Yes, I know that's a shock to some of you. I looked on the first page at least and didn't see any tips for a cash uber. A little monkey told me to take laff til about 6 (?) parts then take them and don't do them.  I guess my big question is do you take all the laff pts from tasks where you have to visit people? I have one part and one I'm working on. Any advice would be appreciated!

You do have to take all the tasks that have you visit people, so there's really no need to put those off.
After that, there will come at least one time when you will have to take a laff task in order to be offered any more parts. If it's not a visit task, you don't have to finish it. Make it one you won't work. When you consider which to take, don't forget to consider invasions, etc. You don't want to take a Bossbot task, planning to not complete it, if you're planning to work in the invasion district. I chose dollar mints because to me that is easier to control. I can help friends or work gags in any building or with any type cog. Quigley carries a Corporate Raider task but got stuck in an invasion and got half of them before he remembered....good grief!
Anyway with those, remember you do NOT have to complete them. You WILL end up with at least one spot on your tasks filled with an impossible task - probably two. It's ok because there will come a time soon after getting your suit when you are only offered laff tasks, anyway. SO it's not like you need those spots open for bean or effect tasks, because it ain't happnin'!
I got to 72 laff a lot sooner than I expected I would, and panicked, but it's ok. You should be able to stop there. If you have to take a laff task, take the lowest possible and shop for the absolute stupidest task you can possibly find! You'll be fine!

K thanks, I was thinking I had to do those which I think puts me at 71. So far I haven't gotten one from fishing. I'll just bug you if I see you on and I'm stuck. Seems like taking a bunch of one cog would be easy to avoid, but then who knows. Maybe you have something with the coin mint.

Just remember if you take a bunch of one cog, and end up on the top of a building when an invasion hits, you may eventually end up fulfilling that task? Just something to think about.
I'll help you any time, of course! *cringe*

Tim had to take two lp tasks. One was 5story boss buildings and the other in the Coin Mint, both avoidable. Let me know if you need any help.

I know you love helping that sweet dog Quigley.  Aarf aarf woof! Say what?
So you take two laff tasks to avoid? I'm stuck now and can't take anything but for fun so I guess I have to complete what I have. Which would be easier if I had the two computers, but oh well. I have been lucky with the random buildings so far.  You know I won't hesitate to bug you Z!

Dusty only had to take one lp task, but Tim had to take two. Don't worry if you do have to take two - just make sure they are ones that you can avoid.

Thanks for all the help! I guess once I finish the visit places laff tasks I just won't take any that I'll actually finish. Though I think your right about the mint tasks. Although the dollar would be more ideal, but we'll see what happens.

Come shopping with MissLure. She wants the laff tasks and she's only being offered the 400 5 story Boss buildings to be done when there is a full moon over Jupitar. I'll be happy to hand those over for a simple 100 cogs anywhere.

LOL Nanner! I think those are the same time Z's lure works.  Although I do have to thank Quigley for helping me with the 25 Movers and Shakers. Yes your lure worked everytime to help my little trap gags. I forgot how much a pain the House of Zzzzz guy is. Hmmm something about that Z!
Thanks to the other responses as well! If anyone really wants to help or is also in DDL then you can PM a code to me as....drum roll please....are you sitting down....Dippy has lots of room on her friends list.
She will have to venture in the mint soon I think and my guess is she won't be to popular with 71. I've read of the hardships some of you have with getting your ubers in the mint.

Well, I can run two but we would be in the mint forever. That's a hard one with all the jumping.  I've tried once and it wasn't too bad as the other was running too as well.

Both Noisy and Samhain carry 2 tasks they will never complete. I picked the same tasks for both out of sheer laziness, and because it's easier to remember. They hold 5 story bossbot buildings and Corporate Raiders. I managed to keep Samhain at 71 laff, but he is also carrying a laff from fish that he can never turn in.

I have my first task that I have to remember not to do. That should be fun. Had a close call today with the fish as I had to fish for kelp and something else. If I had to turn in my bucket, then I would have gotten a laff. Luckily I avoided it and I hope that is the last fishing I'll have to do. Now if the buildings would cooperate so I can actually find them without running up and down the streets three times.
At least I can edit this instead of posting twice. Last question (I hope), what gags are expected to be maxed to go on the uber run? Or at least what should I have as I was going to wait til I at least maxed TU. Thanks again for all the help!
