At present? Nothing. In the future? No clue, but I'll have some available.Originally Posted by Unregistered?
I find the question a little odd, considering that skips only became useable in the tournament recently. I have them because I didn't use them to no purpose before they entered the tournament, and I continue holding onto most of them for the same reason.
Based on my levels an hour into the tournament I had doubts about making 14K, so I used a skip to gain a little confidence. I'm certain that dropping ten more would NOT have gotten me near 15K. I would have had to skip my way through at least one more upgrade after that, if not two or three. Trying to skip my way to a 15K finish probably would have used all of my 5day items, might have failed, and I'd have none of them left to influence things next week when my multiplier gain will push me higher and could make using more than 1 skip a good decision.
I don't mind spending, but I see no reason to waste and at least one to save. You never know when an item that was only useful for one purpose might suddenly be used better in a different way.
Take, for instance, recent conversation I've had with Sharon in this thread. I used to think that gems were only useful to buy multiplier upgrades, with an exception for stock doubling in select circumstances, and I still think I used to be right in that opinion. Since the addition of Gains Week, that old thinking is no longer completely true. Buying tickets for that event can yield more benefit than purchasing multiplier upgrades directly.
I'm not in a position to predict what purpose skips might have in the future, but it's not difficult to imagine them being used in an event.
