I just played it once and dont want to play it again for another 10 days. UGHH its SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO long and draw out and BORING.
 
Oh and Neomancer its Slushie Slinger, Not Slushie Showdown :P

I don't like SS it's too slow. It's longer than YYB, yet less important so why play?

It's a wash whether I play YYB or SS, in terms of time and YYB equivalents. I play 4 MSN or 4-6 SoSd after starting SS, then I go feed the crowds by rows (starting in the back), collecting glasses as needed. Once I've cleared the room (leaving the slinger to wait for the empty glasses of the last row, usually the back row), I go play 4 more MSN, then return and clear again. Then I can usually play another set or two of 2-3 SoSd between turns, and then send as soon as it hits 300. It makes it kind of fun to be running around like crazy.
 
I do something similar in YYB: during the pauses on the initial game start-up screens and after every goal (during the tiny pause before "press space to continue" appears), I play one game of SoSd. Really, SoSd by itself is fastest, except when it hangs sending scores.

I get what you're saying -- I just am not sure how TNT can be comparing teams in different brackets who've not played each other. I think there's a reason that they have the first 3 all listed as 1st with the same amount of "points." And I wish we (RI) could play Altador, rather than being shunted into the second row just because we're both undefeated in the same bracket -- maybe we both belong in the top row. If the top 6 go into the same bracket next time, then it's fine whichever row we're in... Guess I'll just have to wait and see.

We are playing Altador tomorrow. Hopefully we can end their sweep streak.

Hello everyone! This is Matt reporting live from the newsroom, which is badly damaged due to yesterday's mishaps. Don't worry, we made sure that Austin is far away. The results from the Alabriss Bracket have just came in, so let's get right to it.
 
First off, we have Kiko Lake against Darigan Citadel. Now, the Kikos and the Minions faced each other yesterday, and while they were hoping for a better performance today, the match mirrored yesterday's game. Darigan was able to take everything except Slushie Slinger. The Minions have definitely proved that they're still a powerful contender for the Cup, and they don't show any signs of letting up soon.
 
Elsewhere, former champions Lost Desert and Kreludor went head to head today for the first time. Lost Desert started strong in the beginning, but during the second half, they lost steam and Kreludor was eventually able to catch up, winning the game with a close score of four to five. Kreludor was also able to take the remaining side games, cleanly sweeping Lost Desert on all fronts. Kreludor has been having an on and off season right now, sweeping twice and being close to swept just as often.
 
For the last matchup of this bracket we have Meridell versus Mystery Island. Mystery Island, despite placing in second last year, has not been doing well. If they can't fix their problems, they might be headed back to the lower tiers. Meridell however, shows no sign in letting up. They were able to obtain their first sweep of the season, cleanly sweeping the Natives in all games. We were able to get in a few questions with Meridell's Captain "Wizard" Windelle about their performance this season.
 
Mr. Windelle! How do you feel about your team's performance this year?
 
I think we're doing great so far! I'm really pleased with our first sweep, and hopefully we'll be able to keep up this good momentum in the days the come.
 
That's great! Now that you've experienced what some of the teams are like this season, who do you think will be your biggest competition?
 
Definitely Darigan. They're the only team so far that was able to take more than one win from us. I'm looking forward to playing against them again.
 
Awesome! One last question before you go, fans want to know how is Ethel Boortz fitting in?
 
She's fitting in really well! We've all bonded together, and that's one of the reasons why we're doing so well this year. We expect great things to come from her.
 
As do we, well I guess this is it. Thanks for your time and good luck today!
 
Now let's head over to Lydia who is in the field with the results from the...
 
Power goes out in the studio and all becomes silent.

Static sound fills the room and the video feed turns into a camera focused on the sunrise. It zooms out...
 


Good Morning Neopia! I am Austin and I am live in the outskirts of the Altador Colosseum to give you the latest Altador Cup news and scores. We'll first start off in the Minitheus bracket, where we have some breaking news this morning. After last night's incident, where Haunted Woods defender "Brains" Mortigan bit Maraquan defender Lamelle Turow, the Altador Athletics Committee has issued warnings to both sides for "foul play." The AAC, who in recent years has been very strict about on-field incidents, said in a public statement that "it is necessary for us to protect the integrity of the game. Let this be not just a warning to the two teams, but a warning to all teams. Foul play will not be tolerated in this year's Cup." We'll provide further details of the story as it unfolds.
 
Now, let's get onto yesterday's results. Even through all the drama, the Maraqua versus Haunted Woods match was a fantastic one. The Zombies were able to put a scare into their undersea rivals, as they walked away with a six to five victory. The Mermaids gave up their one point lead midway through the second half when star striker, Zo Junior, tied it up with a dazzling shot with the Faerie Yooyu. The Zombies then proceeded to tack on another goal just seconds after tying the game when Junior stole the ball and put another in the back of the net. Though emotions ran high through the whole match, Junior reminded all the fans, "You know, it's just a game. At the end of the day, it's all just a game. Things got heated, but we respect the Maraquan team and look forward to another matchup."
 
Krawk Island took on Terror Mountain last night, in what proved to be an exciting match. The Pirates and Chillers were tied at five apiece late in the second half. With Terror Mountain on a fastbreak, Krawk Island defender, Zayle Sufhaux, made an excellent tackle to regain possession for the Pirates. He then passed it to rising star, Ealyn Hawkshanks, who put the yooyu into the net to secure the victory for Krawk Island. When asked about his game-changing tackle after the game, Sufhaux mentioned, "Aye! It probably be the best tackle of me career. In such a close game, me like how it turned it around. Arrrr!"
 
