Pardon me while I stand and applaud. This was, is, and continues to be the greatest source of frustration on TT. I would take any 66 laffer (with good gags) that respectfully asked if s/he could join and backed off if someone said no.

That said, there are times, Liberty, when luck isn't with a group and 4 L12 cogs will be hitting everyone in the group at 20-24 each. Do the math: 80-96. Even if I just tooned up your 66, you're still dead. This isn't common, especially now that people are getting the hang of things, but my 102 has been down to 40 or 50 more times than I care to recall.

Having maxed t/u, lure and/or sound would at least help your chances, but sometimes you just can't overcome the math.

Good luck, and have fun!
