Actually, the CCG report form doesn't allow you to report suit level in enough detail to report it as HW49...just HW40, so when we use the form and cut and paste to this forum, we have to go back and manually add the detail of the suit level. Some folks don't bother with that. But hey! Congratulations on Maxing!!!! Alvin and I look forward to that day ourselves.

Congrats on Maxing!!!

Fun besides that and this was a key run too!!! Great job Cool Bongo Dandyroni on that new key!!!

So... um... Not sure what happened. Thanks for reporting this so I could give my take and see if this has happened to someone before. Apparently the "Sad Bug" hit us both or something. It's true, Silly threw out 2 Unites, getting me back up to full laff. Then I got hit for -17. After that, I went sad, to which I said "huh?"... perhaps I took the wrong math classes in school. And true, MC had the sad bug. "I don't believe this!" "Welcome to Toontown". (Second Clerk Clara I missed in a row because of Toontown being mean... man!)

[Cool Bongo Dandyroni]

I also want to say sorry to the 2 ubers(Mountai Cat and Fly Swatter)that we lost in the skele round. I always feel I let you guys down when you get bit that way. I started to pull the train trap out for that round, but was afraid of a miss and I knew it would be hard for you guys to survive a 4 cog attack. I think it was the cog that lure effect had ended on that got the first one of you. I will forever kick myself for not pulling that train trap that round. Forgive me guys. BTW, thanks for finding me in the playground afterward and congratulating me, that let me know you didn't hold any grudges against me for your going sad. If you need any help getting your gags built back up, let me know. And to the poor fellow that we lost in the pie round, I don't think he knew to jump when the VP jumped. I realize he was a CC1 and probably was a first timer. I feel bad about that one also, I was trying to toon him up when the VP jumped and got him for the last of his points. I remember when I was CC1 way back in the days before Donalds Dreamland, and how I didn't know what was going on during my first trip to the VP. Maybe next time he will have figured it out.

And guess what! I missed the Clerk Clara because evey slot was full, I meant to get rid of something during the battle to have a slot for her and forgot to do it. Oh well next time maybe!

Great run! Special thanks to everyone for their help retrieving the key!

Thank you and by your leave...

This was an interesting run. Not a big crowd at the milling around area. Probably three or four elevator loads. The Solstice pair was there along with White Nights and this giant monkey aptly named Goliath. Bumblebubble was there, and some others I don’t know or don’t know that I know. Some day I hope to be able to get Alvin on an elevator gracefully. There seems to be an invisible wall everywhere but in the very center of the opening and we seem to always miss on our first attempt. But not to worry, we were pleased to see we were aboard with Miss Flip and the twin black cats, Summer and Winter Solstice; also Princess Glitter who I have battled with before. We only had two little suits and one medium. During the cog round Alvin was sided with Max, Summer and Lady Poppy. Early on we were treated to a ToonTanic drop that is always fun to watch. Meanwhile on Miss Flip’s side I heard a train. Our side followed up next set with a wedding cake against a row of twelves. Alvin threw in a birthday cake to get the same gag bonus and the others used sound to stun. Well the sound missed and my birthday cake missed. The wedding cake hit but left us a row of angry 12s. We lured and recovered and got things back under control. I had a couple of lure misses which is very unusual. My lures are usually rock solid. Then we sort of fell back onto sound since that seemed to be working well. We finished a bit before the other side and ran over to cheer. My finger was poised over the F9 button in case Miss Flip tried to whip out something stinky, but she did not. As I prepared to fire my cannon, this set of purple ears appeared in front of my cannon. It was Miss Flip jumping up and down in front of me. Didn’t know you could do that! I should have wasted a couple of shots on her but was laughing too hard. We seated 7 jurors which was not real bad. I don’t think Alvin got any. I will have to try to pay attention to what toon Alvin is launching and to get a screenshot of the jury next time…providing there are no purple eared distractions. The trial itself was a struggle from where we stood. We seemed to be way undermanned for stunning. Alvin and Princess Glitter and Max seemed to be carrying most of that burden. Not sure why and did not really have much time to look around. Princess Glitter was getting hammered and missing jumps and was often much in need of toon ups. Alvin also missed a couple of jumps and it was tough avoiding all those gavels. It gripes me that when he gets hit or runs into one, when ToonTown puts him back on his feet, he is aimed directly at the gavel pivot point…and usually runs into it again. I would sure like to hear something about the strategy here from the more experienced people. Why not more folks stunning? I saw a statement by Max once, something about “you should stun cogs”, I don’t know who it was directed at but I remember thinking, “I really am trying!” We never got an “all stunned” heal and I had to use a unite toonup at one point to protect Princess Glitter from a stray evidence hit while I ran for more evidence. I know there was another unite thrown over near the pans also. So, I was not even sure we were winning. Alvin was three stunning as best he could. And Princess Glitter was hanging in there with laff so low sometimes I was really worried we couldn’t get to her in time. But we made it. Perhaps it was not as exciting for the more experienced players but it sure had Alvin and I all puckered up. The CJ jumped 18 times and Alvin went for evidence at least 8 times. The entire battle lasted nearly half an hour with 9 minutes for cogs and 13 minutes for the trial.
Alvin and I can now summon a head hunter invasion!

