    26 + Weeklies isn't enough :,(

    why not up your points a bit and see how you go? I am on 29pp as thats a good amount for me and 26pp is the minimum you should have so I think 3 pp wasnt to much over lol. Or split your weeklies by 7 and add to your daily points? Then you get an extra 7pps a day.