The Fossils continued their winning ways with another win over Brightvale. Tyrannia ran away with the game early with three goals from Loryche before the half. The Wizards made it somewhat interesting in the second half, as they were able to make it a one point game with under one minute to play. Tyrannia had all the answers though, as they shut the game out like the meteors shut out the dinosa-
 
[mumbling from the side]
 
Wait, what? Too soo- I can't what? You're just some guy I gave a camera to, you can't tell me wha- Ohhh, it's offensive? Oh wow... errrrrrr...
 
My apologies, folks, we're having some... technical difficulties.
 
Let's now move to the Vaeolus bracket.
 
Altador continued their dominating ways with a huge win for the second time in a row against the Robots of Virtupets. Altador took command of the game early and never looked back, winning eight to five. Altador has yet to score less than seven points in a game thus far. Could this really be the year the hosts hoist the Cup?
 
Roo Island remains undefeated, taking down Moltara for the second time this Cup. Roo Island kept control of a tight match and ultimately won five to four. Roo Island is looking to seriously compete for the top spot in the Cup for the first time since Altador Cup III. Moltara has now dropped their fourth straight game in this year's Cup. In their slow start, the Magmas are only getting a 35% shot on target ratio, a drastic change from last year's 67%.
 
Shenkuu rebounded very well after getting swept by the Rooligans, by ousting the Faeries six to five. Shenkuu is looking to get back into a groove after being swept twice in a row. Shenkuu, while relatively disappointing so far, is used to starting slow and turning their fortunes around late cup. Could the Ninjas put together another magical run again this season? Yesterday's win could be a great start for them.
 
Next, let's move onto the matches to wat-
 
 
The screen suddenly changes to the newsroom.
 
Hello everyone! Matt again! It seems we have the situation under control. Don't worry, agents are being deployed to the source of the hack as we speak. Now, let's continue with the matches to watch for the day.
 
Kreludor and Kiko Lake will be facing off today. Both of them are in the middle of their bracket, and they'll be looking to hopefully rise up in the standings. With only a few days left in the bracket, every win counts!
 
Screen abruptly switches back
 
No one cuts me off!
 
Greetings, Neopia, I'm Austin and I am back to give you the rest of the matches for today.
 
Next we have the Zombies of Haunted Woods take on the Chillers of Terror Mountain. While both teams are near the bottom of the bracket, this is a very intriguing matchup. The Zombies were able to snag their first Yooyuball win of the season yesterday. If they plan to stay in contention for the Cup, today will be a big chance at points for the former champs. Terror Mountain, on the other hand, will be trying to avoid staying at the bottom of the pack.
 
Last but not least, we have Faerieland versus Virtupets. With Virtupets struggling recently, Faerieland have a faerie good chance at picking up some points today. The Faeries have been able to get wins in the past two days, while Virtupets has struggled remarkably. If Virtupets wants to prevent falling in dead last, they'll need to pick up a win in this one. This should be a great game to watch.
 
And that concludes our segment. Thank you for joining us, Neopia. Stay classy.

BUUUUUUUUUT i managed to relate it back to the topic duoo soooo..... why you keep ....... so technically there was no crime am i wrong? (don't answer that)

If you go to the Neo[Removed] website and read carefully you will understand. BTW it is a site made for cheating. Neo[Removed] is so bad, that if you mention them in the Neopets boards your account will be frozen! If that isn't good enough to convince to you that Neo[Removed] is a bunch of cheaters, then you Sir/Ma'am are clearly blind. I'm not saying Tyrannia itself is a cheating team as a whole, but like Meridell last year they got involved (non-intentionally) with the smartest most annoying cheaters in the business. and still i will repeat, and rephrase, 'considering that KI is behind a team under help of Neo[Removed], to me it doesn't matter that i can't tell the score cuz we are behind the best.' Are you satisfied now?

But this forum allows us to express our opinion. Does it not?

But if [Removed] wouldnt have joined TY, TY wouldnt be ahead of KI. Its alright for an asg to join a team but not score senders.

I hate it but i know that is is correct cuz we in second behind a team the has Neo[Removed], a group of cheaters, but i still don't like it but these things when its like this with KI in second behind cheaters you know it's true cuz we da best! :laughingsmiley:

It's motivating for me as a Rooligan to see that Altador is strong -- really strong. When we go against them, I hope to really play my heart out, knowing we'll be underdogs -- and that even avoiding the sweep will show we belong up there in the top tier.

Well religion gives everyone a guide to life, what they should do and what they should not. Most religions tell people right from wrong so I think that religions are good.

FINALLY! YES! MY VOUCHERS ARE AWESOME! NOW TO GET BGC. LITERALLY FREAKING OUT.

Hi guys! For the last little while, this has been fermenting in my head, and I finally got around to writing TNT a feedback ticket about it. My idea concerns being able to purchase certain stamps from the Hidden Tower. I've already sent in the exact message below via the ticket system (hopefully they actually get read xD), but I'm interested to know what other Neopians think of the idea. This is a suggestion that would most largely affect stamp collectors and people who resell crazy expensive stamps, but I would like to hear what others think as well.
 
Do you think having stamps available like this is a good idea? For those of you who have managed to get some of these exclusive stamps, whether by having an old account or by buying them, do you think it would be fair to have them for sale, keeping in mind they would still cost A LOT?

Hehe. On the neoboards SK and RI formed an alliance called RISK. Hopefully we can continue it on TDN.

I think that Haunted Woods suits you.

Woot! Another Rooligan! I hope the bracket system is nicer to us than last year. We'll definitely get back into the top half, but let's aim for the top tier so we're in with a chance for the Cup!

I love both series but I'm afraid that Avatar: The Last Airbender tops Legend of Korra in everything.

Thank you to a certain somebody on here who very kindly gave me their Draik (I got to name him too!!!!)

I've painted Dydraik Plushie and given him a Plushie Mazzew :)
