    So far, I've recieved the stat increases, the mace, and 400,000 quest experience points for my main character from the machine. Is there anything else the machine will give, and what is the maximum amount of experience points I can get from it?

    Apart from a couple of potions, drained levels, intelligence penalties etc... No. Not anything I know of, at least. I don't know how much experience you can get, but it's definately more than 400000. I'd guess that you can get an infinite amount, if you're willing to sacrifice most of your spare time for it... ;)

    *SPOILER*

    Here is a complete list of the valid combinations:

    Triangle Green Medium > Storm Star +3 Blue Green Long > Gain Magic Res.
    Circle Blue Long > +1 INT
    Square Blue Short > +1 DEX
    Red Green Short > +1 CHA
    Circle Square Triangle > +1 WIS
    Circle Red Long > +1 CON
    Square Short Medium > +1 STR
    Triangle Red Medium > Exit to next level

    Note: You can only do the Stat bonuses ONCE.

    If you enter in an INVALID combination, you get some really bad random effects (well, mostly bad):

    10% chance to gain a Potion of Superior Healing.
    10% chance to get 100,000 experience (only for whoever used it)
    10% chance to become Imprisoned (bad if it's your main character)
    10% chance for 50 fire damage
    10% chance turned to stone (bad if it's your main character)
    10% chance to lose 1 INT
    10% chance for 75 lightning damage
    10% chance to be poisoned
    10% chance to lose 15 levels
    10% chance to lose 1 DEX

    -Took me years to figure this out ;)

    Ok, thanks. I got up to 600,000 exp points and I'm quitting there. I'm too sick of getting turned to stone, heh.

    As did I, but it must have taken a long time to work out the possibilities for the wrong combinations.
