Invasions & Skill Points

[nan]

On three different occassions, toons I have been playing with in the mint have wanted to wait for an invasion to be in progress during the fight with the Supervisor. Why is this? Do you get an increase in your skill points?

Yes, everything is doubled if you dance during an invasion... gag points and merits/bucks/jury notices. It can make the difference between less than 800 or more than 1500 jury notices, so if someone needs a lot of them (and bucks, etc) they will usually want you to hurry to dance at the supervisor before the current invasion ends, or to wait for a new invasion.

You get an increase in gag points and in merits, bux, or jury notices (depending on the cog). Actually everything I just mentioned is doubled. So when, you need 8900 bux, the difference between 800 and 1600 bux is alot. Believe me I just finished my 8900 bux...

If you're in Nutty River or Nutty Summit, waiting for an invasion is standard operating procedure these days. If toons are saying 'Wait a minute.', 'I need more Cogbucks/Jury Notices/Merits', 'Let's catch the next one', they're signalling they want to wait for an invasion to start if there's not one going when you reach the Foreman/Supervisor/Clerk. Most of the time, if you indicate you only have a few minutes left, or if you need to go, most will go ahead and engage. If you have the time though, it's appreciated to wait for an invasion since you double your haul.
