I have enough MP's to buy the 4300 Timmies that I need to get me to the next medal level for CR advancement (I get +100 CR's if I do it) but that'll put my MP balance down to zero............which means even though I'll have CR's, I won't be able to do a whole lot with them.

AAAAGGGGHHHHHH

Decisions!!!!!!

[crooks.a]

Well, now you have enough MP's to buy 4300 Timmies and have 1000 MP leftover.

[NavyShooter]

I'm spent.....

4258 timmies

Plus 1000 MP's for the medal.

Now my CR regen is 5:10!

[crooks.a]

Maybe I should save up and buy 5000 Timmies. That would get me +175 CR and cost 6700 MP.

[NavyShooter]

Well, it's a worthy goal....

NS

[bdave]

I'm currently in the process of buying those 5000 timmies so I can get that +100CR medal.
Painfully slow :\

[NavyShooter]

Ayup, and I have a very slow ladder to climb to get my Milpoints back up again....*sigh*

NS

[NavyShooter]

Well,

It's paid off.....ish....I've moved up 3 levels in an evening, and maybe a 4th....

[NavyShooter]

Nope, only 3 tonite.....lost 38 CR on one mission failure.....*sigh*   close, but not enough.

I bought a bunch of Timmie's close to the beginning to get me over the 1000 item mark.  I've been tempted to go for the 5000 too, but I have a bit to go still on the MPs to get back up.  I just wish I had thought of it last week while I was busy buying tea and Afghanis for the 'Interview the Locals' mission as I know I went through lots then.  Oh well, another time.

But yes, the game certainly makes you think and wonder too many 'what ifs' and 'if only I...'.

[SevenSixTwo]

If we could sell Timmies i'd be fairly happy. Maybe 2 cups for 1 MP?

[bdave]

I want to be able to sell the damn army.ca shirts.
I bought 700 of them. They're 3MilPoints a pop!
Then I found timmies  Only 1 Milpoint a pop.

[NavyShooter]

I only have 4,450 Timmies left to drink, and I'm on level 11 for that mission....

(Note, the 4,258 that I bought were added to the 400-ish that I already had....)

[crooks.a]

Hmm. I think I might have to bring myself to 10,000 MP so I can do the following:

Purchase 3 MilPoints medals (for a total of +40 CR)

Purchase 5000 Timmies to be able to purchase 3 Equipment medals (for a total of +175 CR)

That would be a grand total of +215 CR, and would cost me about 7000MP (so then I would have enough for MilPoints spent medals ).

[airmich]

I'm inching closer to the 5000 MP mark.  I'm getting anxious to buy to get the Level 5 of Equipment owned.  Very tempting to buy some MPs since I would need more then 5000 anyway to cash in the medal.  But I will try to remain calm and patient and let the amount get up on it's own.  Patience!

[NavyShooter]

This thread started a very busy day.....now things have slowed up again for me.  I don't have enough CR's to level up more than once every couple of days.  Especially when it takes 150% of my CR's to knock down another insurgency.

On the plus side, I have 7 insurgencies cleared now.....

[NavyShooter]

2,716 Timmies left....I'm burning through them in an effort to obtain some INT.....good progression that way ;-)

NS

[MJP]

Me too

Moi aussi.  I have been very lucky lately with Int gathered and with the metric buttload of timmies I bought it makes sense.

[crooks.a]

Well, I finally got my goal, and I managed to go from 140CR to 350CR (bringing my time down to 4:00/CR) with about 7000MPs. A good purchase, if I do say so myself. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem like there are any other medals that will be able to give me big CR bonuses (unless I want to save up to 50,000 MPs).

I managed to get 790 Int in about 40 Timmies missions, and I still have 4600 Timmies left.

[NavyShooter]

In a week, I've just about used up 1000 timmies....seeing as I'm using 17 per mission now....they're starting to drop in total....I never thought I'd use 'em all...guess I was wrong!

Haha...sigh...me too... I wish would put a no cost low level CR:CE in. That might make it unfair though.

I see you are making big gains today. I have to wait till the new dailies come up to start working on some more money for int.

[crooks.a]

Today marks the day that I depleted my cups of Double Doubles. I have one cup remaining.

I ended up using about 850 cups just today, but it helped me move up the three ranks, getting the daily challenge (and in turn, the AtD challenge).

I should get 5,000 milpoints for moving up 3 ranks, 22,000 a pop right now! At least the time spent playing was easy enough.

How do you guys manage time spent playing? Unless I spam refresh I get 0 time spent playing. I dont even have the 72 hours time spent playing yet.
