kermitsgirl Posted June 25, 2012 Posted June 25, 2012 I don't know about everyone else, but I'm rather glad it's over this year. Everything was so confusing and stressful, and the game servers didn't seem to be able to handle the amount of people playing very well. My husband is especially happy that I'm not going to be freaking out after work with my "BUT I HAVE TO GET X MANY GAMES DONE BEFORE I GO TO BED."
complicatedwishes Posted June 25, 2012 Posted June 25, 2012 Hahaha :') I have to admit I am glad that its over too, because I've been the same. "oh dear X amount of games to do before I can go to sleep"
Ashbash Posted June 25, 2012 Posted June 25, 2012 I'm excited to get prizes but I wouldn't have minded a few more days of play. It wasn't really stressful to me and I thought things went pretty smoothly. The new format was a bit confusing but I tried to just not pay attention to the brackets and things and just play as much as I could each day.
Spritzie Posted June 25, 2012 Posted June 25, 2012 I enjoyed this year, and reached my goal of All Star, but I'm glad it's over. My wrist hurts, and I'm tired. :D Now I can't wait for the prize shop and getting back to playing games for NP.
Sakeru_Kyori Posted June 25, 2012 Posted June 25, 2012 I enjoyed this year, and reached my goal of All Star, but I'm glad it's over. My wrist hurts, and I'm tired. :D Now I can't wait for the prize shop and getting back to playing games for NP. Same here, and I think my wrist is really messed up too. It hurts to rotate it or crack it even. Lol it might be carpel tunnel or something. Congrats on All Star. :)
Tedhaun Posted June 25, 2012 Posted June 25, 2012 It's not really over until TNT confirms the tie breaker match between Meridell and Mystery Island since they can't share the 2nd place trophy together (as shown here). Other than what I posted above, I feel rather moderate that the cup ended, though I'm still rather down that TNT shortened it for whatever reason (I miss the old format and all of that time you had to rack up Rank Points). At least ranking up was easier this year than it was last year boundaries-wise. Took me the first nine days to get to All-Star (and I tired out after making it there).
lovedwallflower Posted June 25, 2012 Posted June 25, 2012 well i reached my goal of rank 10 and finished up at 11. i dunno about this cup.. everything was so random it was very disheartening at times. ill play again next year of course :)
Shiny Vulpix Posted June 25, 2012 Posted June 25, 2012 We have a tie-breaker as well,those Moltarans should be ready!
Illyria Posted June 25, 2012 Posted June 25, 2012 I enjoyed it; it was a nice break from working on NeoQuest. It was just long enough for me to be happy about getting back to NQ now! I'm looking forward to the possible tie breakers and seeing the prize shop opened, rewards handed out, etc.
Haliaetus Posted June 25, 2012 Posted June 25, 2012 I enjoyed it for a little bit, but I got bored of the games quite easily, so I'm kind of glad it's over and excited to get some prizes.
voteforpedro333 Posted June 25, 2012 Posted June 25, 2012 In the end, I was more or less satisfied. I had a slump in the middle, and if I had played as hard as I did this weekend the entire cup, I would have gotten really far. But I paced myself out and didn't get too tired while still helping the team, so I'm happy with that.
RigelB Posted June 25, 2012 Posted June 25, 2012 I'm quite glad it's over too. I was really into the spirit at the games at the beginning, but as the new system started to take form and I realised how out of my reach All-Star was, I slumped off a bit in the middle. But I paced myself towards the end and kept playing and managed to reach my new target of Rank 10.
wistiria12 Posted June 25, 2012 Posted June 25, 2012 I'm kinda glad it's over, but i wouldn't mind if it had a few more days. This year I spent so much with my parents that I almost didn't play this year ( Oh well! Atleast I enjoyed it. I really wanted prizes but I guess I won't get any because of my super low rank :(
Lady Lyuba Posted June 25, 2012 Posted June 25, 2012 Yeah - man so glad the stress is over. This was a shoddy year with the new system. I hope next year's Cup will be the old way again! :D Anywhoot, now that I have time again, time to see Brave! And draw my Water faerie.
glorious918 Posted June 26, 2012 Posted June 26, 2012 It's over??? Nooo!!!! I need to play more! WAMMMMMMMYYYYYYY!!!!
Balance Posted June 27, 2012 Posted June 27, 2012 Good riddance, I say. I've participated in every Cup so far, and I'm sick of them. There's nothing like an event that requires grinding Flash games to remind you that TNT makes really bad Flash games. I won't speak for anyone else, but I, personally, don't find anything fun in any of the Cup games. I find them boring and crudely made, at best, and there's really no excuse for it at this stage. They've been running these things for years, so it's not like they haven't had time to polish them. I've kept doing it so long out of a perverse sense of loyalty, I suppose. I've stuck with Shenkuu for a long while now; I like to contribute for the sake of the other loyal ninja. It's been a colossal waste of time, though. Maybe it just took this year's shoddy bracket mechanic to make me admit it.
skylee Posted June 27, 2012 Posted June 27, 2012 i wouldn't mind playing a bit more. but i am excited for prizes
Tedhaun Posted June 27, 2012 Posted June 27, 2012 Ended up playing 205 Yooyuball games yesterday, and got exhausted due to lack of rest and such. You want to know what I have to really say? It's really all 100% over... It'll be officially over when the final results are out and the Prize Shops released, too. Now I can go back and watch animes and all of that other stuff I liked doing before the cup started.
khaos Posted June 27, 2012 Posted June 27, 2012 Wait a minute... Kreludor won this one and Virtupets won the last one and they're both in space... But anyway, I'm pretty glad that it's over. If ki can't get anything good out of the prize shop, i might end up saving them for the next AC.

Once the next Altador Cup starts, the prize shop points from the past AC will become null and void, so spend them before ACVIII begins!
Finn the Human Posted June 27, 2012 Posted June 27, 2012 Its sorta good that its done.... All the tension..... Khaos, I don't think that you can rack up prize shop points from previous Altador Cups. Once the next Altador Cup starts, the prize shop points from the past AC will become null and void, so spend them before ACVIII begins!

Balance Posted June 28, 2012 Posted June 28, 2012 Now I can go back and watch animes and all of that other stuff I liked doing before the cup started. You mean you weren't all along? I would have gone mad (or at least quit) long ago if I did nothing but stare at the tedious games I was playing. I shrink my browser window down to the size of the game, then run video in another window. It's not like you have to actually pay attention to the games to rack up the required scores.
