Does anyone have the slightest idea as to the requirements for bounce

How much play, how much bounceback?
Also, the best machines that I could find were 25c 9/6 JOB. Is there
anything better at either 25c or the $1 level?
The best place for machine inventory info here is the vpFREE Casino
Database. The NYNY page can be linked at: http://tinyurl.com/byzl
See the vpFREE group homepage for the primary link to the database.
The database reports $.25/$.50 single line, $.25 3/5 play (at which I
comfortably esconced myself for much of my late March stay), and $1
10-play and a 10+ coin single line.
Also worth keeping an eye on is a bank of $.25 3-play multigame
progressives w/ UD and 8/5 JB (where I hit a RF on that stay within 5
minutes of sitting down -- a bit to the disgruntlement of the others
on the bank who had been banging away at the attractive meters). The
meter advances quite quickly and can reach positive levels several
times a day.
I can't give you full details on play/bounceback (Free Play)
correlations. I've had two stays there. The first, in October, was a
one nighter during which I put in about $18K through the machines.
That generated an attractive offer on which I stayed in March,
including a room upgrade, $100 food credit, and $200 Free Play. That
makes it the best moderate play on the main strip in my book and I
heartily recommend it to all who are interested in staying on the
strip. The rooms may not be up to the quality of Caesars, but they're
pretty damn nice and we were very impressed with the upgraded room we
received on our return.
