I wouldn't mind venting my own set of frustrations on this subject.
Yes, I agree that the lowest toons SHOULD get the snacks, sometimes.
On the other hand...
I have done WAY too many CEO's where there were only a couple toons, myself included, in actually fighting the CEO. I've watched a group of 4 or 5 other toons stand by the conveyor belts taking snack after snack, not wathcing the CEO, getting hit because he targeted them, then taking more, not watching, getting hit again, so on and so forth. In the meantime, the 2 or 3 toons that are actually fighting the CEO are taking a few hits ourselves. We run for a snack or two, then go back to fighting. We get stunk throughout the rest of the battle and the victory dance IF they make it there on our hard work.
So, my NEW theory, and one I think I will hold on to, is that if I have a certain level of laff (70+) I will let the other toons have the snacks. If I get below that level, I WILL go for a little toon up as I am the one fighting.
Today I went into CEO with an elevator of 8. By the time the CEO was Yellow, we were down to 6 toons. He gets to orange and we are down to 4 toons. I have yet to take a hit, so I keep squirting. I see two of the 4 toons left at the conveyors. OK, no problem. The other toon fighting is down to 68 laff so I whispered, "Take the snacks before they fall" and she heads for the conveyor, only to be stunk by the other two toons. I think she got a whopping 3 laff points before they stunk her right out of there and the other conveyor belt was destroyed. Fortunately for us, those two toons both went sad in the midst of thier stinking her. Now it is just us two but she is taking hit after hit and soon after getting the CEO red, she goes sad.
Now, I am alone, run to the conveyor and manage to get my laff back up to 108 before he destroyed it. I am getting shots of -2 on him quite a bit. Finally get him to blinking, he charges me, I hit the button to get off the table and bam, nothing. He hits me, not for just the 34 laff that he is up to, but a double hit. I run to the other side and get on a table. Again, I can't get off in time and he hit me, but for only a single 34 this time. I am down to 8 laff point and he is blinking. I have no TU unites but am not leaving. He's blinking, how can I leave? The last hit was my own fault, just out of nervous excitement. Still, this brings me right back to the, "Save the snacks for sadder toons." If I am the one fighting and I am taking hits of 68 laff points, I completely and totally disagree. I will not only take the snacks, but suggest to others that are fighting to take them as well.
Survival is great, but teamwork means even those that are down to 20 laff points need to help fight too. Grab a snack, get on a table, squirt, go back and get another snack. BUT DO NOT STAND AT THE SNACK TABLE WAITING ON THEM TO COME OUT whining about needing a toon up!
Thank you for letting me vent, even though I am sure PLENTY will disagree with me.
