Secre Posted June 9, 2021 Posted June 9, 2021 Well, I've gone to last years thread and discarded the really poor players. Hopefully it pays off! hrtbrk 1 Quote
Duma Posted June 9, 2021 Posted June 9, 2021 I did the same, checked last year's results and picked my team: Secre 1 Quote
Wildbreeze Posted June 9, 2021 Posted June 9, 2021 I just pick the ones I vibe with the most, which happened to be exactly the same as Secre's choices, including star player. Secre 1 Quote
Angeló Posted June 9, 2021 Posted June 9, 2021 This is the team I chose for Week 1 I usually don't get the Star Player but I'm hoping for the best this time Secre 1 Quote
Aquamentis12 Posted June 10, 2021 Posted June 10, 2021 I always save a screenshot at the end of the staff tourney for the following year so I can see all rounds I chose and who did well, and stunk out loud. My week 1 line-up turned out to be the same as my Week 1 line-up for last year. I always choose Ehlo Froyo as my Goalie though, Go Maraqua! lol Fortunately, she's a really decent goalie! I'm HOPING to select the right Star player, hasn't happened yet though. lol Good luck everyone with your picks! Secre 1 Quote
jellysundae Posted June 10, 2021 Posted June 10, 2021 *** You selected kikocat as star player *** "I don't leave the house often, but when I do, it’s to take out the trash" "I need a haircut" "We will create our own victory and draw inspiration from our championship!" "- and you can quote me on that!" - van Doodle "Hey...you know what? If you can’t take the cold, bring a sweater whomp whomp*;*" I'm having faith in Ehlo Froyo, she let us down last year and I switched to Binary Supagoo for the last round, but I feel she'll be on form this year. I notice no-one seems keen to give Scrappy the time of day after her being so rubbish last year. x'D I have ZERO faith in getting even one star player guess correct, the catagories tend to be too esoteric now. *awards Kakarot "player least likely to be chosen"*, which no-one wins, because no-one chooses him...

jellysundae Posted June 10, 2021 Posted June 10, 2021 Part of me is also like: no way should we be picking gutterfoot OR van Doodle, they have conversion work to be getting on with!!! I wonder how many games they actually have to play. It's possibly something you could figure out from the scores, possibly... but not if you're me. xD Let's see if glitches are fixed faster after TNT gets to experience them.

jellysundae Posted June 16, 2021 Posted June 16, 2021 Oh man, Ehlo's letting us down again Scrappy's back on form though, and Agog good from the get go this time! I should have given her a chance first off. *switches to Agog and Binary Supagoo; not ready to let scrappy back into the fold just yet, gotta think about this. Secre and Duma 2 Quote
Secre Posted June 18, 2021 Author Posted June 18, 2021 @jellysundae So I had a very similar team to you, but with a different goalie. I've swapped out Kikocat and Senor Malo as my weakest links. Thanks for the best team snip. I've taken a chance on Scrappy and Agog! jellysundae 1 Quote
MariaWB Posted June 18, 2021 Posted June 18, 2021 So here's how I did this week. I'm pretty happy Secre 1 Quote
Sciurus carolinensis Posted June 23, 2021 Posted June 23, 2021 Got this neomail from TNT today. Hello squirrely520, Congratulations, you guessed it right! Here is your prize for correctly predicting Clammyhand as the Star Player of Round 2. No use for it, so I'm selling it. edit- No idea what price to ask for. Quote
Duma Posted June 23, 2021 Posted June 23, 2021 Not bad this round. Still going to keep Kikocat in my team for next round though. I have faith in her! Quote
jellysundae Posted June 23, 2021 Posted June 23, 2021 I've changed to the best team, no loyalty from me this year. x'D Quote
Angeló Posted June 23, 2021 Posted June 23, 2021 I only dropped Scrappy in favor of Clammyhand But she didn't do so bad really And why is Username Redacted Plushie going for 25 Mil !!?!?!?!?!! Quote
Secre Posted June 24, 2021 Author Posted June 24, 2021 Yeah, I went with the best team from last time as well. And @Angeló, well there's two plushies that I am almost certainly never ever ever getting for my gallery! Quote

It was going for 700K when it was released last week , a few people are trying to monopolize the market .. I'm sure the price will drop - a lot - They may even release them in the Prize Shop later Secre 1 Quote
jellysundae Posted June 24, 2021 Posted June 24, 2021 Oh gosh yes, they did that with the prize shop before, didn't they. Can just imagine the swearing that created xDDD Me 'n' @Angeló, team pick buddies! I'm glad Gutterfoot's not had her art redone just because the pink's gone from her hair now; because rockin' pink hair's as good a reason as any to be picked for star player, I do believe Secre and Angeló 1 1 Quote

jellysundae Posted June 25, 2021 Posted June 25, 2021 I find myself again wondering how the staff tournament actually works... if they genuinely are playing, it must be an entirely different game? I mean YYB, yeah, but one where each player is individually controllable? We certainly can't play solely as our goalkeeper and so on... Maybe, ooh, maybe... the staff tourney idea sprang from gameplay testing? If they have a means to lock user control to one particular player, which they surely do... Imagine the fun original TNT must have had with this... live-action YYB in the office, with every player under someone's control. It would have been utter chaos and carnage. People outside on the street would think the World Cup was going on in the Neopets' offices or something. x'D Angeló and Secre 2 Quote

I strongly suspect they are playing the same game as us though. I find it highly suspicious that the first big 'fix' (ie the one that broke everything) came after their staff tournament started... I wish they could 'lock' user control to one player though. I'd far prefer to run one single attacker than deal with player switching! Quote
Secre Posted July 7, 2021 Author Posted July 7, 2021 Not bad! Not bad at all! Pity Senor Malo didn't pull his socks up mind you! And no star players at all. Quote
Angeló Posted July 7, 2021 Posted July 7, 2021 My final round was the best , despite Agog getting defeated by Miss Rainbow (but not by much) All the others did exceptionally well Omg I chose him ... but I changed my mind and went back to Gutterfoot Star Player Aesop Secre 1 Quote

Duma Posted July 7, 2021 Posted July 7, 2021 Fun Fact! Both Binary Supagoo as EhLo FrOyo have a score of 2760, so it doesn't even matter if you picked the other one! My overall Total isn't too bad. Round 1 I could have done better and Kikocat kinda let us down this year. (Also posting the screenshots with the idea to have it as a reference for next year, esp with the two new surprising high scores of Aesop and Miss Rainbow) Secre 1 Quote
