In my case... one of the lower level toons made sure that the other toons stayed Tooned up and vice versa.

Sorry, but I cant say i agree with these statements. MY thoughts are that if you have 3 or 4 100+ laff toons (even with no ubers) and you cant beat the vp, it's because you didnt work well together. For example: look at ccg victories. Anyone who has a suit can go in to ccg, and they RARELY have no one make it past the vp. SO keep an open mind. Through teamwork the vp is easy.

exactly, low laffers aren't expierenced enough to be doing the VP, they ruin things and put you at risk. You never see somebody that has multiple toons and has expierence do the VP with a one of their low laff toons...

But tell me this: How can they learn if they dont mess up?

[Verkew]

well they should learn by all the people telling them it's too risky and telling them to go away, but they do not listen!

not all low laffers are bad, ppl who dont know what to do are bad!!! i blam tutorial, needs to show you what to do with sound, lure, trap, drop, and toon-up with the tutorial guy as your partner telling you what to do. Would keep noobs from messing up

[Tyler]

I dont go away with my low laff 65 laff that is because im experianced enough and they should ahve away tat tells you that or soemthing right?

[Tyler]

Cogs fear is right they should do that in turtorial and say what they do and explain the vp and say go ijn there when your strong.

That's not the biggest worry. A noob messing up the gag plans in the first two rounds can be annoying, but is normally correctable. Okay, sometimes that noob gets hit by four sets of 24's from Skelecog L12's and is history... correction, normally gets hammerred by those cogs but when they don't know how to do the third round, then you're in trouble.

It's fine if you've got 8 60LP or 8 100+LP - if nobody knows to gum up the works, then you're there all day with no end in site!

I went into a VP about 2 months ago with 3 toons who had 55-65 laff points. One of them just got sound, and he used the bike horn everytime! Even when I lured. I had 2 of them on my team on the first part (the normal cogs) and they all died really fast. We died on the first round. The VP is not a place for bike horns. Besides, people will let in 70+laff toons. Maybe even 60+.

You can ask anyone I know, I get sooo nervous around low laffers. I also hate when a 55 laffer would come in with up to a hose and a whole cream and like the bike horn and feather...I say "I think this is too risky for you. You need more Laff Points. Maybe some other time. Have a nice day!" I did 4 VPs yesterday ( ) and I did fine since there werent many CCs around...wonder why....As for helping lower level toons, I just say I told you so...I do help but you know what, Me and my SFs/Friends come before and newbie...

[harajuku_rocks]

OK I have something to say to all yall 100+ LP...
It really ticks me off when you dont want to go with yall. Its like you think we can't handle it.. well quess what we can. I think I can say this for all other 80- toons... I mean we are TRYING to do our toontask and then we want to do something fun but noooooo we cant ... I mean 100+ toons have all there gags fully done but we DONT... so theres your Your update
ya know something else that ticks me off is when yall jump on and off .. on and off the elevator... its not funny ... make up your mind... THATS ALL

[Lollipop Zooblegadget]

i'm 63 laff and I'M SICK OF THIS! the only reason i'm not vping right now is cuz i'm always getting "This is too risky for you" when they dont even see that i have advance gags! my friend had a friend who had a friend who was a level 2 cold caller and he was only SLIGHTLY higher laff than me, guess what he said... "I think this is too risky for you." and then he went off. so its not only higher laffs that do this ya know but still.. CUT IT OUT!

Being a L18 Hollywood, I've experienced all types - the good players, the bad players, the lazy players and the talented players. I'll jump onto an elevator with anyone. My only requisite is that I go in with 8 (although I have done 6 and 7 before now).

Yes, I've lost a few, but when I do lose, it's only a few parts which is not too bad with a helper and the side entrance. But I've seen it all before...

The toon who insists on practicing their Level 1 Gags (sound and drop are common), particularly on a L12 cog. Man, that's just nuts. Or with the googles out for the L12, the last toon brings out the red magnets (ARRRGH!!!)

Bottom line, it's just a bunch of 1's and 0's on a monitor. It's fun, it's crazy' it's frustrating, it's... it's... it's just a game. Live with it, stay on the elevator, and just try your best.

PS - If you're really worried about the parts or merits, call me - I need merits all the time!
