POUNDER™ GROUP GAME MANUAL
5
GAME OPERATIONS
We’ve found that by showing the winner the next prize they are easily tempted to play again. Always encourage a
few more players; People are the key to attracting more people to the game.
However, there will be times when only a few customers will be in the playing area.
WHAT TO DO WHEN IT IS SLOW
How fast or slow the operator runs the game is referred to as the ‘pace’. Try to get at least three (3) or four (4)
players at all times. This is commonly referred to as ‘grinding’. Simply pay more attention to the players you have
already, take more time to explain the rules of the game, explain the prize levels – remember the more people you
have at your game the more people will come to your game. If the operator works the crowd as suggested they will
find that two (2) players can easily turn into three (3) or four (4), or many more players.
WHAT TO DO WHEN IT IS BUSY
At some point, while grinding, the operator will become ‘steady’. This simply means that there are at least five (5) or
more players at the game. When players are steady, the operator should pick up the pace. If the operator is really
good he/she can try to entice several players to try the game. At the same time the operator should be trying to get
at least ten or more players for each race – this would be considered busy.
It is important that the operator constantly try to get as many players as possible; remain very courteous; and,
explain or answer game operation questions as simply and as clearly as possible. The operator also needs to speak
clearly and loud enough for everyone to hear.
WHAT TO GIVE AWAY
We found in our operations that 28 to 30 cents on the dollar for give-away has proven the most profitable for us, and
the customer. This works out to be 28 to 30 percent of the cost of play. This is achieved by dividing your cost of
merchandise by your revenue for that race.
