Something Stupid?

[IrrationalityPie]

I may have done something stupid.
So, the update came out, and the bonus loot was nice. I started saving up.
I was a halfway decent TH7, when I decided to upgrade to 8. This was partly fueled by a sense of competitiveness with some annoying person I barely know at lunch deciding that their base was better, and partially because someone else that I actually knew was trying to just rush through all the townhall levels, and that sounded fun.

Anyways, we lost our first clan war, but my loot bonus was enough to push me over the 2mil for TH8. Lured in by the promise of new walls, I pressed "upgrade".

Going along my merry way, upgrading my townhall, when all of a sudden I have 1.5 mil gold for no reason. On a whim, and still feeling a sense of competition, I decided to see if I could farm enough gold to upgrade again. I hit a massive spot of good raiding (and now I am much better with Barch!) and by the time the upgrade finished, I had close to 4 million.

Naturally, I clicked "upgrade" again.

By the time it finishes, my new walls and archer tower will be at a half-decent level. But the question is-

Was this a really stupid idea?

Not stupid, just misinformed.

Cancel the TH upgrade and enjoy each level.

OK, it was a bit stupid!

You're going to have a hard time raiding since you basically skipped TH8 and any troop upgrades to speak of. That level 5 troop upgrade is very essential and you are going to be a TH9 with level 4 troops. Good luck raiding other TH9 and TH8 (that have actually upgraded their stuff) with level 4 troopss :/

Cancel the upgrade. I upgraded slightly prematurely but it wasn't bad. What saved me were the lvl 5 troops and the lvl 6 mortars.

Im afraid it was very stupid, you should max everything before upgrading your th.

Going to TH8 wasn't really a bad move. Going to TH9 was, big time! Cancel the upgrade if you still can. Really, you're throwing a lot of fun out of the window if you don't.
