"I Need More Gags"

[Flippers]

A quick reminder.

If you see a toon run into the Dollar Mint elevator alone and they say "I need more gags," this means they are not running the mint.

It means they're doing tasks in the train yard and are attempting to access any barrels prior to the first set of cogs. Some floors are great for this so you don't have to go all the way back to the DDL Playground.

If you saw a wabbit in purple do this a few times last night and this morning, it was to restock and continue. I make it a point to run there when there's no one around (not hard to do since everyone is busy shuffling at the boullion) so no one jumps in with me. I'll TP out before the first set of cogs.

Sounds like a good idea to me. If you say that and people still hop on, just say "No" and "I need more gags". If they stay, they can't fuss at you for doing your thing and getting out of there.

I'm not sure if you came up with this or not but, it's brilliant! Everyone should know about this so that they don't hop on and cause shuffling. It is also a great way to finish those Donald's Dreamland tasks quickly. I wish I knew about it when I was working on Cashbot parts for Prof. Dizzybrains Jr. I will definitely use this knowledge on future toons.

I started doing this on my DDL tasks. Too add to the speed of it, I pulled up the mint maps on this forum so that I could tell if there were barrels up ahead the second I entered the mint and didn't waste time running through looking for them.

That's the one thing I should do, so I can TP out as soon as I see the level.

Yeah it occurred to me back when I worked my second toon because for the first toon I made the mistake of taking a Dollar Mint task (no one likes the Dollar Mint lol) and realized during my five or so runs that sometimes the gags were first. So the second time around, when I used my six level 6 throws and squirts in the trainyard, I tried going in a few times and tooned up and got the gags I needed replenished.

Now if only people would stop shuffling off the elevator at the boullion so I can get my bucks. I think they read this and believe I jump into every mint with every toon just to gag up. I need 8900 folks - I've got all the gags and I don't have toon BO.

*grins* that kind of thinking is one of the reason I think you are one of the most ingenious players :-)

I might have to try that...and I can't wait for gardening - hopefully that is going to be another easy way to get gags when you are working the hqs rather than going all the way back to the shop

*lol* I've been thinking similar for my uber-in-hiding with the sell fac - nip in the side entrance, raid the lava room for beans (cos it can't fish) and gags - heh

[Twinkie]

oo that sounds like a nice idea so you dont have to waste 5 mins running back to the pg then back to the hq

[silly jaques hunkledorf]

Um..I thought the point of this topic is that it was a BAD idea..?

what he is saying is in any mint there are usually restock gag barrels and that people say i need more gags because they want to go back and use the barrels for gags and come back and so on lol

LOL that's very generous considering how often I get shuffled around even the CCG runs with competent suits and gags.

Gardening?

Is this some fancy way of lagging us further on the estate?

Hmmm not a bad thought. It's even more reliable in that you always know what you get in gags (water hose and elephant).

Note: When a friend and I gagged up yesterday at the Dollar Mint, we landed on the same level two times in a row (she got to practice the stacked gears and presses, since she's only been to the coin about twice so far). The barrel nook in the presses had different gags each time, so don't bother making note of which types of gags are on which floors.

What the original poster is saying is this...

If they get onto an elevator to a mint, and they are saying that they need more gags, they are saying that once they get into the mint, if there are any barrels BEFORE any cogs, they are going to hit those barrels and then leave. They will NOT fight any cogs at all. It's a way of gagging up without going to any playground/gag shop. So when they get on an empty elevator and say "I need more gags", they are letting others know their intention/purpose, and that you shouldn't join them, because they won't be fighting any cogs with you.

You can even gag up even more. Once you defeat the one set of cogs from the side enterance and get the gags from the lava room, you can go back past the stompers, skip the cogs in the pipe room, go through the factory (I call it the control room for some reason, either way, the one with all the goons). Out the other side and to the paint room. More beans and gags.
