I'm happy to see that Terror Mountain is in the top 3 so far, I've never been on a high ranking team before. I picked Terror Mountain because when I looked at the "Which team will you support?" thread Terror Mountain was the top one. Congrats! The TDN thread, or a Neopets thread? (Because I don't think the amount of TDN members supporting a team is necessarily a good reflection of that team's total amount of players.) I'm currently at Rank 12, hoping to reach 13 before the Cup ends. I usually don't really set out with a specific rank in mind, I just see where I end up. It's usually between Rank 11 and 16; I just can't force myself to play more than that (nor do I have the time). But, go @jellysundae! You can do it! jellysundae 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have to ask: how? I mean, I made All-Star one year, but I only managed to do that because I was unemployed at the time, so I didn't really have anything else to do anyway. I guess I just never understood how there can be enough hours in a day to quad-max. Or how anyone can manage to quad-max without going insane.

XD This is the main thing, isn't it xD All about getting into the zone, I guess. I never thought I'd have the tolerance for maxing out SOSD, but that's turned out to be not that bad. Though right now at 34/401 games in, I'm doubting myself, lol. But it's been like that each time but I've managed it. But SOSD's the smallest of small beans isn't it, it's just a big deal for me, lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, but I think I'd never be able to get into any kind of zone with Make Some Noise. XD Yeah, I think I can see maxing SOSD. (Not every day though, but every once in a while, when the circumstances are juuuuuust right and I have no work and no other plans either, I might be able to max SOSD. I usually just... don't want to. ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though now I've hit All-star and I don't have something telling me how many games I need to rank up I'm a little rudderless. I have maxed out SOSD today, but not much YYBing's been happening.

AgJu Posted June 29, 2019 Share Posted June 29, 2019 As far as quad-maxxing.....i dunno how it did it. it was five years ago, during Summer, i didn't have school or a job and Terror Mountain was juuuuuuuust starting to gain traction in these things so i felt compelled to go go go and had all the time in the world to do it. I guess i just felt like challenging myself to see if i could and once i did it one day, i had to do it the next and the next and the next, and then when i found out about that Absolute Corruption page that tracks everyone's overall performance and being able to see that i was on top, i then felt compelled to KEEP that. The max number of games you can send in a day has dropped in the following years....i think back then you could send a max of like 1200 games of SOSD, for example, while this year its 400? There's also a minimum score to hit, so you don't have to play the games ALLLLL the way through, which REALLY helps with Slushie Slinger....i'll post a pic after this and it shows i did FOUR-THOUSAND games of SS; definitely would not be able to do that playing all the way through. Anyway, for SOSD, you only need to score one goal for it to count towards your rank, so even with 1200 games a day, that can be taken care of the quickest, by far. MSN, you just tap the keys til you get about 3000 points, hit space, and send. SS, what you would do is start a game, switch to a different tab to play a handful of games of MSN (or SOSD if you choose) to wait for the initial wave of customers to build up, then fire off those slushies til you hit the min of 285+ and send your score. YYB was the only game i would play all the way through each time cuz it carries the most weight (or so i feel) and i liked the bonus of seeing how many goals i could score. All in all, it took me about 12-14 hours a day, for like 30+ days, which is why, even with the lowered max over the years, its not something i plan on doing again anytime soon (to say the least). The trophy is on my user lookup (AC IX), but here are pics i took just to capture the "glory" lol P.S. I think Neopets is being poopy again today. Anyone have yesterday's results?

MysteryAF Posted June 29, 2019 Share Posted June 29, 2019 I've tried Yooyuball and Shootout Showdown, both of them show this when I send a score: I think I won't play any more during the AC anyway, I was getting burnt out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can do it Scoobs!!! *cheers you on* I've have trouble all through the Cup with opponent players that I confused with mine, lol. Playing your team and Darigan was the easiest really because they're easier to indentify. Roo Island's red Lupe KEPT catching me out today because their sprite's more of a pinkish shade and I kept thinking they were Timu and wondering why they weren't responding when I tried getting them to grab the ball.

The "Rules" state: Quote Results will be announced on the 3rd of July and Trophies and Ranks will be awarded based on your performance. So, until July 3rd, we will have to wait. Then again, it could be July 5th or later, as the Shop seems to "glitch" when first opened, and they have to close it, to fix it.
