CJ fun

Well that CJ was interesting tonight. LOL! First I chose a wedding cake by accident when I wanted the piano. I then unite us for sound only to see we are done the cog round. LOL! My wireless internet went off twice but not enough to boot me.

We get to the last part and I get pounded by this one gavel. No matter which I way I move it comes down on me. I can only stun 3 cogs but with 2 or 3 of us stunning at one time or another we still had a hard time. I kept getting hit by evidence over and over. I used a unite on Maxi once and I myself was done to 40 laff before the nice little monkey Crazy threw some evidence my way. BTW, those monkey twins rock! I always enjoy playing with you two. What a nice couple you are!

No matter, it was a fun CJ. Most are boring but that one had a little excitement to it. LOL!

Love those monkeys, and sorry I missed out on the fun - not enough notices. Glad you had an interesting CJ!!! It is one of the most boring ones.

I don't even wanna hear it! While you were talking to me, I was in a 4 man stunless with 10 cogs. LOL!

Yeah, KINDA busy! LOL We only seated five. I think I was the only one to have bonus weight, not sure. Sally did better than she did last time in a stunless LOL. I think after watching them, I may need to write some sort of stunless CJ guide. Two of them weren't facing the cogs so they couldn't dodge. Sally learned from last time and stood at the back. i stood back there til I couldn't pound the evidence in fast, then threw one last unite and went all out against the scale and let the cogs pound me. My arm/shoulder is KILLING me now, but man it was fun. I threw four 40s and 2 20s. I think someone threw one other unite, not sure I was far away. They did a lot of tooning each other up. I had to call Sally off tooning me once. lol

Believe me, Eddiword and I missed her, too. We were down to the two of us fairly early in the cog round. There was a point I wasn't sure we were going to make it. You and Miss Fuzzybee handled the stunning well. I bounced back and forth between the stunning and the scale, mostly because I've never stunned before - this was my second CJ.

daddio....my sis is still feeling bad about it (even though she had no control over it). she spent the rest of the cj looking over my shoulder (she's visiting this weekend) cheering us all on and saying sorry alot.

if you aren't using a laptop keyboard, stunning is pretty easy. if you press the del key twice in a row as fast as you can, the evidence flies pretty low and it's easier to hit the cogs. and, speaking for me at least, i did appreciate the help stunning the cogs and you did a good job for it being just your 2nd cj. :thumbup1:

I'll be sure to get her to read this thread. :) And how can you say CJ is boring? It's fun! It just requires a bit of work.

I had +2 bonus weight (seated 2) and I was down to like 15 laff and I threw a tu 20 unite. When my evidence was missing, that's when I started throwing from next to the stand and that's when the cogs were really starting to lay into me, but at least when I was throwing evidence, it was hitting the pan.

When it comes to seating jurors, I follow a simple rule: Between 20 and 30 seconds left, I don't seat ANYONE. Simply because a cog will take that seat back in about 20 seconds, so I'll have to hit it again. I use the first part of the timer to get myself lined up for shooting, and then at 20 seconds, I start firing away. I've been able to get I think 4 jurors one time (although my best average is 3).

I think Eddie's primary interest in doing a CJ was to toy with his new gamepad. He got one just like mine and was eager to play with it and he knows I use it when playing TT. Hope he didn't disappoint with gag choices.

As for stunning/scaling. If it looks like help is needed for stunning (in the line of 8, 2 or more never seem to get dizzy or if there's a 9th and no one seems to be hitting it), then stun and stay there. If you happen to see Trish and me stunning the cogs (and there's only 8 or 9 of them), then we're fine, stay on the scale. When you go back and forth, you're creating an imbalance that won't ever level out. From the vantage point of the 9th cog, you can stun and scale with just a small turn, so when you notice that the line of 8 is getting well handled, you might try hitting that 9th and see if you can help trigger the bonus timer. Not only get everyone a +10 toonup, but then the evidence thrown into the pan gets double weight. If we could have gotten bonuses last night, I think our 4-toon CJ would have gone way smoother. :D
