[Miss Flip Flipperfoot]

I don't know if some things I have said elsewhere has been misunderstood or not. Really, it's my opinion and I AM ENTITLED to it. My opinion has not attacked the CCG nor anyone in particular so that shouldn't be an issue. I will pack when necessary. Many times, I have charged and been shuffled off to the side and under the steps. No biggie. If I am not ready to board yet, I am at the bottom of the steps. That's where I WILL stay if by chance I have something going on in RL or whatever else. Sometimes, I really don't feel like going. I just show up in case there are ACTUALLY leftovers. That is MY CHOICE and I don't feel like I should be persecuted if I choose to stand back. I only have two toons out of 12 that need VP promos at the moment and if they aren't ready, then I don't need to VP. I am just there as an extra if there are leftovers or to pack on. I've packed on many times when I didn't feel like going. Just because I am a Holly, and I see other Holly's on the vator, but I also see that there are for example two toons in need of a promo...I'm going to do everything I can to get one of them to board. If they don't, off I go. I have one eye on the clock, one hand over my up arrow and the other hand speedchatting trying to encourage them to not wait for me Same with the CJ. I don't need to go and am tickled to death when I don't have to go. When I am READY, I will proceed. Many many times I have tried to get someone to board before me and we know why...because they deserve a promo. Like I said though, if you snooze you lose. I'll pack on. Personally, I do like to let a few loads go off because of all those "big suits" that love to block the timer and the vator. I try to post a snapshot of those instances when it doesn't show that toons name or it shows the infamous "sorry I'm helping a friend". Those instances are when I packed on early. I don't care for it. Perhaps when I see people stop blocking, I'll go off on the first load again. I've done it before and I'm not shy. I tend to take things personal and if you see that I AM not following CCG guidelines then I expect you to tell me personally. This really irks me to see this thread when it is discussed in so many others. (Nothing against you or anyone else Scout, you know I love ya!)

Another thing, lately since test released boss hq, the appearances of any Ambassadors/Mods at the scheduled runs has been sporadic to say the least. Not knocking anyone. Everyone has priorities in RL too. I can think of one Ambassador that I have seen more of than any others whereas usually they're all there at each and every run. Maybe if they took runset shifts or something for the runs, things might go a bit smoother with the shuffling and packing. If you think about it, shuffling has been really bad since that horrible release on test.

And lastly, there has been one instance for example when a special run was set up 30 minutes after a scheduled VP and 15 minutes before a CFO and it took many people away from both of these regularly scheduled runs. I recall just the other day where 2 CFO vators took off and both came back sad. Whether it was inexperience, experience or whatever...the place was a ghost town because there were like 4-5 vators full at a non regularly scheduled run in the middle of 2 scheduled runs. It's all good that we want to help a young child through their first VP or CFO, but look at how it took away from the scheduled runs when this very well could have taken place during a regularly scheduled run. It took away WAY TOO MANY helpful people that could have been helping elsewhere at a posted scheduled regular scheduled run.

Just my two cents.
