I can't find any problems on the cog fights, except that Black Sporster suggested to use sound a few times in the cog round, and that Princess Marigold didn't go for the cog on the right, instead she went for the biggest cog on the field, since all the other cogs were lv.1's... looks like that was the "keep cogs awake" strategy I mentioned... lol, and in the VP battle, not much problems there either, except for two ghost jumps, I lost about 20 laff points... oh and it seems in the VP battle when I back up farther then most toons, it's not because I'm missing laff, it's because I always try and disable the front side of the VP, and it helps more if your at the areas I go to (I use a different camera view so I can see things differently) so listen, if I'm really low on laff, I'll be sure to tell ya!

I was playing Princess Marigold on this round, and Squeaky, that was my exact thought. I knew that most of the toons on the other side were high laff, and could probably handle the big cogs, so I chose to try and keep the big ones down for the low laffer's sake.

This was a fun run, well played by all.

And all I have to say about the run is: Why am I the one who always gets paired up with 3 on a 5 person run? *angry*

This actually was the scheduled run at 4:00 PM Central.
Sorry I didn't get laff. Saddened by the loss of three toons on this run.
I just knew we could get everyone through this one. Dont know what happened, but Super Nutty was all alone with 7 laff when we finished our skele battle with a level 11 Skele standing there staring at him with "kill a toon" on his mind. For Midnight Magic, Super Dog and Captain Monty Dandyfink we are truely sorry. Please try again with the CCG. We will get you through with a victory.

Hey Super Nutty here. Just wanted to thank you all for coming to my rescue, I was a definitely goner, Had only 5 laff points left and only had bill lure, no more hypno googles or big magnets. I used up 2 of my TOW toon up phrases. Im still baffled over how I survived, Myself, Chunky and Granny talked about that for awhile; they couldn't believe it either. To Midnight Magic, Super Dog and Captain Monty , Im so sorry I tried my best to get you all through. Please don't let this stop you, try again with the CCG.

Pretty good run. I have to say the cogs that came out on my side in the first round were really pretty easy. We had 1 level 12. When we finished up the other side with the lower laughs had 2 12's....

Sorry for not keeping better records, it couldn't be from making toooo many runs with you guys today and late last night. I'll try to do better next time.
Wrinklemonkey and I arrived just as the last elevator doors closed. I told him to wait, surely some other toons might be late too. With in minutes in came some toons.
We loaded 8 but one CC jumped at the last second. This was a smooth run, no real issues, a few missed lures, but that is how it has been as of late. The VP did his best to prevent us a victory.
Not sure how many of these toons were CCG, but they seemed to play right by the rules so I wanted to record it.
As always a fun time with all of you toons.

Well, it is safe to say that Lady Melody Purpleberry felt slightly out of place in this group, but she never for one moment doubted that all these RBs would escort her safely through the battle. What a great run! I had a blast being sided with Granny Pickles, and the crane fight was another fast one. Finally, congrats to Crazy Alvin for promoting to RB30 and earning a laff boost!! Great teamwork everyone!

Do you mean the new run times aren't options on the site? Because the schedule is on the site and if you aren't seeing it we need to figure that out.

I'm glad Poppy posted about her disconnect because I was certainly confused. She was there as the crane fight started, things got a little hairy but I didn't hear any sad sounds....and then she was not at the dance.

It was a very crowded lobby. With 4 runs yesterday, I'd say we have a very small portion of the reports. Come on ppl!!!! Report what you have...please.

0/7 Danced for Clerk Ray

+*Some Duck sad skelecog
*Hailey sad skelecog

+*Nicky Nuttycorn sad skelecog

Baby Duck Egg Sad cog
Lady Vilolet Electroswirl Sad Skelecog
swiftey wiftey sad cog
Super Noob sad cog

This ill-fated run was the result of entering the lobby early. I saw many toons around but no one was loading...no problem as I didn't think we had enough strong toons to pull it off. When I saw a big HW enter and head straight for the elevator I marched on right behind, thinking maybe we had enough firepower to "get'r done". However, that HW was 36 laff Some Duck . We had a Glad Hander or something like that jump off the full elevator but another smaller suit got on.

All but Lady Violet was knocked out on the other side during the cog round. We got over there just as she was dancing. I used a tow to restock everyone's gags and then was shocked to see Jabberboom throw a hole and leave.

At that point, it seemed rather hopeless but we continued on. Hailey and Lady Violet didn't last very long. Two, or was it 3 failed lures in a row spelled the end of Some Duck. After she went back to the playground a very strange thing happened. The cogs all hit me...np...I was ready to call it quits anyway. But when the next round started I had almost full laff. So...sort of the sad bug in reverse. All it meant was I had to fight a little longer before I got to go back to the playground. I almost had em. I thought i had my last cogs when that straggler emerged from the undercarriage. My doodle failed and I didn't have enough laff to take down a 12 befoe he took me out. Oh, well.

We went back later for a revenge run.

I saw a lot of missed lure and a few TOW's on the other side in the skelecog round. I think Sir Igor had his hands full keeping his group healthy.

After that..it was a cake walk to the finish. However, we didn't get done in time to catch the 11:00 CFO in Loopy Harbor 000ooooo Ya know...I might have been in Loony Harbor. That's twice in a row I've missed that 11:00 run cuz I had the wrong district!!! Oh well...Probably needed the sleep more than the TOW!

