No luck for me on this one, about 25 tries in so far (but I'm recording the failures for this, so it makes it more interesting )

Hopefully I get multiple Astros along the way to add to my collection.

Pretty sure it's 3 geo bots, I think the point being that they got 3 geo bots in a row!

You're right....I like those Geo pods, but think they look like they should be Thermal.

Yup, thermal bot.

I need a GEO before I can breed a Thermal. Please, Please - Can anyone give me a good combo?

Thanks!

For Geo, use Science and Mining.

Thanks so much, and thanks very much for everyone else who sped me!

I should have entered this comp - over 40 tries so far and nothing, not even an Astro

My park has been masterbot-less for quite some time now.

I am so very happy to say, that this week ( in one day!) I successfully bred a Thermal, then a Steam! This is not bragging, really, just relief coming from one who will probably NEVER get an Astrobot! I thought that I was just being " left behind"... I really do think that I have better luck on my iPhone than my iPad though.

48 hr going speed ups would be great
Thanks

[smeghead]

Got it I'm out

[pjsteel]

2 Thermal bot gizmos from the Battle Arena, but still no Thermal... No astros from the combo either.

Oh well, recording the failures makes it more interesting

Nothing for me yet, either. Have even sped along a few shorter fails.

Come one, Thermal - I'm hot for you!

I like that you are at least getting Gizmos!

Hey Pixie! I think I bred a Thermal. I got 14 hours with Geo and Mining. Is it a Thermal?

I would like to thank GCID unknown for the Geo combo. Was able to breed a Geo on second try and now I think I bred a Thermal with my new Geo.

Sorry Jacqueline, but 14 hours is another geo. thermal is 48 hours.

That would be great! Bad news is your are about 34 hours short. Keep trying! I'm having no luck, either, but getting lots of geos.

I'm speeding up quite a few (after all, there isn't much else to use your crystals on in Gizmonauts!).

Basically, this is what I do:

- 1 hour timer - speed up immediately
- 3 or 4 hour timers - speed up once they get below 1 hour (or even 2 hours, if I won't be checking in the next couple of hours)
- 8 hour timer - speed up once it gets below 1 hour, or once it gets below 2 hours if I haven't received any speedups
- 14 hour timer - usually speed up once it gets below 1-2 hours

This way, there is always something for friends to speed up, and it doesn't waste any speedups.

Nothing worse than having 1 hour left on a timer, and coming back in an hour and seeing that 3-4 people have sped it up in that time haha.

I always try to get either an 8 or 14 hour before bed as well, although if my baby bot station is full, I usually settle for a 3 or 4. Seems like such a waste to speed up hatching.
