Last elevator of the morn...

[Little Trixie Huckleboing]

OMG!!! I am just mortified! I am SO sorry I unlured that one cog. I don't even know what I was thinking. I don't know well how the toontanic works and I guess I must have thinking it would of hit them all anyways. I have had strep for two weeks and I have a stress fracture in my ankle and.........That was the dumbest gag choice I've ever made in my entire gaming run! I wasn't sure what to choose and I waited and no one said anything. I should have know that lag was eating some of my choices though, because I had one weird round where I saw the choices were ---X so I choose the X'd cog and my son said the he choose the cog beside it because everyone else did. I leaned over and checked his screen and his had for the other two players --X- even though mine didn't. That round ended fine though with both cogs destroyed.

But......The whole rest of the time I spent thinking about that darn cog I unlured and that wasted Titantic. I am just SO sorry!


During the pie round someone whispered "I don't care" to my son's toon as I was pie'ing him. I don't know if that was an accidental whisper or not, but I did want to explain myself here jsut so everyone knows and doesn't wonder what the crazy duck is up to. I myself don't ask for a pie'ing until I'm down to less than 15 laff. That's when I leave my comfort zone and start worrying. My older son I don't worry about at all. He'll ask for a TU when he's down to about 20 laff. But Lemony is played by my younger son. A good player he may be, but he still has more courage than he has laff. He likes to try to pie the doors but can't stay out of harm's way. He has gone form 60 laff to 0 in just two jumps because he took so much damage from the bolts and gears. So for my own ease of mind as soon as he falls below 32 I run over and pie him back up to 40. I try to keep him about there. Most of the time now I don't even have to pie him at all. He's getting a lot better at jumping when he needs to and avoid those other attacks, but I sitll have him call out to me when he's at 32 laff.

And finally, I felt so bad about that one horse being left behind. I was uncertain what to do, as a toon who follows the rules I stayed put, my heart said that the 7 of us should have gotten off to let him on again. I know what happened to him, because it happens to my toon (who also has problems activating factory doors, BTW). He got off worried that the rest of us weren't getting on and after his "penalty" timer ran out he still couldn't get back on. I have to walk my toon back almost to the stairs and then back up to the lift to reactivate it again. Just walking at it or taking one or two steps back and trying again doesn't work. I felt so bad to watch that one toon get left behind. To whoever that was, I'm so sorry about that!


It was a great VP though, and we all danced, even with my really terrible mistake.
