    Just wondering....... what happens if you have saved up your regular air overnight to say 180% and then someone gives you all 5 buddy boosts, which is another 100% - does it go over 200%???? or would it technically be 80% wasted????
    It does get wasted, so best to boost those that are flying at the time. Also I think it is possible to blunder through a canister (and get boosted) while asleep at the controls :p

    You'd probably be better using it - at least till 100% or so, as you max out at 200% and it doesn't seem to block the boosts if you're over this already?!

    ok, so use it all up before you go to bed and then when you wake up you will have accumulated a bit as you travel (seems to be working now) and then you can have the extra boosts aswell from buddy's. That makes sense.

    Just wondering if it is best left to ask for buddy boosts when you need them, as you collect it up as you go along anyway and then that could be a last resort if you havn't seen any normal canisters for ages and ages??? :o sorry I know the lists are taking you guys ages and ages!!! but I don't know how we'll know who has been boosted or not already on the list unless they ask??? :o

    That's along the lines I was thinking, if you accumulate it as you go along (little bit at a time and be lucky to go through a canister) and seen as it doesn't block your buddy boosts then people could be boosting you but wasting them if you already have a high % ??


    Aagh I'm rubbish at explaining things!! :o

    Just wondering if it is best left to ask for buddy boosts when you need them- Yes I think that could be a good tactic. What do you mean taking this too seriously :rotfl:

    :D:D:D :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

    I'm thinking of it for both sides really - the people scanning through to see who needs a boost could be wasting their own time as no one will know who has already been checked or not and it is a bit of a time consuming thing - even though it is a really nice thing to do!!!

    and also if it does mean people wasting %'s (see previous posts) then that's a bit annoying.

    Please don't everyone get cross with me as I know you have put a lot of effort into it, it's just I've had a chance to think about it better now!! :o

    There is always someone around on the thread to ask if you need your boosts using I think?
