AKALeenaLean Posted April 5, 2012 Posted April 5, 2012 I know it's early for the AC, but this just bothered me when I played some of the AC games. YYB takes about 3 minutes. SLSL takes about 5 minutes. MSN takes 30 seconds. SOSD takes less than 30 seconds. Now SLSL is a side game, but to get a decent score, you play usually about the same time as you would a YYB game? Why do this? I mean shouldn't SLSL be rid off for a shorter, quicker game? YYB is the main game, so it should take the longest time, plus I played the game and it does take a while to get it going. What are your thoughts on this? Change it, keep it, or get rid of it and why? I say get rid of it.
keiwo Posted April 5, 2012 Posted April 5, 2012 i dunno, i really like slsl. it does take a long time in comparison to the other games but i guess it's a matter of preference. some people might spend all of their time playing slsl while others may allocate their time differently. as long as people are participating and enjoying it, i see no need to replace slsl. it adds a bit of variety to the tournament.
Xepha Posted April 5, 2012 Posted April 5, 2012 Most people are dreading SLSL because it takes so much time... However, if you start playing MSN or SHSH while the customers line up, it's not so bad. :P
Spritzie Posted April 5, 2012 Posted April 5, 2012 I would be upset if they removed it. Yes, it takes longer to play, but I really enjoy it. All the other games, side games and YYB, I sorta dread having to play and have to force myself. Slushie Slinger is just fun to me. If I didn't care about ranks, that would be all I'd really play.
Cassia Posted April 6, 2012 Posted April 6, 2012 I actually really like it. It's probably my favourite AC game, even though it takes a bit longer :P
Mirsha Plushie Posted April 6, 2012 Posted April 6, 2012 Actually, yes, they should keep it. I don't see why TNT should remove a side game. I could have used them back during the first cup, as then I was terrible at Yooyuball. :P

I was able to complete at least five ShoSho games before I had to get back into SLSL. Then I feed all the customers and serve a couple more.
john64 Posted April 12, 2012 Posted April 12, 2012 Slushie Slinger is a pretty nice game. Takes some time but still like playing it once in a while during the Altador cup since other games can get boring at times.
Batman Posted April 12, 2012 Posted April 12, 2012 Most people are dreading SLSL because it takes so much time... However, if you start playing MSN or SHSH while the customers line up, it's not so bad. :P I didn't figure that out until pretty much the end of last year. It made my favorite game SHSH a little less monotonous. So I would keep it. You just have to multi task for it to be the most efficient and useful.
nURLo Posted April 12, 2012 Posted April 12, 2012 When I get sick of playing YYB or my hands cramp from playing MSN I usually play Slushie Slinger. I don't find it's that annoying of a game. I try and go for the correct slushie per customer in the beginning and then end up just tossing whatever down the lane as the game gets faster. I hope they don't take it away... :( My vote is YAY!
ice cream man Posted April 13, 2012 Posted April 13, 2012 Slushie slinger is my favourite sidegame and I play it when I get bored of yooyuball. I would be mad if they got rid of it.
voteforpedro333 Posted April 13, 2012 Posted April 13, 2012 I enjoy it too, though if anything needs to be changed it's to have the beginning go just a tad faster than it does right now. As soon as you get the hang of it those higher speeds are pretty exhilirating and fun.
glorious918 Posted April 16, 2012 Posted April 16, 2012 It's a time consuming game, but we still want it. Besides, we have the option to not play it.
AKALeenaLean Posted April 17, 2012 Author Posted April 17, 2012 My point was that it's not weighted equally as YYB. For a side-game it's long and the points you get from it doesn't really match the other side games, except probably MSN. 12 games of MSN = 2 games of SLSL, that's 6 minutes vs 5 minutes. It may be your favorite, but it's not practical. It's a time consuming game, but we still want it. Besides, we have the option to not play it. I know you have the option of not playing I'm not stupid. I would choose other games over it because of the way it's weighted. YYB and SHSH seems like it makes the most sense.
Mireia Posted April 19, 2012 Posted April 19, 2012 As a truly Tyrannian supporter, yes! It should be! Many people who are not good at YYb choose to get their scores with this game, so it's always a good option.
Saxen Posted April 19, 2012 Posted April 19, 2012 I partly agree, but I also really like this game. When I get bored of playing YYB it's a nice break - though a bit long. I'd be happy if they just upped the points earned so it's easier to get a score quicker. :)
Tiara Posted May 10, 2012 Posted May 10, 2012 I loathe SLSL with passion but I can't imagine Faerieland without it. So my answer would be yes :)
Kaito Dark Posted May 17, 2012 Posted May 17, 2012 SLSL is my most favorite game in the AC. Its so much fun, even if it means 5 minutes of our time. AC won't be complete without it. It just makes the whole thing more interesting and more fun to play.
lucariovondimencio Posted May 17, 2012 Posted May 17, 2012 The underdogs (faerieland, kiko lake, altador, etc.) are RUBBISH without them. Moltara & Shenkuu (my favourite teams) are better in MSN, but still is a cool game so it's a yes for me
rachiee Posted May 18, 2012 Posted May 18, 2012 I don't play, like, or care about SLSL, but from what I can tell, people like it and some teams would suffer without it. With that said I'm all in favor of keeping SLSL in the next AC.
Secre Posted May 18, 2012 Posted May 18, 2012 It's not weighted fairly granted but I guess you make that choice when you play it - I enjoy it as a game when I get hacked with the other games. It's entertaining and useful for when you just need a break from the others. I'd be sorry to lose it I have to admit. Plus, I never thought of multi tasking on it and playing SDSO at the same time! Nowthat's a fantastic idea.
star_empyre Posted May 18, 2012 Posted May 18, 2012 I dread SLSL because my computer can be so slow at times and won't respond to my key smashing xD
Ashbash Posted May 20, 2012 Posted May 20, 2012 I'd say keep it and I really hope they do! it's my favorite of the cup games and definitely the one I play the most. I think it's a really fun game for those of us that are terrible at yooyu ball.
-Ryan Posted May 20, 2012 Posted May 20, 2012 Yeah, it adds variety to the other games. It drives me insane, but i'd prefer to have it there. Plus when the AC is over I can show off how many games of it I survived.
idriya Posted May 20, 2012 Posted May 20, 2012 Enough people like SlS that it shouldn't be removed. Somehow shortened, perhaps, but not removed.
