Wanna quit with your borderline spam or do I have to choke you?

Also, has anyone noticed it's harder to score goals with the new version? I know it's only a practice team but I can barely get the Yooyu in the goal. blink.gif

Yes, it is a little harder.

I think with some practice, and if you remember where you shot at from last time, you should be good. I just kept shooting from where I did last year, and made some. I just gotta get used to it again.

Yeah, but I think it was sheer dumb luck, only managed it with the Mutant ball, and we all know how THAT one is. <_>

I'll go play later and make some screenies of good places to shoot from. I still think it's easy... I just don't care too much about the new graphic design.

Normally lasts around a month. Usually.

It's kinda like a plot. You get points depending on how many wins you have, how many goals, loses, draws, and how many games of SS and MSN you play.

There is an avatar and some good prizes.

Last year the top prize was a PB.

SS and MSN? What difference does it make what team you choose then?

Sounds interesting....I'm looking forward to getting started.

More like an old fashioned war without the headache inducing puzzles. except instead of fighting you play games. You submit your wins, play as much as possible while people on other teams do the same.

Tournament Structure
The Altador Cup tournament pits 16 teams, representing the lands of Neopia, against each other. Tournament play is "double round robin," which means that each team will play each of the other fifteen competing teams twice.

Each day, your team faces a new opponent, and it is up to you to contribute as much as you can by playing not only Yooyuball, but also Slushie Slinger and Make Some Noise. Your results in each daily match-up, evaluated separately for each of the three games, contribute to your team's overall standing in the tournament. Please remember to help your team win all 3 daily match-ups.

At the conclusion of the double round robin phase, all 16 teams will move on to take part in the four-day finals phase, which will consist of a playoff match-up and a final match-up. Each finals phase match-up lasts for two days. Within each four-team rank grouping (1-4, 5-8, 9-12, 13-16), the highest and lowest ranked teams will play against each other, while the second and third ranked teams will also pair off, with the winners of each match-up then facing off for first place of that group, and the losers facing off for third place of that group.

The four leading teams overall will still be in contention for a place on the Altador Cup winners' pedestal, but now, a fourth place team could sneak to the top on two wins, and emerge victorious!

New match-ups begin promptly at 12:00:01 am NST every day, and you can always see who your team will be facing on future days by making a visit to the Match Schedule page.

During the tournament, if you're wondering how your team is doing, have a look at the Standings page for all the latest information.

Which Neopian team will win the Cup? It's all up to you! Go and play some games!
