Could somebody explain to me how I can get merits? I feel so dern stupid. I thought that as soon as I got my Sellbot disguise, I could defeat the factory forman and get merits. Yesterday I was helping my friend get his/her disguise and I ran though that factory at least 6 times, still no merits. I also got annihilated by the VP, I'm far too weak for that (64 laff, only throw gag maxed). Also, what do the merits go toward? I have the thingy that says 'ready for promotion', I'm just too dense to know what to do next.
Thanks a million.

Merit are sell bot points. When you have the "ready for Promotion" it means you have enough merits to fight the VP. The factory is were you get your suit parts and the best way to get merits quickly.
The VP - To fight the VP you go in one of the doors that is directly across the Oak Street Entrance. The evelator holds 8 toons. If you beat the VP you will be promoted and then you'll need to get more merits before fighting him again. There is a Suit - Merits chart in the Sell HQ forum.
Merits - killing a Sell cog anywhere will get you merits. The number of merits is determined by the cog level divided by 2 (rounded up). A level 5 cog will give you 3 merits. Invasions give double merits. You'll learn real fast that killing the Super in the factory during an invasion will double the merits you earned in the Factory.
Come on out and see us tonight and we'll see what we can do about getting you into a VP for a Win!

do you get double merits for ALL the cogs you killed in the factory whether or not there was an invasion going on when you were in the boiler room for example JUST because there was an invasion going on when you defeat the foreman? or is it like gag experience where it only doubles while the invasion is in progress for each set of cogs?
hope that makes sense

Hey There,
Makes total sense. Or, I'm on the same wavelength, at least. You only get double merits when you defeat the foreman during an invasion.

There could be NO invasion for the entire Factory and one starts right before you kill the Super / Foreman and you'll get double the merits for the entire factory. So with respect to bux/merits/notices/options..you only need to finish the 'factory' while an invasion is happening.
You can get double gag points in a building even after the invasion ends and you still are killing cogs on that floor. When going to the next floor you will lose the invasion bonus for the new floor but retain the previous floors bonuses. Example: You start a 5 story building as an invasion starts....you get to the 5th floor and take out one cog and then the invasion ends. All gag work done on that floor will include the invasion bonus even if another invasion doesn't start and you finish the building with no invasion.
Hope I haven't confused the issue...but there is a strangeness the bonuses on gags and 'merits'.

Nope, that clears it up for me...no more waiting around anywhere but at the end for me...I have seen toons do it both ways and was never sure which was right. Thanks Varmint
