NM me on that account if you're interested! Will hold until 14th of this month.

What did you buy?

I'm going to go for all of the headbands. Every year, I like to buy one of each team item.

Those are epic levels! How do you find the time to play so much and how do you keep yourself from giving up?

What rank are you currently on, and what are you aiming for?

I've hit 9, and probably won't go any further. I'm pretty happy with it. When I started, I didn't have any particular level in mind, just as high as I could.

Something I noticed was that the opponent keeper will very briefly turn their back to the action, which is a good time to shoot. But the timing has to be perfect before they turn back again.

When I play the first 3 YYB games every day, I will start over as many times as it takes for me to get 7 goals so I can earn 3k NP. If I don't score those 7 within a certain timeframe or get too many Darigans, I'll restart. 

Another thing I'll do is commit "sui***e" when I get a Darigan. I'll grab the ball, go to Xana and give it to her, then make her score an own goal. Yes, the opposing team gets the goal, but it means I don't have to waste time trying to score myself. However, I'll only do this if I'm a good bit ahead in goals, or if there's plenty of time for me to score more.

I agree i used to score 9-11 and finding i am more in the area of 5-7, the opposite team seems to grab the ball alot more as well and they seem abit more aggressive to me compared to when i played last year

Absolutely! They really are more aggressive. It's so frustrating. 

Is it just me, or is it harder this year to both score, and keep the ball away from opponents? I used to be able to get 9-11 in a good game, but this year it's 6-8. Also, my dumb players keep handing the ball to the keepers! 

Is it just me, or is A.C. a little harder this year? I find it harder to get shots past the keeper, and the opposing team's AI seems smarter. In past years, I was able to get 10-12 goals in a good game, but this year, I only usually get up to 8.

Ooo, Duolingo! 

I've been using that for a few years, but not frequently. I've been back at it recently, however, mainly to keep my daily streak going.

My main course is French, which I find pretty easy because I had to learn it in high school in the '90s.

Spanish, though I've not done it for a while.

Norwegian (Bokmal): apparently it's one of the easiest languages to learn, and I quite like it.

German: though I've not done it for a while.

Haitian Creole: similar to French in a lot of ways. Got a good way into it, but then longer phrases were thrown at me and I had a hard time keeping up.

SPORTS DAY!!!

Yeh, egg and spoon, three-legged race, sack race, running...

During P.E. we had those bars that pulled out from the walls in the assembly hall, and we had to climb the ropes. Then there were the hula hoops, bean bags and there were small rings made of rubber. Then there were the long, low wooden benches with those metal...flappy...things at the ends and rubber nubs also at the ends.

Reading: my fave authors are Wilbur Smith (historical fiction) and Stephen King (Horror)

Photography: I have a camera and like to use it.

Apart from those, I use the internet a lot for online simulation games like Neopets and Subeta.

I love animals, especially horses. I used to ride, but last time I was on a horse was 2001. I was promised I could ride the Clydesdale that lived at the animal sanctuary I volunteered at, when I had finished my work. It had been a lifelong dream just to see a Clydes in real life (I don't recall ever having knowingly met one prior to that) so he was my favourite out of all the horses there.

Not being a gamer per se, I don't game much. But I do play certain sims online: NP, Horse Phenomena, Lioden and Subeta. 
NP: dailies with most activity during AC
Horse Phenomena: active
Lioden: borderline obsessively  active
Subeta: for Bath House daily. Mostly active during events.

I also play Pokemon Go on occasion, and on my phone I have Make More! and Egg Inc.

I wish pets like that would be deleted from the game. lol

I miss those games, too. Though not the optical illusion thing from Pter, where if you look away from the game board, everything seems like it's moving. On Lioden there's a game which has that kind of effect, though it's a side-scroll game as opposed to...uh...up-scrolling? down-scroll? Horizontal as opposed to vertical.

Also, in Pter, I think my fave weapon was the fireball. Just hold down your space bar and let 'em have it! "PEW! PEW!"

I used to adopt from the Pound, zap the pet then put it back into the Pound again. But recently I've been creating new pets with good names, zapping those and putting them UFA in the Pound forum. 

I don't know why, but I love doing this and have come up with amusing and thoughtful names such as "FiveMoreMinutes" and "SomeoneCares".  After adopting out a freshly-zapped-to-plum Chia, I made a JubJub to zap, with the name of "GoAndPlayWillYa", but I might keep him if I get a colour I like! 

My fave species to zap are Chia, JubJub and Kiko as they give funny results!

Zapped "FiveMoreMinutes" the blue Chia to plum.

Well, wonder no more!
 

Hah! 
I think I'll stick with what I have for now.

You are aware you can have up to 4 side accounts?

No, I didn't!
I mean...uh...of course I did. I just...uh...forgot.

*ahem*

*sidles off to go do...something*

Unfortunately, I already have a full side. lol

The desert Uni looks like a paint horse.

The spotted Koi looks like a koi carp.

The spotted Hissi looks like a real snake.

The spotted Vandagyre looks like a real owl.

You zap a pet with the intention of Pounding, but end up wanting to keep it yourself? -__-

I had created a Chia with a good name and was zapping it until it changed so someone could adopt a nice pet. But he's just zapped to dimensional and now I wanna keep him for myself. But all my other slots are used, so I can't start on a new zap pet. Dangit!

How 'bout you?
