Farming vs bonuts
Haven't run the numbers but I feel like for most people it's probably more donut advantageous to put your disk generating people on regular cash tasks and then buy Keys vs all the work to accumulate 5000 disks for 1-3dnuts ( since you can build some KeMs in 4 hrs and get the same result....
Anyone want to run the numbers? (obviously your mileage may vary depending on your bonus %age)

I determined that if your bonus percentage is <295%, you should go for the event bonuts...otherwise, you should go for the KEM farm donuts.
This is based on having all the event premium/regular characters. I am counting 6 that pay out 80, 6 that pay out 60 and 8 that pay out 40 (total of 20 characters). Of those, 17 are either premium or have a premium skin (Cletus, Bont and Wayne Slater have no premium option).
This doesn't take into account the situation room or scanner...it only calculates the incremental boxes obtained by having these characters on either type of task.
Ah, yes, I should have mentioned that my numbers were for players at 939...I also didn't factor in the cost of additional boxes, but that is definitely important to consider
Taking that assumption - you get a bonuts box every 4.16 cycles (one cycle being 4 hours).
Sending the same 20 characters on a 4 hour task yields $4945 per four hour cycle (not factoring in a Multiplier). That can get you 11 KEMs (with resale $ reinvested).
For me, at 395% Multiplier (and 153% hidden SH bonus) and XP collider on, it takes about 13-14 KEMs to get Bonuts. That plus the fact that it's cheaper to buy extra boxes by leveling up means that sending characters on tasks and KEM farming will earn more donuts in the long run.
That being said - my characters are all working on intel round the clock.
Incorrectly a lot of the time.
i'm curious... how is it supposed to be used?
To me bonuts are the extra donuts you earn after you've won the prizes in an event.
I know that it would be more cost effective to just use the money for farming rather than bonut boxes, but I don't really care about the money in that way even if I'm low on cash. Event bonuts are special
this was definitely the original intention of the word, but i think it's safe to say it has evolved since then...
To cover -all- the extra goodies!
haha can't say that has much of a ring to it.....
if you want it to have a farm connotation, i'd go with grownuts...
kemnuts?
Thats exactly what I meant. Sorry I didn't elaborate, I figured it was self explanatory. It gets used in place of donuts now when all they are talking about are....donuts.
