To the above: That's a pretty bad idea. Top 100 players will buy enough deck power to make top 100 with or without you. Generally they can do more in a 2 or 3 cube than you and 20 other randoms hitting can do, so they're really only sharing their level 8 bosses with you to be nice and to grab some medals from the co-op bonus. Trust me, I made top 100 (or top 200) in the jazz event, and i spent less than most top players, with a little help from the space bridge, and enough cubes stocked up to run train on everything. If I would have doubled my money into the space bridge, like most top spenders do, my DP would have allowed me to seriously destroy EVERYTHING I came across. I could have easily just 3 cubed every level 8 and let the randoms help me out before i finished it. It would have cost me a lot more cubes, but the top 100 players already invest enough money that buying more cubes is straight up overhead. you can't stop big spending unless the big spenders themselves get tired of it. Also, without spending, you won't be able to get INTO the top 100 to keep the big boys out - they get there early and stake out their spot. They don't give that spot up.