[GrannyPickles]

DM your so fast to get your reports out, lol! The first run as told to me from Baby Duck Egg was a result of a CC who was clueless to battle strategies. Actually Baby Duck Egg thought she was griefed, but I really think it was just from inexperience. She explained she was down to under 20 lps, and the CC blew an arouga on the lured cogs instead of tooning Eggie up, which sent them packing and feeling grieved. Interesting enough for our revenge run, the CC ended up making it on our elevator again, giving Baby Duck Egg lots of worry if we'd make it the 2nd time around.
DM, lol! Actually I forgot I was on my uber, I've been running Granny so much, I stormed in that lobby straight for the elevator, then thought "Oh no" but it was too late, was already on. I'm sorry I forgot to look around first, ooof.
Sir Igor really did spoil our side with great SOS, a toons hit and cogs miss, for some reason lure just kept missing round after round. And he used a TU TOW to save me from an early trip back. A very interesting night, I really had the chance to see some awesome players, as Nicky N and Sir Igor really kicked on their thinking caps. Although we went sad in the first VP DM, Nicky rocked, your such an exceptional player, on easy runs no one gets to see you or other exceptional players in action. It's VPs like that one when your skills show, whether win or loose. I was thrilled playing next to you

A few more details added. Miss Purrrdy Persimmons is a friend of mine in the game and tagged along. Don't think she's on TTC or knows of the CCG, but who knows. She was very happy afterwards.

I saw at least one Toons of the World Toon Up thrown while I was trying to stun the VP from behind. He was a bit jumpy.

Great CCG strategy execution on this run.

Wrinklemonkey SC

I was minding my own business (for a change) fishing in the brrrg when Poppy whispered that they needed more toons for the run. I tped up there to find a small group and after waiting a few minutes we had enough for an elevator load. Cog round was pretty uneventful other than a bit more gag training than we like to see. (Please remember that your new Birthday Cake takes a while to get to full force of 100.)

The craning was not good... I tried to get on a crane but the folks who had them wouldn't give up their spots. Too many safes on the head, too many safes thrown too soon, not enough goons thrown...

For those of you on this run who are reading this wondering why we lost check into taking the craning lessons, it's easy once you've had a lesson or two.

I think we were the first load to go, we had a jumper (a blue duck NC), thanks Blue Dog for filling in his spot. Our jumper, said No Thank You, and after I growled that wasn't nice, he whispered to me I stink! I checked members page, but think I'll forward the picture to DM maybe she can find him. I don't care if I get stinked, but geez I wasn't the chicken who jumped off the elevator due to lots of short suits!
This was a great run (blue ducks loss) the cog battle and CFO was easy as pie Awesome Teamwork all!
That'll Learn ya don't judge a Toon by his suit!

[Skinny Sandy Sniffleswirl]

Heheheh yes, I cut my entry short last night cause kids were driving me a lil bonkers

Mo Mo McZapper Used a Tow TU because there were a lot of us who were short and dynospeed said he needed a tune up, but it was very difficult to pie him because of his size. So during the pie process the Vp decided to jump thus making some of us miss the sound/visual so we got hit. I had to tell dynospeed to jump in speedchat because our pies, even though we are short, our pies still don't hit other short people

I'm glad Mo Mo used it, because I was already down about 55 I don't know what she gave, I think she filled me up! But I know when we got out of VP i was down about 50 again. So without Mo Mo's tu I think a few of us would have went sad...lol

I did have your Lp written down, just forgot to type it in Believe it or not I always do take screenies. But i'm too lazy to go and look for them. Plus They usually no longer exist when I try to get them because I'm a glitch fanatic in the mints and factories and my glitch key is the picture one ... Go figure...

Anyhow, it was a great run.. Everyone for the most part worked together! And it was good ccg strategy without a doubt!

GiGi

I was one of those working a crane on last night's run, and I apologize for some of my noob mistakes. I actually expected to go in and stomp goons, but someone (I thought it was Poppenzap) used the Speedchat and asked me to work the crane, so I did (maybe he was talking to someone else, sorry!).

Anyway, I was trying to only use Safes to knock off the helmet, and the goons when he was open, but my timing didn't always work out. Another problem, although I remembered how to work the crane (I read the CFO guide), I forgot how to LEAVE the crane! After several hits by goons, I was down in the 40's and asked for treasures, the stompers were good enough to get some, and I didn't know how to leave the crane to go get them. When I did get knocked off, I ran around to pick some up, but no one got back on the crane, so I ended up getting back on. I'll have to get better on the CFO speedchat next time.

Also, you mentioned Crane Training, and the CCG guidelines mentioned a training run, but I don't see any listed. Does anyone still do those? I'd be glad to sign up for one. Otherwise, I'm more than happy to stomp goons for a while too!

Otherwise we had a great group, our Cog round went very smooth, and I appreciate all the help from those that came to join our run.

I didn't find 11 pm central run time as an option for reporting the victory, so I put 9 pm since that is the closest.

The same is happening to me, I don't see the correct new run times, still the old ones. So I'm picking times that are as close as I can get it.
