Quit throwing the safes so high!

[Ice Cold]

Good grief... am I the only one here that knows how to crane effectively and knock off a helmet? I was in the cfo today with 3 toons with maxed cash on crane, I couldn't reach any safes, all of them insisted they could knock the helmet off.... but none of them came even close to doing it! Also, i noticed people are throwing goons way to high... sometimes even over the cfo's head to the person across from him/her. The trick to getting a good shot with a goon or to knock a helmet off with a safe is to get good momentum and let go early... the goon/safe will travel faster and straight into his head. I usually let go when the magnet is just above the chest of the CFO. If anyone has seen me in the cfo recently, I get - 14 for every tiny goon and -50 for almost every safe ( max damage) ... and that is why! that's also why it only takes me one try to get the helmet off.... everyone seems to think you have to let go at the very top of the swing in order to knock the helmet off, this isn't true.... if you don't believe me, try it for yourself... you might be suprised.

How come I never get to a CFO with folks as good as you? I am helpless at safes (CFO training helped, now I can at least pass safes to other craners).

Hope to see you in the CFO some day! I would love an easy win.

It's annoying getting people on the crane who don't know how or are doing a shotty job at it and when you ask if you can operate it they say no or Please don't bother me. Well..I'd like to get the CFO battle over and done with as fast as possible, if you aren't doing a good job then let someone else have a go.

I can kinda crane and I'll admit I'm one of those people that can't get the helmet off in one shot most of the time and let go of the goon/safe too late so it either flies over his head or misses entirely but if I see I'm not doing a good job then I get off and goon instead and let someone else have a go.

It's crazy how many people think they "rock" at craning when in fact they stink. Thanks for the advice though, I'll try and do that the next time I crane

I could cfo with you but u will have to answer some q's by pming me plus i have to get a code and i need like 2*_- something bux.
but pm me FIRST and i will try to see if i can help. Oh ya the trick into getting the helmet off is by getting a safe then swing it 2 times before you hit him.(NOTE: it will NOT work 100% of the time more like 85% of the time)!!
