GRRRRRRRRRRRRR I spent half an hour trying to go fight the V.P. and never did get to go. Why do people waste time jumping on and off the elevator? I would like to find 7 other people who are committed to playing TT, and go to a location where we can go fight the V.P. without having to play "Elevator Waste Your Time".

Check out the CCG (Cold Caller Guild) schedule on this website. They meet at certain times every day and evevator jumping is AGAINST the RULES! It does occassionally happen with people who aren't true member, but not much. Plus their winning rates are very high (95% or higher)

Zippity, you could just go to the VP's every other day with TTF people.
I have never gone sad, except the time when I went on a greifing run and the other toons abandoned me! (LOL!)

Okay, tonight I went to fight the V.P. with the CCG group, and although I did get to go fight the V.P. it wasn't without the elevator shuffle game, and our group went with one vacant space, because someone jumped off at the last second.
However, I have to give it a thumbs up, because I did actually get to go.
Thanks,
Zippity Doo Dah

Your not allowed to elevator shuffle. Your stuck with whatever you go in with so don't jump off at the last minute. Some people hate it so much they ban you and send nasty PMs. Not to scare you or anything.

I ran about 6 VPs in River today. Didn't have much shuffle compared to the CFO...it was crazy...then 129 griefer with a 114 (?) friend tried to kill 80 laff but we had the last laff...Right Princess Boo Boo?
Only problem on the VP was when a 25 laffer was treated badly...shuffle and stinkiness... I stayed behind and the next group took him in and made sure he danced! It is a little easier for me with a HW50 but that didn't make a difference in the CFO.

Done many 4 man VP and CFO and my main toon is lureless. You just need toons who know how to play and good teamwork.

The only time I jump off the elevator is when others jump off leaving only 2 to 3 toons on the elevator. No way in you know where am I about to go fight the VP with only three toons; that would be suicide.
I hate the shuffle. In fact I wish TT would set it up so once the elevator is full nobody can get off. And if someone reboots their computer after they are on the elevator, they lose all their gags, and laugh points.

I can understand the alt F4 thing if the doors close and you have fewer than 4. But you are right, the shuffle thing is tiresome. Sadie is working on the 5500 merits and it takes her a little longer, but anytime you want to go and I'm available, I'll go with you!
I'm part of CCG too, and the others on that forum are pretty strict about the shuffle thing. One toon flat out said in their post that they would only shuffle for a friend, and the rest of the board pretty much told them if you shuffle, no thanks. Unfortunately, it is a public game, and you can't control everyones behavior (darnit!) and I think a lot of the shuffle is a result of people's friends TP in and not knowing it's a CCG run.
The other biggest pet peeve of mine is the big suits standing in front of the elevator in CHQ. They block the whole door and the timer so you don't know everyone's left until the door has closed. I know a couple of them think it's a real laugh, I had a friend (someone on my friends list anyway) do it at a VP run one day a couple of months back (she was a big suit, nearly maxxed) and she whispered "watch this" or something to that effect, and loaded, waited for everyone else (5 little suits and 2 mid) then exited as the timer hit 0. Then she kept whispering "hee hee" and "ha ha". I rarely stink people, but I did tell her "stop that" and "that wasn't nice" a couple of times. When I finally loaded and stayed on, she loaded and stayed and didn't do that again, but a few days later left my list. No great loss I say.

If you get stuck and it's only you and three other people that are small you should escape using F4 + Alt. Just a trick to exit TT quick enough so you don't go sad. It works! CCG runs usually have really good toons there with ubers and big toons.

Varmint, I couldn't believe those 2 duckies griefing that 80!! That CFO was soooo frustrating, but with you craning, we made it!! Thanks for a great CFO!!
I haven't been to a VP in soooo long. After working my way through law, and playing more and more with experienced toons, I think I'm finding the VP and even the CFO to be a little frustrating. It MIGHT be different going on TTF runs/CCG runs, but I just would rather go when I am ready.

I have survived a three toon VP and it was a blast. I did it on purpose of course with two friends and have tried three toon CFO's but I was alone on the lureless mousie so it didn't go so good. People have also soloed both of those as well. It's like the other Zippy up there said that good teamwork can prevail over most obstacles. Of course gags missing is out of your control. I have not done many random VP's lately, but when I did all the CFO's the other day out of 13 only one time did I go sad and that was in the crane round. I find if I'm with toons with odd gag choices or not maxed gags that if I pick last I can attempt to cover enough for everyone to dance.
The CCG does have a high win rate, but I'll assume those are based on runs that people actually report. I have been on many runs that were never reported. The only time Dippy went sad in the CFO was on a CCG run and that one wasn't reported. I have had great success going with them though especially on my uber who I would never bring random. I don't jump off once I'm on even if others do as I can exit out like Goofo said. Plus short loads are a lot more fun than full loads. You can always come to our TTF runs too, of course, we go sad in there from time to time, but like the CCG will usually try to set up a revenge run.

Yes, a three toon is fun (of course you should be with people you know). Of course it never fails I'm on the one side when I do these  One of these days, when I actually get some TU unites, I have a friend who has solo'd the VP and she wants to do a 2 toon with me. That should be interesting  Also wants to do a 2 toon CFO which I'm game for....it's only beans!  I need another marathon CFO day
I agree PBB! I'm finding I want to do the VP less and less lately and I have no idea why. It can be as much fun with the right people and the cog part seems to be shortened but the risk just isn't there anymore (unless I'm sided with a certain orange mouse) so it makes it less interesting for me these days. Guess I'm starting to get TT jaded?
I've only been on maybe a handfull of CCG runs in the last year and one was just the other night (friends requests when I go) and I found it to be a whole lot different than when I use to run with them. Don't need a full load but when a big suit jumps at the last second it's NOT CCG.

I once got stuck with 3 other toons Goofo . . . AND THEY WERE ALL 129 LAFFERS!!!
I couldn't even believe my luck. They were all true friends and when I said that I needed a laugh boost they didn't give it to me. They wanted me to go sad and at the end I only had 6 of my 102 laugh points left.
