Altador Cup Question

[twilight790]

What is the maximum amount of times you can play Yooyuball and it actually counts toward your team and rank? What about the other games?

They definitely all have caps, but it's likely that they'll be slightly changed from years prior. From what I can find, it seems to be 301 games of Yooyuball, 301 games of Slushie Slinger, 1201 games of Make Some Noise and 1201 games of Shootout Showdown.

Last year caps were 68 games for YYB, 139 for SlSl, and 762 for MSN and SoSd.

Were those caps for each day, or in total? (I've never really worked for the AC...)

It's per day, so it'll reset at midnight each time. You can play more than that, but they won't count for your team, and I believe it doesn't add to your rank either but someone should double-check me on that.

Am I correct in remembering that only scores of a certain amount count? So like so many hundred in MSN, so many hundred in SS?

Yes. Here's the information from this other thread:

 

I believe limits are the same as last year so:

• Yooyuball
  • Games Per Day: 68
  • Minimum Score: 1 Goal
• Shootout Showdown
  • Games Per Day: 762
  • Minimum Score: 1 Goal*
• Slushie Slinger
  • Games Per Day: 139
  • Minimum Score: 270
• Make Some Noise
  • Games Per Day: 762
  • Minimum Score: 3000

I read in the guides that minimum score for Slushie Slinger is 300. 

[Bodhi]

Yes. Here's the information from this other thread:

 

Thanks for the reply! Now I know better what I'm shooting for in each!

I saw a post while looking through some of the older threads.  The post was from last year but I am not sure if the AC counters in them are current.  I am assuming they are.  The person has 51,000+ games for SOSD and MSN and 10,000+ games for YYB.  Given the caps for the games and the number of days we have been playing, that is not even possible.  That is not even possible throughout the entire cup.  The cup runs for the entire month, right?  If SOSD and MSN were 1000 games per day for 30 days, that would be 30,000 games.  But they aren't 1000 games per day, I was being generous.  So why would someone lie about their count?  Even other years, when SOSD and MSN were 1201 games per day, that is still only 36,030 games per month.

The minimum score for MSN is 2700. The scores I send over that are counted, but I did accidentally send a few dud scores around 2600.

[Avia loves Chias]

if i lose a game of YYB and don't want it to count, can i just restart the game and not send in the score? is that considered cheating or is it implied that's what you're supposed to do?

[neo_ryan_3_3_3]

From last years forums it's showing YYB 68, SS 139 and MSN/SOSD 762. I think it was the years before that the caps were 301 and 1201

Yep, like people said, the caps are 68 for Yooyuball, 139 for Slushie Slinger, and 762 for Make Some Noise and Shootout Showdown. For them to count, you must get a score of 300 in Slushie Slinger, 3,000 in Make Some Noise, and only 35 points for Shootout Showdown (which is one goal).
