I don't have the items but it might be worth asking around on the boards and checking DTI's listings to see who might have them. Values wise Meridell Team Foam Finger is around ~5, Meridell Team Sport Shirt doesn't have a value on Waka and Meridell Team Crazy Wig is ~1-2 so likely the easiest to get. Values off Waka as Owls doesn't have updated values for them. Sorry, I can't get my bolding to go away, I'm not shouting I promise!

In the lack of a 2022 section, I'm posting here. What is everyone working towards? I'm aiming for All-Star, but not pushing myself to double like last year as I just don't have the time. I want the Yooyu and maybe the stamp from the shop at the end...

Oooh, that would make sense. And I can't complain. I got two trophies after all! Today's achievement is the first step in my next cross paint: Next step is Transparent and with a Grey Weewoo is I can find a decently priced pb!

Well, I got these two: Strangely though, I didn't get the Top Chop one despite still being in the bronze scoring zone: Not sure what's happened there!

There are teams that recruit the higher end players to join a team together and get them to the podium. I suspect the maxes will be the same. We won't know until it starts though. Or just very sad! I fully admit that I had no life other than the AC for the entire month! Good luck with maxing YYB!

I was always half way good and I actually enjoyed them which is useful. Not good good, but half way good. Pre-Flash dying, I doubt I'd have gotten anywhere near a trophy even at the beginning of the month. Post Flash dying, I'm not sure what the scores will look like at the beginning of the month, but I suspect I can upgrade to silver... maybe. We'll see if today's gaming spurt shows rewards. I'm currently at bronze for Jubble Bubble and Top Chop thingymebob. I might also manage to upgrade my silver to gold in Bouncy Supreme. I'm debating my next avatar game - Typing Terror or Ice Cream Machine... both drive me crazy!

My brief gaming spurt yesterday got me two new trophies... You can tell how few people are playing by the fact that I got them so late on in the month!

I had a job that required very, very little effort from me at the time. I'd spent a long time getting all the ducklings in order and by the time last years AC came around, I could essentially doss for four days, work manically for half a day to a day and then sit and doss again. And all my reports looked like I'd worked hard all week! This meant that I got all my YYB and a lot of MSN/SOSD done in the working day. I then had absolutely no life. My poor husband was counting down the days by the end of the Cup as I'd sit all evening and play either SOSD or SS on my phone as those were the two games that worked on my phone. We did go on holiday for a long weekend which screwed me over slightly as there was no way I could sit in a hotel room and play AC. So for those days I just tried to max SOSD in the evening so I didn't get too far behind. So essentially, I was putting in anywhere between 8-12 hours I suspect with brief spurts of working, eating and then sleeping! It got me Double All-Star... and very sore fingers! I'm not sure what this year will bring. I have a new job which actually requires me to work most of the time. And if it goes manic it requires me to work ALL of the time! I'm hoping to be able to get All-Star at lease. If I can max YYB every day and put some time into SOSD in the evening, I should get there. I don't think Double All-Star is a runner though!

Thank you for looking into this and explaining it so well! I am... not the most technologically advanced and probably shouldn't have downloaded it without doing my research. You've made me feel a little better about my admittedly impulsive decision!!

So I've gone from not knowing what SOTAC was two years ago to being head hunted! That's a turn up for the books!

I had the same issue. I downloaded regular Flash and it didn't work. I ended up following the first comment here (which my husband would have killed me if it went wrong!): The comment was: https://www.dropbox.com/s/jxobqr9nf2uext5/CleanFlash_34.0.0.192_Installer.exe use this And that seemed to work perfectly!

After two years odd waiting on neopets to get their backsides into gear, I have finally given in and downloaded PaleMoon. Why? Because without the games, I'd all but lost interest in Neopets. It's frankly a miracle that I lasted as long as I did when the main things I was interested in were trophy and avatar hunting. I never thought I'd be so grateful to see this: I have less than days before the AC to get back into the swing of neopets again though...

*mods, feel free to move this into the new AC board once it's created. I had a looksie and it doesn't seem to be available right now so went for General instead. I just received a very nice and polite email congratulating me on my Altador Cup scores and number of plays last year, noting that I switched teams a lot and asking if I'd already picked a team for this year. Interestingly, the individual has been with three different teams in four years. Those teams have ranked 1st twice and 2nd twice. Could this be a SOTAC head hunt or am I just blowing my own trumpet?

I just wish I'd have looked it up sooner in honesty. I must have been 16-17 when I reached that point... I'm 34 now! And admittedly, I've only tried in blasts but that's still a good long time! Congrats! If you haven't already twigged, the AC is starting next month and if you can get the stamp it usually sells for a couple of million to boost you further!

HAH! After all this time!! Now onto the silver trophy!

He's strangely cute. Vandy's are definitely growing on me.

HE'S SO FLOOFY! I need it!! So very floofy! *runs in circles excitedly* *stops* Oh darn it, that's two Toy Paintbrushes I now need to pick up... The Cotzan design is cool as well. Possibly a cheaper 'crosspaint' option than an LD paint brush!

I love that gummy worm!! And the outfit is minimalistic and very detailed! I love the sash and the tongue. I have extra items for my eventual Voldemort custom!

Good job I'd already used all my points as I completely missed this!

Oh both the outfit and the colour are very good indeed! The splash and tusk detail on the water is excellent and the Judge Hog outfit is very well done!

I might actually have a shot at silver now! Doubt I'll ever get to gold though! EDIT: Just beat the next Tournament. Admittedly, the game is less challenging when one routine wins 90% of the time. But it beats being as frustrated as I was for bloody years by Master Vex!

Food Club - although not as good for new accounts. Dailies - Trudy gives increasing amounts up to about 20k for 24 days and 100k on day 25, so worth logging in every day just to do it. Do all your dailies, even the junk ones as junk can be stocked up for Charity Corner. Things like fishing have a small chance of mega buck items at higher levels, but even storing the junk gets you future points. Same with the Money Tree - aim for 2-6 point items if there's nothing decent. Restocking - pick one or two shops and start learning the items. You can make decent np even on lower end items and mega bucks if you get lucky. I tend to go for 20% profit, but you can figure out what you prefer. Battledome - You can get codestones to sell from the Koi Warrior or Nerkmids from Jetsam Ace if you are Premium. Refresh a lot - games like Neoquest or Cellblock or just buying junk for Charity Corner give a lot of refreshes and increase your opportunity for RE's. Most are useless. Some give stat gains, some nominal neopoints. A handful can drop truly valuable items on you. Events - The Altador Cup is coming up. Take part, get as many points as you can and sell your prizes for decent change. If you can aim for the stamp, that's usually worth a couple of million. Last year I got the top prize (that took real effort though... Double All-Star is not fun and my fingers hurt and I had no life at all outside of the Cup...) and sold it for 16 million. Bought myself a Candychan and banked the rest. Charity Corner made me several million a couple of years ago.

You inspired me to try again. And after years of being stuck on this round, I finally looked up the best way to play and won!! I've spent years - literally, I got to this point as a teenager and never surpassed it - playing defensively. I'd start off with the obvious move and then try at random to make lines, but more focussed on blocking their lines. It worked well until this round and then failed miserably. Having looked it up, I've finished the round in... ummm... ten minutes or so,

You can also buy more pet slots now if you have NC. I currently have 15 on my main.

Didn't realise that Charity Corner counted. All I needed to do was discard one item from the inventory...