I was going to steal your cannon Alvin but you hopped on too quick! A lot of toons don't hop on their cannon immediately b/c your seated jurors get taken over by cogs anyway. I usually wait till the clock is down to about 35-40 seconds to ensure that I have time to get lined up and then start firing away. The last 25 seconds of the cannon round are the most important.

That's awesome you got a HH invasion!

Sorry for missing some suits and LL.

Pardon me that I have missing information. I must have had my finger on the F8 button or something as I missed the elevator shots, or perhaps I fumble fingered them into cyber oblivion. In addition, I lost track of my audio recorder status and apparently turned it off 2.5 seconds after turning it on. But I do have one excuse. The dang funeral dirge music glitch hit me and it was very distracting. Yeah, I know I can turn sound off but I use it to keep track of events. Dunno if you ever noticed, but everything in ToonTown seems to have its own specific noise. It is amazing how much I have come to rely on those for my report. Now I am stuck with just the screenshots of the actual battles. My friend Queen Biscuit and I had just finished a VP run and decided to do this run. In the collection area I noticed omeomi, LVTP, White knights, and probably some others I have forgotten. Of course Queen Biscuit and I did not get on the same elevator. That seems to be a rarity for some reason. But I was on with Vicky Wildgoose who is an excellent stomper. With over half the load being big suits I was not worried. For the cog round I was sided with Chess, Three Lions, and Miss Cat Bait. I do not remember anything unusual in the cog battle. It seemed to go well on both sides. I began to worry on our way to the CFO arena. There were an awful lot of indications that folks wanted to goon stomp. Alvin has only craned in actual combat once before. He was dropped into a quadrant with one of the mice ladies I believe, and we both turned and looked at the crane control without much enthusiasm. Well, time to step up, Alvin took the podium. He put on an impressive display of lashing around with a magnet and throwing safes here and there. Every once in a while he got a goon on his crane and did actually manage a few hits. And he scored at least one, maybe two safe hits. He did NOT put a safe on the CFO’s head! First thing you know there were reds coming out and Alvin grabbed one and made another hit. And then it was over. Well good grief. Alvin was knocked on his hams only once that I remember, and never did have to go treasure hunting. I have no idea if anyone had to use any unites or not. It is all just a blur of feverish thrashing around. But we won, and everyone danced! Miss Cat Bait even got a promotion. My screen shots show Duke was craning, but I have no idea who else. The battle lasted only 18 minutes. Good job everyone!

Rats - lost 2 in the crane round of this particular CFO. Teamwork in the cogs was great! Crane round started off good - then we got swarmed with reds. I noticed Lady Twinkletoes was down pretty low in laff (I was getting laff on other toons at the time and she was up in the corner of my screen still - phew!) I got rayed by a goon and was down myself so I ran over to where they were stomping and threw an 80 unite hoping it would bring her and her stomping partner back up. Not sure where or when we lost Tammy Jr and Lady Candy, heard the sad song, but couldn't figure out who it was. We sent him packing still in the end - Woohoo!
