The owner of the PI I'm in recently offered me an extension -- I don't remember how the TORN website notified me of this, but I do remember getting it. Given the fact that there was still 20 days on my active lease and I didn't have the liquid cash at the time I thought "yeah, I'll do this in a bit."

Now the owner has IM'ed me letting me know if I wanted to pursue it, which I do. That said, I don't know where to go in TORN to find the offer and accept it at this point. The propertys page doesn't seem to have an option and the normal "rental" section of the newspaper doesn't seem to either (or I'm really missing it).

Anyone have any idea on where I should be clicking around to see if this is still out there and to accept/pay for it?

TIA.... Rodie.

For DEF -- training in either Georges or Balboas -- I no longer seem to gain a little bit with each train. Seems to have just flattened out and I'm getting about the same increase per train at this point. Similar for DEX.

For STR and SPD, they are still increasing as I go. But I will lose Balboas if I don't keep the right ratio so I have to keep pushing DEF to keep the specialty gyms unlocked.

I guess I feel like I'm wasting E somehow with this at present. Any info or advice appreciated.

Thanks,
Rodie

Opinion from a friendly via IM is that perhaps when you hit 50M in a stat things slow down more significantly and that overall there is still gain per train over time. But being offset by happy during a single "session". I'll pay more attention moving forward to ensure I'm getting an overall gain over multiple sessions (letting happy balance out)...

Thanks Nika for the responses. Appreciate that.

It's like every DEF is either flat or down slightly, and every SPD is up by about 10 each time. I'm clueless!

No books. Scared to use 'em so they sit in inventory!!!

Good lord the formatting is awful.

OK starting from here (only 20 E before refill, but did refill):

Energy:

Nerve:
5/68
03:09
Happy:

13:09
Life:
2175/2175
FULL

... and am alternating trains DEF and SPD:

.. and the log (I finished this with 4,597 happy -- from starting at 4,999

.... sorry for the bad formatting with the cut/paste, but:


For DEF first train was for 26,268 and last train was 26,259.
For SPD first train was for 24,734 and last train was 24,814

Any thoughts appreciated. This is burning happy (by alternating trains between DEF and SPD) at least linearly.

Noted Nika -- but what I'm hoping to understand is why one is exponentially gaining per train and the other is not. Not sure how to be test for this, but I'll post my log and see if y'all can make any sense of it. If you know of a better way to test/log let me know.

I don't have any E until I can grab a refill here in 8 minutes so I'll pay more attention.

To answer the question -- yes I typically train all the E I have at any given time with what seems to me to be a small amount of "happy expense" for that series of trains. I don't train one time, then wait for happy refill, then training again. Just too cumbersome for me to be on Torn that much.

I'm going to do an E refill with points and will post my train log. I'll stick with one gym (Georges) and alternate between DEF (which doesn't seem to increase) and something like Speed (which does seem to do so).

I'm typically training beginning at 5,000 happy with a PI. Don't typically use happy boosters at this point. Also have some job perks that reduce Happy loss impact (I will typically finish over 4,950 or so after full training -- even with a Xanax). Just maxed out growing per train it appears. I'm clueless!

For DEF -- training in either Georges or Balboas -- I no longer seem to gain a little bit with each train. Seems to have just flattened out and I'm getting about the same increase per train at this point. Similar for DEX.

For STR and SPD, they are still increasing as I go. But I will lose Balboas if I don't keep the right ratio so I have to keep pushing DEF to keep the specialty gyms unlocked.

Another great trade with Midnight. Bump

I asked for too little on a sale, and Midnight Trader offered more than I asked. Good to do business with..!

I've been divorced twice and am single because I don't want to get a reputation. Story the same so far:

• I rent a 5K happy PI with "the things" and keep it current.
• Ask for the spouse to pay upkeep only to split the cost up a bit.

Spouse goes inactive, upkeep piles up and I have to divorce.

Don't care anymore. Perhaps "the deal" (PI and you pay upkeep) isn't a good one....!

I had a second look and still don't see anything there either....... and then FOUND IT.

I had to go back to my notifications, which is where it popped up, and then accept it from there. FYI for any others looking for this. THanks
