On Missy, I carry 7 TU, 11 lure, 10 throw, and 7 squirt. Missy simply doesn't have a big enough bag to carry large amounts of squirt and lure like her big sisters do. I always try to put my gag out first so people don't think I'm freeloading, but if my gag is followed by gags that will sufficiently do the damage by themselves, I pull mine.

Interesting to see what other ubers carry. I carry 8 TU (4 group and 4 individual), 9 lure (3 mags, 3 $10, 3 goggles), 9 throw, and 9 squirt.

I know I have enough gags to use one every round of cogs and skels with some left over as long as things are going well and they're being killed consistently, so if I'm with a full load and the rest are biggish toons, I have no problem using a gag every round. If I'm on a short load, or some of the other toons are smaller, then sometimes I'll conserve gags by pulling mine, just as you said, or sometimes not picking in the first place, if the others will do enough damage to kill the cog anyway.

Pretty sure I used to carry the same exact gags you carry... then I got sided in skel with 3 lureless toons. I added 2 additional lure just to be on the safe side. I've also been on Missy when (SURPRISE!) someone higher laff than me went sad and I remained, so I needed those extra gags, which is why I conserve... "Waste not, want not." I've also ended a cog round with 17 gags, 7 of which were TU, simply because the OTHER side was so slow and had such poor teamwork that my side got the brunt of the battle.
