@DejaBrew got excellent value @FlyingKangaroo
Got to meet some lovely folk Flounging 😉

That salt and pepper squid remains ever elusive to me (missed last week's offer for a pass in the thread by about 2 minutes because I was... cleaning the cat's litter box), so indeed I must not know what I'm missing. 😉

He's sitting next to me now and he may be unaware of it but I am absolutely still holding a grudge.
 
Genuinely curious if you don't mind me asking--- if you're self-funding this, do you actually feel you get more value than you put in? Even when you're nearing ~5c/SC as I know this run can do, it's a lot of money.

Is the aim lifetime status?
Fair question, and no problems at all. :)

This particular run was focused purely at earn towards LT status (trying to fast track and hit LTG before any "enhancements" to the current setup) and is way more than what I'd normally do. In terms of cost, this one worked out to be somewhere around $2.8/SC so it was certainly on the cheaper end of these sorts of runs. I had already retained WP prior to commencing this run, and the "byproduct" of these extra SC was that I ticked over to P1 (which was not the goal, but I'll take it all the same).

I feel I'm getting more bang for buck out of the program than I used to, but that's purely a result of better understanding how to exploit the benefits and play the game. Is it true value for money? Debatable. But it certainly has come in handy for my travels over the last few years.
