Secre Posted June 15, 2021 Share Posted June 15, 2021 I've just hit Rank 17 so I'm so far ahead of myself from last year it's untrue! Unfortunately, we're on holiday from this afternoon, so my progress may stall until next week. I aim to at least max SOSD every day if I can't get to YYB though!

jellysundae Posted June 15, 2021 Share Posted June 15, 2021 Squeaked into Rank 10 this morning I'm basically stuck with just YYB this year, just can't get on with SOSD, get too much rage too quickly. But I'm finding YYB easier than normal, so hopefully I'll still be able to make it to AS, The last two years I got just into rank 21, I'm hopefully on track for that this year too. Your GPG is impressive @Secre! Secre 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your GPG is impressive @Secre! I've actually managed to play all of the mini games!! The lack of CAPCHA's has made me willing to play MSN and Maraqua went on a Slushie Slinger madness run yesterday to try and sweep the side games as we knew we'd lose YYB. This is the first year I've actually been active on the boards and it's surprisingly nice to actually be part of a team. It has pushed me to work on my side games as well as I have access to the teams daily strategy against each team. Thanks! It's helped by the now random Darigan yooyu. Last year, I left any game to run that involved a Darigan. This year there's a chance of shooting it straight, so I play it and hope for the best. Good luck on All Star! I don't think I'll hit Double AS as I'm going to be limited this next week, but I should hopefully beat my last years points! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anxious Zombie Posted June 15, 2021 Share Posted June 15, 2021 Rank 10 right now, which is already better than three years ago at rank 7. Thinking of doing some grinding on Thursday. jellysundae and Secre 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tedhaun Posted June 16, 2021 Share Posted June 16, 2021 I'm just going to leave this right here (spoilered just because): Spoiler I've had All Star since this past Friday. As of this post, I'm currently Rank 27 going on to 28 as per AbsoluteCorruption's Petpage. I ended with a Rank 42 last year. Also wishing the best of luck to everyone else here on their quest to get All Star or whichever rank they're after.

Anxious Zombie Posted June 16, 2021 Share Posted June 16, 2021 It blows my mind that you can just keep ranking when you get to All Star. Probably because I've never gotten All Star. Not even on my OLD account that I lost due to having it as a child than forgetting absolutely everything about it (We're talking fifth or sixth ever AC). I'll be glad if I hit 20, but might go for higher. I'm already eyeing you unannounced paint brush prize and AC stamp! Secre 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wildbreeze Posted June 17, 2021 Share Posted June 17, 2021 Rank 8. I'm a little behind what I've been aiming for this year because I was too wiped out yesterday to do more than curl up in bed. But I'll make it to 9 today. I don't know if I'll reach All-Star this year but I'm gonna try! Secre 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Secre Posted June 18, 2021 Author Share Posted June 18, 2021 And I hit All Star yesterday evening!!

I've been reliant on my phone these last few days and I can't play YYB or MSN on that. YYB because Apple and full screen don't work and it won't even load, MSN because my screen just isn't responsive enough to get even the lowest minimum score. I've managed 700-1000 at best on it...

How do you keep ranking after All Star? Do you go from the level 1 stats (16YYB) or keep at the gold tier stats (56 YYB I think) per rank? Is there a webpage or anything?

The requirements for ranks after single All Star will get tougher and increase every 4 ranks (for example, the amount of required YYB games will go up to around 8-10 every 4 ranks) after you get Rank 20. I know most Altador Cup-savvy Neopians already know it, but here's AbsoluteCorruption's Petpage that I forgot to link to where you can keep track of the requirements to your next rank plus a leaderboard with the overall top 10 AC players and top 5 AC players for every individual team. It has target ranks from the usual first 20 ranks and All Stars from single to quadruple, it sadly doesn't have individual target ranks after 20 to choose from.

For some reason the board isn't allowing me to add reactions today which is strange, but thank you for the link! So thank you for the link! I was looking to see if TDN or JN had something similar but JN definitely only goes to rank 20 and I couldn't find TDN's rank calculator, only the page where they show all the ranks. I will have to have a look later to see where I am and what rank I might aim for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd like him to either sue, file a lawsuit or issue a subpoena on those Jelly Chia goalies for breaking your elbow. Seriously, I among others here at TDN would like to wish you a fast recovery and back at your job real soon! gwendolyndolyn and jellysundae 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
