Round 2 sign-ups are underway . .. I'm still trying to decide who to go with!

I see what people mean about the second round being faster and a little tougher. Still manageable, though. I do miss my lovely ball-control Altadorians. With them, I ruled with the snow ball. Now using Brightvale, the style of play is different, and the fire ball is much easier than it was before, and the snow ball seems sluggish. Not too bad to get the hang of it, though. The Jelly team scored the first two goals in my first game, but I scored the next six.

WE WON!!!!

I just came back, I was on the road all day and I can't tell you how hard it was not to be certain if I was to continue or have to change team!!!! But now, one down, three to go!!!!!!

I'm with the Lost Desert now, but i'll keep the Kreludor av since I seem to be the only one who has been supporting them.

Haunted Woods, you're going down!

I really like playing as Roo Island. Just for the record.

It makes me so mad that it switched my team in the middle of play. I'm sure it'll cost me big in the end if mystery island wins it all. I was on that team but got switched to tyrannia, and the quiggle at the sign ups says "sorry to hear ur team lost'' or something like that and i wanted to kick him in the knee. errr.

Meh, I was going to go with Krawk Island originally but since I was debating between that and Kreludor when we all got 'stuck' on a team, I let that decide for me. I didn't bother too much because I did enjoy the fact that there were more girls + a Lutari on Kreludor. My Pirate Krawk can stop giving me dirty looks now that I joined KI, at least.

I found the game play pretty intense and am not sure about the entire progression of this sort of thing. My interest is already fading. I just wish there was more going on besides people supporting and dissing teams. At least maybe we could play on a grass field in the next round, or something to break the monotony, lol. The play doesn't seem any different to me yet.

I'm assuming that those will be the match-ups for the next round. I'm just guessing but
that is usually how sports brackets work. Might help with team choosing for round 2.
Don't blame me if I'm wrong though

perhaps someone might want to put this link in the first post? maybe??

Some people are starting to say it's rigged because all the losing teams were on the left: http://petpages.neopets.com/~Cytoplazm

I hope not.. i really dont want to go up against Mystery Island yet, simply because of it's great popularity... I think Mystery island is winning due to more popularity, and team Citadel actually has many good players who are dedicated to winning.... thats my guess... if you think about it, it could be pretty accurate. And it's a shame to put one up against the other so one is automatically limited... I would think darigan would have a good chance of beating roo island, brightvale, the desert, and the woods... i think meridell, krawk island, and MI would have a chance, if not more, against us.... the line up I would like to see is:

Meridell vs. Brightvale (for obvious reasons)
Darigan vs. Krawk Island (kind of like bad guys vs more bad guys)
Mystery Island vs. The Lost Desert... another match of popularity vs. dedication
Roo Island vs. Haunted Woods, two teams that are probably pretty equal in terms to who is on each team.

So according to Messs' prediction... We're crushing Haunted Woods next, but according the Great Weezel we're crushing Mystery Island next. I don't care either way. Nothing is stopping Azar-sensei.

I just joined the Haunted Woods team, mostly because I recognized a few displaced Kreludor players switching over to them on the boards. Only two other teams appeal to me anymore anyway. I also decided to make sure HW was the best choice by writing my three favorites on scraps of paper and choosing at random. Turns out it was.

Haunted Woods, you are now blessed with my Yooyuball skills, yaay!

(I dont suck, I promise. )

Well, if it IS all about popularity.... the the Citadel will be winning this tournament *woot!*

If you've been following the poll I made in reguards to what team you are rooting for, which can be seen here: http://www.pinkpt.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=26816 , you can now see the results... but I might as well post them here as well.. perhaps it will give some conclusion as to why some teams won or lost, or what the future may hold, or may help you decide what team to join!

Here were the results of my poll, which I closed as soon as the results for Round 1 were posted:

The Darigan Citadel:......................16 Votes (12.6%)
Mystery island: .............................12 Votes (9.4%)
Faerieland:....................................11 Votes (8.7%)
Altador: .......................................10 Votes (7.9%)
Terror Mountain:............................ 9 Votes (7.1%)

Kreludor: ......................................4 Votes (3.1%)
Kiko Lake: ....................................3 Votes (2.4%)

Total Votes: 127

and for your enjoyment, here are some lovely graphs to help display the data!




Here's how they compare to the results of round one:

Altador Lost to Krawk Island... but perhaps because it WAS so popular toward the end because its the new world, and its called the ALTADOR cup.... perhaps newbies all voted for/joined the altador cup team, so yes, they had lots of people, but didnt have the dedication which the krawk island team had, because players who joined the krawk island team probably joined it for a reason.

Kiko lake lost to brightvale, which were appropriately placed against eachother since neither of them had many supporters to begin with... and kiko lake, who placed 16th in this poll (last) did lose and had the 2nd to last ammount of points this round!

Darigan beat terror mountain, and I since darigan is more of a mini-world, and not even a whole world that is promoted or anything... it must have people who really like it to join it. Supporters who joined darigan joined it because they want to play for that team and win.. Terror mountain also ranked high in this poll, and also was probably mostly populated by people who joined it because they were dedicated to that place, and a few perhaps because of the relatively recent plot there. Because of this reason, and because Darigan had more supporters to begin with, darigan beat out terror mountain.

The Haunted Woods beat Kreludor. This proves my personal theory incorrect, because I thought more people would help kreludor, the new world which is also a planet by itself, but more people actually picked to join the haunted woods, and kreludor was 2nd to last in this poll. And as the poll predicted, kreludor DID lose to the haunted woods.

The lost desert beat Virtupets...... this.. is wierd in many ways. I thought people would join the lost desert because of the fairly recent plot, but then again, virtupets is the robot space station run by sloth... in the end, its surprising to see that the team who placed 13th in the poll beat the team who had 6th place! hm!

Meridell beat maraqua, but this is an interesting match-up to begin with, as they both very popular at the moment, a) because meridell is extremely overrated, and despite not being a "new world" anymore, its continued to be used as if it were a newly released world! In the mean time, Maraqua has become famous because its been around longest, but was unusable for many years, and has had this awesome new plot. There has been much hype for Maraqua. They were also placed RIGHT NEXT to eachother in the poll, dead center, taking 8th and 9th. So, this was a hard call. Meridell did end up beating maraqua in the poll AND in the altador cup first round.

Lastly, Roo Island beat out Tyrannia, which I did find find to be a surprise at all. Tyrannia wasn't ever bound to get many supporters, and they didnt... they placed 14th in this poll. While on the top half, roo island actually placed 7th place, which I saw coming because there were SO many people who were indecisive, and decided to root for the underdogs... which are either Kiko Lake or Roo Island. Kiko lake is boring, and Roo island has many better things, and not to mention has a fun looking team with fun colors.... so Roo Island, being the festive team it is, was rooted for being the best of the underdogs, and actually made it popular in the cup, which led to it beating the REAL underdogs... tyrannia. Since tyrannia is a large world with 2 maps, which has been around for a long time and even had a plot, nobody would think it would be the underdogs.... but in reality, "prehistoric" just isnt as cool as a waterworld, futuristic, desert, medieval, etc.... its the prehistoric land, and nothing exciting has happened there for a VERY long time.... its just been another spot on the map for about 4 or so years! And thus they were the true underdogs all along, but people voted for the "apparent underdogs"...which brought them there success! Hm!


I'd love to use these to make predictions now.... but we really cant since to dont know the line up.. until then....... we'll have to wait!

lol, if I had known about that poll, I would've voted for Faerieland
