Doctor Dimm Reports In!

"Doctor Dimm!"
That's my name! I still wonder why I hear people yelling it all the time. Maybe I've got a devoted following of admirers. I really can't think of any other reason why. If you somehow haven't met me, I'm one of the Scientoons at Loony Labs. The best, battiest Scientoon in town, if you ask me! Be sure to swing by Toon Hall to say hello whenever you can. I get awfully bored hearing Purrview ramble on.
Don't let me get carried away though, I'm already tired enough from carrying all these zeroes! Between the Toon Resistance and the Toon Troop, Loony Labs has been stretched thin all across town. Luckily, we've pulled through and come up with multiple scientific breakthroughs!
Organic Gags
If there's one thing more annoying than yelling "Doctor Dimm!", it's having to yell "ORG!" at your friends. Whether you've got a 'Terrific Throw' or a 'Ludicrous Lure', quickly yelling at your friends about your organic gags is always important. The Resistance came in and rambled on about some Cog threat shenanigans and how we need to battle smarter. The point is though, they wanted none other than ME to help upgrade Toon T.A.G.S.!
I took a bit of spray paint, rigged up a pulley, smacked it with a few hammers -- and presto! You can now see what Gags are organic in Toon T.A.G.S! But that's not all -- I worked with the folks over at Goofy's Gag Shop to upgrade your Gag Pouches as well. When you select an Organic Gag in battle, it'll sparkle bright! The old pastime of shouting "ORG!" should be no more.
Picnic Games
But that's not all. Professor Purrview has been called upon by the Toon Troop to inspect Picnic Games at Chip 'n Dale's Acorn Acres. It's been a long while since Fisherman Nutty last spruced them up, and they've been in a state of disrepair for quite a while. Professor Purrview has a knack for being... "purrticular" about things. With her stellar skills, Picnic Games have been fully revamped! Try them out when you're in the mood for some friendly competition. I sure am, and let me tell you -- my greatest enemy is terrible at checkers! Curse you, Banana Peel...
Major Bug Fixes
Last but certainly not least, Professor Prepostera has been called to investigate... the grey. With the protection of the Toon Resistance, Prepostera went in and sealed up all the cracks. In other words, logic-breaking bugs in the D.A. Office and Cog Golf Courses have been fixed! Plus, on his way there, Prepostera ran into some interesting "crashes", sending him right back to the playground. Huge gaps, right in the tunnels we travel through every day. Who would've thunk. I've heard many Toons complaining about these to the Toon Council, so I'm happy to see all of them fixed. Maybe now I can finally hear myself think...
"Doctor Dimm!"
Do you hear something? Must've been the wind...

Thanks guys!
Toontastic! No more shouting ORG and having to explain the abbreviation to that one Toon who doesn't have a garden lol. Also, I guess it's time to challenge someone to a game of checkers! Any takers?
Won't solve the "org" problem but yea it really helps toons check for organic gags. Really nice touch!
YAY! BUG FIXES!
Not bad! Now I don't have to keep telling people I have organic throw anymore!
Wow, thanks for always taking care of bugs! You guys rock :)
I can't thank yall enough for these features!
Awesome!! Thank again!
very nice >:]
I just played the Checkers game on the picnic table and I ran into a problem for me. I like to play strategically and the game forces you to jump your opponent's checker given the chance. It doesn't matter if it puts you into a losing situation (which happened) you *HAVE* to jump. This seems a little petty to mention seeing as how that could be directed towards the younger players, but it got me frustrated at the picnic games. Other than that I love this update! Keep up the good work!
Nice >:]
Wait... No more loading issues in Cog Golf Courses? THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU! This issue used to happen to me EVERY TIME I WENT IN! I'm excited to finally be able to do them without feeling bad for the group or having to constantly apologize! You guys rock!
Wow i like the update!
These are great improvements that I'm sure will make our town run much smoother!
Nice.
