I am a high laffer and I do my best to help lower laffs than me. I have been playing this game for a long time, I have several toons now and it is very very hard to take random people under 100 laff in the bullion mint. Sometimes i get lucky and they are great players, but believe me, it is very rare that I find a lower laff who plays with skill. Oh, and this does not include super noobs, every super noob i've played with is awesome and incredibly skilled and I will take them with me anywhere! I am talking about regular toons under 100 laff. This is what happened to me today:

I go in the bullion with a 76 and a 55 and a 115.
The 76 isn't too bad.
The 55 INSISTS we use throw. (He had foghorn, but not bday cake)
I say, "Wait a minute, Let's use sound."
He says, "NO!!!"
We put up 2 eles and a fog, he puts up a blueberry pie.
I say, "wait a minute, please"
He says, "you stink"

If he would have used his ele, that would have left the 11s standing and we could have used throw to "clean up". And i would have encouraged him to use throw! (Or any other gag of his choice)

Instead we keep luring, throwing and tuning up cuz he wouldn't aim at the same cogs we did with our bigger throw.

After 30 minutes we had only killed 4 sets of cogs.

I say, "I only have a few minutes, lets use sound, please"
He says, "you stink, lets use throw"

The 115 laff and I need bucks of course and both the 76 and 55 refused to help with the 2 extra battles in the big room.

Can you see how this might be frustrating to a high toon?

See how I wasn't a know it all mean high laffer who jumped out of the elevator?

See how hard it is for me to think about trying to do that again?

I know when I make the choice to go with randoms that I have to suffer the consequences. I usually hope they play decent and if they make some mistakes, no biggie, but he was mean to ME, and I was only trying to help him.

I would not be posting this if it didn't happen alot. This isn't something that has happened to me just once. So, if you are under 100 laff and you are a good player and people jump off the elevators, I am so sorry, but I guarantee you they have run into the same scenario as I did today and it is just very hard to put yourself in that situation again.

The bullion is long and has lots of cogs, if a high laff suggests a strategy of sound and then gag training, take their advice. They are not being know it alls. Most of us are nice, we like giving out jellybeans and helping lower toons max their gags, but our time is valuable to us and it is selfish to try and use one gag only in a bullion.

When I got out of that mint I really wanted to log out and never play on a saturday again, I was so frustrated and actually hurt when he said I stink (I'm a softie, lol) but I decided to try one more and I found two toons Frizzy Lizzy Waterlilly and Taffy and one of their friends and they took me in the mint and we had a great time!!! Thanks for making me feel good again Frizzy and Taffy, you guys rock!

Have a nice day!
Point taken. I'm just saying that it doesn't mean that in most of everybody else's dictionary. No use of us arguing over something so petty.

I hate having a bad run like that, I'm sorry for your luck. Glad that others were there to make you 'laff' again. (Frizzy's my mom btw )

a n00b is someone annoying and who likes to ruin other peoples experience with the game, anyone can be a n00b, no matter how high or low they are. and, amazingly, highs can be very nice to you. I remeber my first C.F.O. victory...3 lvl 50 r.b.s, most likeley helping friends, lvl 23 r.b., lvl 9 money bag, lvl 11 l.s., and another lvl 1 short change, along with me...had I thought about I would have taken a screenie of the elevator...

Oooh yep that annoys me so much!

I have a few 100 laffer friends and one is 106 actually. They are nice but sometimes I will try to get on a building with them and stuff and they won't let me and stuff. It is sooo rude and so I x them. Yes I think it is risky for myself but I want to try. If you set your mind to it you can do anything!
Here is one thing that happened to me before...
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Stars: Noobs: La, Pa, Ca. Old High Laffed Toons: Tx, Ak, Az, Ar. (notice these are named after states lol)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Setting:In Sellbot HQ (Which I have won multiple times so it is not risky for me at all. I was like in 40 laffs back then.)

Tx, Ak, and Az gather around the elevator. It is 2:00 in the morning where they live so it is very late for them to be up at this hour. But where La, Pa, and Ca live, it is only 4:00 in the afternoon. (Tx ak and az are all sfs so are the noobs).

Tx:C'mon lets go already! Ar will never show up!
Az:We are waiting for my friend here hello? Earth to Tx!
Ak: Tx sometimes you are a little impatient.
Ar arrives and slips out of his black hole "Hi, Az!" he says.
Ar:Alright now lets go.
As they attempt to enter the elevator, out of nowhere pops La, Pa, and Ca, some noob toons. La: Laffs 17/17 Pa: Laffs 21/21 and Ca: Laffs 18/18.
Pa:C'mon lets make a run for it!
Ca:Yeah before the cool toons take over.
La:Totally!

Az:Please go away!
Tx:You stink!
Ar: What's that smell?
Ak: I think this is too risky for you.

La, Pa, Ca all together: I think this is to risky for you.
La:Please go away!
Caforgets about they aren't her sf's) You smell like fresh cow dung!
Pa: -giggles at Ca- You Stink! (in sf language: in otherwords right ca?)
Ca:Lol yep!

Tx goes in the elevator shouting "C'mon hurry!" to his sfs. Suddenly Pa, Ca, and La rush in with Tx.

Ak, Ar, and Az, burst into laughter knowing the trick he is going to pull on the noobs and the sight of him in their with the noobs.

The noob toons are a little glad that they will have a stronger more experienced toon for protection in battles.

Tx: Ha ha!
Tx jumps off right when it hits 1 but so does Pa, Ca, and La, who all had the same plan in mind.

Ar gasps.
Ar:Omg they were gonna abandon you Tx! Lol! That is such a stupid idea, of course you could make it on your own!
Ak, Az, Ar, La, Pa , and Ca watched as Tx attempted to leave alone.

Minutes later he showed up in the Sellbot Playground with -1 laffs.

It happens to us all

I know exactly what you mean Storm Center. The same thing happens to me all the time. If we get bombarded with "You stink" because we won't do what they want EVERY time & they don't play with teamwork then I tell them 3 times "Don't be mean" & if they don't cooperate, I just leave. If 3 toons are asking you to play different & you say stuff like "I don't care" then you don't deserve to be helped. They know the toons are reluctant to leave so they will treat them any way they want. If more toons would not put up with that nasty behavior, then things might change. Also, if someone is shuffling in & out, I will just leave. Saves lots of frustration.

Happy Tooning,

Mo Mo Sparkletoes
