I signed up for Meridell because they remind me of how the Rooligans used to be back in the old days, very friendly and encouraging no matter how much you play.

I signed up last week with Roo, lest I forget. I was in a rush and gave it next to zero thought. Just went with the same as last year, but first made sure there was still a Lupe on the team ;)

I also received the "16 year" Roo thingie D)

yay. go roo. woo. hoo. yay team.

Sorry. My enthusiasm appears to have waned a bit :/

ETA: Got in 2 wins each on YYB, SS, SoS and MSN. I am now officially a "Participant."

Staff Tournament has begun.

Make sure you select your team before 14th June. You must change your team or select Keep Team to enter this Round!


I'll deal with making my team later today.

I'm actually ahead of my usual goals at this point. I have no clue how the rest of the cup will go, so I'm playing more than I usually would.

Thanks Pickles! I would have missed the Staff Tourney Sign-ups otherwise.

Looks like a lot of new players this year. Might be a rocky start this go-round...

I went with who I know and a few unknowns. Well, one Unknown :lol:
SenorMalo, Rizzard, KikoCat, Unknown, and Binary Supergoo.

Star Player: SenorMalo

Yeah, I'm not sure how round one will go. I'm going with people who have done it before this round, which is probably not what will be best, but I don't want to play a guessing game on newbies right now.

SenorMalo, Miss Rainbow, KikoCat, Aesop, and Binary Supergoo.
Star Player: Binary Supergoo

Is there a list of prior scores somewhere easy to sort through? I won't have time to look until probably Sunday, but I don't want to forget.

I'm at rank 9 as of yesterday.

I am impressed. I have not completed a grand total of 9 games... (Still at 2 each)

I made it to rank 8 last night. Didn't play anything but SOSD yesterday because I was busy getting the stamp from the app.

JellyNeo has a guide with last year's scores.

Impressed with both of your ranks. I managed to play 3 more YYB games yesterday... This might be more than last year :lol:

I independently picked the identical team to Pickles! But went with Miss Rainbow for star player.

Except I can't see any indication that my star player selection actually took? Is that normal? It worries me because of things like the obelisk clicking things not always working lately. It would be nice for there to be a line saying "You picked X as star player." Unless you guys have that line?

Current rank is 13. If I got my goal for tomorrow, I should make 15.

P.S. SOSD is easy to play on the phone. I can play it barely looking at it, so I can usually get half my games in at work. You do have to wait at least ten seconds before sending scores in any games, though. (I can't do MSN on my phone. I managed a 2-0 in YYB in my first try, but it's so buggy, if you can use a computer, it's much better.)

Star player is noted by a little gold star on their picture in the team roster you've picked. Very subtle, but it's there.

I made it to rank 10 plus a little yesterday. I did NOT want to stay on Rank 9 any longer than necessary - I think it's the ugliest rank combination there is. Yellow gem plus bronze? Bleh. I spent more time dealing with the Island Builders game over the last few days than I probably should've, or I might've gotten in some more extra games...but I didn't. :lol: I'm still ahead of track for making it to All Star, so I feel like I'm doing well this year. Better to be ahead than behind!

I'm doing AC solely on the computer. I don't even attempt to do Neo on my phone. It's too small.

Blue, you ought to aim for rank 1! There's usually a free NC item if you get that far.

Thanks, Pickles! The star didn't show up on my computer, but I just checked and it's there on my phone.

Glad you found it, Siniri. :)

Quote:
Okay... so that's... times 4... carry the 7... ah! Given your chosen team's performance, you've earned yourself 5304 Neopoints!

Kikocat, Aesop, and Binary Supagoo pulled through. Senor Malo was in third, and Miss Rainbow was in 4th, so two newbies beat them out. I'm definitely dropping Miss Rainbow and replacing her with Dingo, but I think I'll keep Senor Malo and hope he pulls through next round. I chose Aesop as my star player for round 2.

Interface is a bit messier this year. You have to find your player in the top section to drop them, rather than just clicking on your roster. Not the easiest way to go.

I made it to rank 12 last night, and hopefully will hit rank 13 today. Almost halfway to All Star....
