Time to Vent! Elevator Drama!

[superstubby]

Time to vent . . . I have been playing with 2 different toons, both of whom have over 100 LP's and lots o' gags . . . and numerous times now, I've put up with the drama of people jumping on and off the elevator, and several times now have been left alone only to need four more trips through the factory to try again.

Fighting the VP with a good team is a blast! But the elevator drama -- not so much fun!

I suppose I wish that toons with less than 60 LP couldn't even get in . . . they're just not going to make it (with very few exceptions) and asking them not to try is, well . . . merciful!

The VP game is fun, just wish the elevator drama would end!

Well two things:

1) If you get stuck (this has happened to be many times before) hit Alt-F4

For those of you that have trouble finding those keys, well here ya go



2) Dont go to the busy district. I know there's alot of toons in there but there's one thing ive learned: To many people at the elevader = trouble. Instead go to the lesser districts and try to find one with a few people in the lobby. Wait outside in the pit of a smaller district and call your friends. Have them call their friends, etc... I think you'll find the VP is much more fun that way.

If everyone wasn't going out of their way to ditch the <60 laffers, the elevator issues wouldn't even be an issue.

We have Seven 100-108laff toons with all maxed gags. We also have a 59laffer with 6 maxed gags. So I have a little knowledge of the game.

The problem isn't the <60 laffers!!!! The problem is the thousands of super under developed 100+ laffers who think they know it all.

Winning with <60 laffers should be easy for anyone who knows and understands the game. It actually make the battle much more interesting for me. I get zero satisfaction from winning with a crew of fully developed toons. Keeping the little guys alive is where I've always got my satisfaction.

The next time you get stuck, and for some reason can't alt f4 in time. Ask yourself if jumping on and off all those times to avoid a <60 laffer was worth it. There isn't much of a difference (gag wise) these days between a 60 and 100 laffer. Unless of course you count the last (usually well underdeveloped) gag track that the player picked up after the LOMII.

I agree with both 1 and 2 but 2 works well for me and alot of times you end up meeting up witha group of sf's or people Vping in a quite district from toontowncentral. that atleast normally happens when it's later in the night. not always tho. Sometime it takes me an hour to find a VPing group and then it's the elevator

I do that all the time! I call them, "private VP runs"! They are really fun and easy-- and I never go to the populated districts anymore-- filled with way too many newer toons, so it's hard to get a decent round in there these days.

Thanks, gang! I didn't know about the ALT-F4 trick -- I've always figured that once that door shut, my parts were gone -- even if I turned off my computer.

And, yes, I agree it is a lot of fun getting the newer guys through -- as long as they've got the hang of the game well enough to be good team players.
