You just have to win 50 games of YB or 100 games of SS or a mixture of all 4 games.
You have to attain rank 1 is all. I don't believe it gets taken away if you win over 50 games...

It should be like last year, and all you need to do is get to rank 1. 50 games won't take too long to win

[Frank274]

I wish I enjoyed playing... it's so monotonous.

I have 61 wins. I already cant stand it xD

Slushie Slinger is the mot horrendous game I have ever played.

Shootout Showdown is super easy and takes about 10 Seconds to play (Worth 1/12 of a YYB game)

Make Some Noise is easily bottable, so you can crank out points about twice a minute (Also worth 1/12 of a YYB game)

At least they added some variety since the first AC that only had YYB and SS -_-

I'm sitting here trying to crank out some Slushie Slinger games, and it takes me about 5 minutes to crank out a 650-700 point score. So my desire to play about 10 games a day takes almost an hour.

This is some crap... but I'm maintaining some level of excitement because KI is tied for the lead

Just got 50 points so have the avatar I'm considering retiring

Which team are you on that you're going to retire? Because that will drag down the team average...

Overall scores / Number of Members = Daily Score

If people leech/retire, it can ruin a team's day...

AND if you're on Krawk Island, I'm going to have to double my quotas....

Hey jc I totally forgot you're on KI!
I shoot for 100 goals a day. It's not not to hard just 10 or few more rounds. But on the NeoBoards people are getting like 14-15 goals every game!!

Im like 8-11..

I call HAX!

It takes me about 15 seconds (including the ball launch) to score a goal... making my max score about 12?

[Noitidart]

Well if I don't jack up I can make a shot in 4-5 seconds. But then all the congrats and intro to ball screen takes another 8-10 seconds. Yeah man I dont get it

[Noitidart]

I'm pretty good with Darigan. It's just the mutant really messes with you when it pulls a faerie. I have a shot where it'll go in if its fire, ice, or darigan. But man that faerie thing really messes with you

[jcrdude]

I'm LD, but I just care that little about it I might play to get more points to claim more prizes though.

You don't HAVE to play today *looks at Krawk Island standings*

I'm fine with the Darigan ball, figured out how to work that one well, and the Mutant one USUALLY shoots straight, so that one's fine too. It's that damned faerie ball that goes flying all over the place... I just can't handle that shit.

[Frank274]

I started noticing that the darigan ball goes in a predictable way when I do the same angle, so I figured there's a pattern to it, but haven't bothered to work it out.

Faerie is reasonably easy for me, it curls in a predictable way too.

Darigan goes OPPOSITE the angle you are facing. Hopefully that'll help you

And, after scoring a goal, and it goes to the screen where it shows the goal, hit the space bar twice. The next ball will be in the field (saves you about 7 seconds, but still takes the full 10 off the clock)

Yeah man Faerie is my worse but if I'm right in front of the goalie and put the mouse up just a bit it curls to right behind him lol so its pretty easy. I love this shot. Only shot I try to pull with a faerie otherwise it goes all over the place. It changes speed down the path too.

Yeah I like Darigan. Exactly opposite angle. If you shoot straight though it'll go straight. But I like the opposite angle thing totally trips up the goalie AI lol

I LOVE fire I can make a goal from across the screen haha

I'm pretty good with every ball, except mutant, since it's always changing. I get it like its a normal or fire and hope for the best It usually works. I think I'm done playing. I've gotten back into my book and would rather read then play

I'm going to try that exact approach on my last run of games for the next 15 minutes or so. *Hopes for the best*

WE BEAT KI IN YYB! (worth more than the minigames win, anyway)

SUCK IT NOIT! Lost Desert is amazing!!


Oh, and by the way, we ended KIs perfect YYB streak

And if you mean lossless, then you are correct, sir... We still have a little over 20 days to go. Well played.

Sure. lol KI hadn't lost yet, and we knocked them down. That's enough to be proud about.

You did what the lauded Kreludor was incapable of, and you do deserve commendation for that.

[Frank274]

However, with us beating you, it launched DC into the lead. Now we gotta take them down too

[jcrdude]

The biggest thing that makes me feel good right now?

Faerieland: YYB: 0/1/9 SS: 0/0/10 MSN: 0/0/10 SOSD: 0/0/10

Damn Kreludor needs to lose their lossless status as well if we want to make it back into the Top 4

Unless LD, DC, or Shenkuu feels like taking a dive to propel us back into finals position?

Matchup of the day? Kreludor vs. Shenkuu Can't wait to see how that one shakes out. Either way, it's a plus for Krawk Island.

If Kreludor Loses, we move into 4th
If Kreludor Draws, we move into 3rd
If Kreludor Wins, we move into 4th

pfft. No way. You guys can deal with it

[Frank274]

LD beat KI, holy shit. Pity we didn't win the other supporter games as well though.

Totally coz I played 11 games that day. Made the difference I'm sure XD.

Seriously though... HAH

It gave me the boost I needed to play again. I entered the morning at 61 wins, and before I went to bed, I was at 125. I did pretty good this morning

[Noitidart]

What the heck!!!!!!

[jcrdude]

According to a certain site that caters to daily neopets coverage (hint hint), the rankings in weighted scores are posted below.



They are going on the common assumption that 1 YYB Win = 3 Side Game Wins and decided to weight them all approximately evenly (SS .3; MSN .4; SOSD .3). If you weigh them dead even (SS 1/3; MSN 1/3; SOSD 1/3), though, the scores are a little different but the top 4 spots remain intact.

Now I'm more inclined to assume that the actual weights are SS 1/2; MSN 1/12; SOSD 1/12 (Based on the rank-up ratios). If I'm correct, then MY ranking looks more like this:

As long as LD is within the top 4, I'm happy
