andaraen Posted May 24, 2013 Share Posted May 24, 2013 But...but...brains...they is tasty. Whose brains am I supposed to eat now? :c Anyways, glad to see a place for us Haunties! I checked the neoboards and there wasn't a single Haunted Woods thread! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anit0523 Posted May 25, 2013 Share Posted May 25, 2013 I didn't know which team to pick, so I ended up going with the Haunted Woods because of how many mutants are in my neofamily. I best represent them. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blaisezabini Posted May 26, 2013 Share Posted May 26, 2013 Gooooo Haunties! Let's spook up the competition this year! ;) Also, @andaraen, the Neoboards HW thread is OHWD (Official Haunted Woods Devotees) with the three fang smilies. Stop by and chat when you can! ^^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HauntedWoods3163 Posted May 26, 2013 Share Posted May 26, 2013 Glad to see that there's finally some dedicated Haunted Woods Supporters because sometimes I feel like I'm the only person playing on it and especially last year since we lost so many times. By the way this is the new counter for 2013 and if you want it go to this link http://www.thedailyneopets.com/altador-cup/counters/. Gooooo Haunties! Let's spook up the competition this year! ;) Also, @andaraen, the Neoboards HW thread is OHWD (Official Haunted Woods Devotees) with the three fang smilies. Stop by and chat when you can! ^^ Yeah, I want to join OHWD since they are so devoted to Haunted Woods (hence the name) as soon as I turn 13 next year on March 16th.

blaisezabini Posted May 26, 2013 Share Posted May 26, 2013 Oh, there are plenty of dedicated supporters on the AC Neoboard! :) We tend to garner a few freeloaders too (I think a petpage said we had as many as Faerieland for ACVII). I don't really know what happened to cause our abysmal YYB record (1 win overall, yikes!) last year, tbh, but I know that the new format was off-putting to some and a few of our veteran players were unable to play. I have high hopes for this year, though! No more ninth place for us! Awesome! All of the Haunties are super friendly. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course we're friendly! We may look scary and have a tendency to eat brains, but we're really nice at heart! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We may look scary and have a tendency to eat brains, but we're really nice at heart! I found the petpage I was alluding to right here. There's more on the page on how it was calculated. Whether or not freeloaders truly have an effect... I guess that's debatable. xD You can't really predict freeloader numbers for the upcoming season, but generally the more popular a team is, the more freeloaders there are. Exactly! We're just misunderstood creatures. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pokeneodragon Posted May 27, 2013 Author Share Posted May 27, 2013 Greeting fellow haunties! I hope you're all preparing yourselves for ACVIII. Speaking of preparing for the Altador cup, what is everyone doing to prepare for the cup? I'm getting my music playlist sorted out for those long and slow games of Slushie Slinger. I'll also be setting my site theme to the Altador Cup theme once it actually starts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blaisezabini Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 I decked out my lab rat in HW/AC gear from past years. b) And a music playlist is a good idea! I like putting on Amnesia: The Dark Descent playthroughs while I power through SOSD and SLSL. Sets a spooky mood, I think! Almost 26 hours to go, woohoo! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andaraen Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 How has day one been treating the Haunties? *points at siggy* I think I've been doing fairly well. I'm also getting a GPG of 4.973. Edit: I just got this score and I am so proud. c: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HauntedWoods3163 Posted June 2, 2013 Share Posted June 2, 2013 I was so surprised when we got sweeped yesterday by Tyrannia and now we're versing Krawk Island, one of the toughest teams so we seriously need to focus on these two games, Yooyuball and Make Some Noise, since those are what the games they lost when they versed Maraqua. Oh and I'm now Rank Level Three, I increased one rank against Tyrannia and 2 ranks today against Krawk Island so I pray that we at least draw one game. My GPG IS 10.32 and Zo Junior's GPG is 9.43.

blaisezabini Posted June 2, 2013 Share Posted June 2, 2013 Nice stats, you two! :D 14-1 is quite an impressive YYB score as well! We'll get Tyrannia next time. ;) They had 15 YYB wins last year, so they're very good! Besides, it was a very close match so we Haunties shouldn't get too discouraged. Time to finish up playing against KI! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pokeneodragon Posted June 2, 2013 Author Share Posted June 2, 2013 I was a bit disappointed when I saw that Tyrannia won this morning but, when I saw how close it was, I felt better. Hopefully we'll do better against Krawk Island. Today has been Play some AC games, smack a Brute in the BD, Play more AC games, smack a Sway member in the BD, play even more AC games, Smack some more brutes in the BD and so on. I just reached Rank 3 and decided to break away from my usual system of playing each game 5 times and then rotating to another game (My order tends to be SOSD, SLS, MSN and then YYB to keep things fresh) to try and give our team a boost by playing a lot more SOSD today since it has the bonus. My GPG is currently 9.05 so I don't think I'm doing too bad. Had a few cases of bad luck where the Darigan ball decided to popup early on and wasted like 2 minutes of game time until it when into the opponents goal (by them scoring it of course).

HauntedWoods3163 Posted June 2, 2013 Share Posted June 2, 2013 Speaking of Darigan Yooyus, I discovered a trick last year so that it goes in about 40% of the time. The trick is easy, just go to the farthest wall from your starting position, go under the net(make sure to be on the wall) away from the crease and shoot. Another thing to add is that it's still unpredictable so it might take a while to get it in sometimes. I checked the results today and we managed a win in Make Some Noise against Krawk Island! I'm also rank 4 now and my GPG is 10.402 and Zo Junior's GPG is 9.598 so hopefully we again win one the games again against Krawk Island. Don't give up Haunties, it's still the beginning of the Cup! By the way whenever my counter stats are updated it effects the posts that were shown previously or after it, so please don't think I don't do any work between the times of my posts because I really do. .

andaraen Posted June 5, 2013 Share Posted June 5, 2013 Since we're up against the Practice Team, do our scores simply not count today? 0.o Or is this just a glitch that'll get fixed later? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pokeneodragon Posted June 5, 2013 Author Share Posted June 5, 2013 Great job yesterday fellow haunties, we really gave Terror Mountain some chills and we even moved up a bit in the standings! Today is good day for break day since I need to go to bed early. Lets keep up the pressure tomorrow on our next opponents! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HauntedWoods3163 Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 We're off to an okay start this year and I can't express how awesome it is to finally sweep a team, and what's more is that it was a team that if they hadn't made us third in our final bracket last year we would have placed 8th instead of 9th. We should be glad to have an off-day so we can brush up on our skills and heighten our ranks, we will probably verse Brightvale tomorrow, and they have the exact same strengths as us so it'll be a tough match. By the way, did anyone take my advice for Darigan Yooyus that I posted earlier? If it's hard to understand message me on my TDN forums account. Since we're up against the Practice Team, do our scores simply not count today? 0.o Or is this just a glitch that'll get fixed later? No it's not a glitch and is happening once in every one of the 5 shuffles that we'll do this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

siniri Posted June 7, 2013 Share Posted June 7, 2013 Congrats, HW -- I don't know why your victory isn't reflected in your current bracket scores yet, but hopefully it will be soon, if you keep it up!

HauntedWoods3163 Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 Thanks Rooligans we have had some bad days and some good days but all that matters is that we work as a team and we're versing Faerieland today and we shouldn't underestimate them since we didn't sweep 'em last year.
