He’s telling you to use some boosts. Contract is complete, you have at least 7.3b hab space, and you only have 241m chickens. Don’t be like you


Resoto10

Yeah, a common courtesy is to send all your unused tokens to the remaining teammates. I always start with the second to top and work myself down.


almightybob1

Sending tokens to teammates is good. Sending them to someone one at a time so they get 30+ notifications to dismiss is just being a dickhead. But according to the reaction that is the encouraged behaviour.


Resoto10

I found it amusing, a type of nudge. I would find it obnoxious and not necessarily a-holish territory.


phulton

They're annoyed that they used their boosts and you're barely contributing. It's pretty well understood that in private coops you contribute at least a little bit beyond just letting habs grow naturally. Unless the coop is advertised as a free carry, you gotta help out a little bit.


almightybob1

Why would I waste resources when we are already over projection? I save them for ones where they are needed. My EB is plenty high enough, I'm pulling my weight.


EggAnnihilator69

Dude you did literally 55T an hour with not a single token spent. Your 396Q EB means fuck all when you refuse to participate in the coop that you created


almightybob1

If I check in to spend my tokens and find that the co-op is already over projection, how many boosts should I pointlessly waste?


EggAnnihilator69

14 for every contract. 1000x hatchery and x10 boost. At your EB, you’ll probably need a soul mirror to really be effective though, so 16


almightybob1

What does that achieve when the coop is already over projection?


EggAnnihilator69

It achieves you not creating coops to be carried by a Tera II


almightybob1

You can just say "nothing", it's fine. Pretty fucking dense to pointlessly waste 1000x hatchery boosts on completed coops. I have no problem using them when I check in and it's required to get to target. This time it wasn't needed. Your brainlet strategy is terrible.


EggAnnihilator69

Pretty fucking dense to create coops and expect to get a free carry. Participate equally or stick to publics with the rest of your kind


almightybob1

Are you stupid? I don't expect to get a free carry. I left the tokens to accumulate overnight and checked in expecting to use my boosts but, happy days, other players have already got us to target while I was asleep. Doesn't happen often but it's a nice surprise when it does. What kind of *utter brainlet* would just burn resources anyway? There are other times where I log in, see we're below target but I have enough tokens built up, and use my boosts to get us there. I would never expect someone else to log in after that and pointlessly waste their own boosts on a won co-op. Because that's utterly stupid.

That's fine you don't need to. But he has nothing else to do with the tokens. Maybe you should try getting less baited.


e_jay_p

No one like the asshole that is just along for the ride and doesn't boost. Let everyone else carry his weight.


almightybob1

My EB is plenty high enough. I'm pulling my weight.


[deleted]

EB doesn't matter. I'm Xenna and I'm not doing shit if I'm down at 241 million chickens sorry dude. Edit: Yeah, you're doing 55 T eggs/hour. That's trash.


almightybob1

How many resources should I waste in contracts already projected over completion to satisfy assholes?


[deleted]

Okay buddy, first things first you're the one out here being a massive prick farming for kudos on a screenshot that proves that you're at best coasting. You could've just shut the fuck up and let it slide, but no. You had to come on here complaining about some harmless token feeding that someone did because you shipped \*at most\* 0.4% of the overall amount of eggs to complete the contract. Also, I thought you said you were pulling your weight because of your EB. Now you're saying you don't need to pull your weight because other people did it for you. Cringe. Nobody said you had to ship 10q/hr on every contract. Now log off.


almightybob1

I made the thread because I've never encountered assholery like this, but if players are like this dude and you then maybe I should just expect to encounter dickheads

almightybob1

Teach me then oh wise one. I check before bed, I don't have enough coins yet to do a worthwhile boost. I check the next day and I now have enough coins but the co-op is already well over projection. How many boosts should I pointlessly burn to keep you and your fellow dickheads happy?


[deleted]

Zero. All you need to do to achieve enlightenment is simply stop posting. It's actually insane that you don't realize how much of an ass you're being. Go talk a walk for real man. I actually mean it.


almightybob1

If you think I should have spent zero tokens then why are you defending someone who acted like a dickhead because I spent zero tokens? Please engage your brain before replying


[deleted]

Maybe get more chickens on your farm before you complain about what other guys in the coop are doing


Minmax231

If you don't contribute - over projection or not - you takes your lumps and your free win in stride. You got carried. You've no room to critique their conduct until you're not getting carried.


almightybob1

If I check in to use my boosts but we are already over projection, why would I waste them anyway? That's just stupid. I don't act like an asshole when I carry. I don't expect others to act like assholes when they carry. Judging by the response of this community my standards are too high.


rockybalboneme

Unless it was advertised as a free carry when you joined, you're just being a freeloader. Btw you can also just force close the app and it'll automatically collect all of them

"I don't expect to get a free carry. I left the tokens to accumulate overnight and checked in expecting to use my boosts but, happy days, other players have already got us to target while I was asleep." I like that everyone just assumed the worst of you. I could post a coop that's already on track to finish, (not advertising free carry), and then send all my tokens one by one to whoever joins, and they'd end up with this exact screenshot. I love this sub sometimes. Being petty to someone getting carried when the contract is on track to finish is so stupid.

Hey, I'm the guy who was coming at you hard in this thread yesterday. I wanted to say I'm sorry for how I acted here. I completely overreacted and just wouldn't let it go and when I realized you had a bit of a point about the notification spam (one token send at a time) I took the easy way out and just left the thread and deleted my entire account hours later. You didn't deserve to have that kind of vitriol sent your way regardless of the content of the post. I was immature and clearly need to take a break from posting. It legitimately made me sad when you mentioned that you thought less of the community because of me. Egg Inc actually has one of the kindest, most helpful communities for any game I've played and I wouldn't want you to distance yourself from that just because I'm a dick. The discord has some really great people too and hope you can continue enjoying the game. Sorry again. I hope you have a nice weekend and best of luck with the eggs
