There's a DC board with quite a few players (about 50-60) who are throwing down 50-100 Yooyuball wins and/or 100s of side game scores everyday to bring Darigan to the top tier, you should join us and roll through some games with us. ;)


I should correct myself- I hope the team doesn't get steamrollered by someone else. I would play a lot more, but I have to train and work nearly every day of the week. I play every day, though. :) Just not continuously.

A DC board... on Neopets?

There are lots of team-specific boards in the Neoboards right now, as well as specific ones such as a board for Filipino AC players. =3

I had no idea. xD I'm never on the Neoboards.

And I must say, Haunted Woods' 2x2 configuration is a godsend. Brightvale and Moltara having the same default configuration as DC was driving me nuts because I constantly had to navigate around their forward. Now I can dash between! Hahaha.

I don't drop into the Neoboards often either, but it's nice to see other players who are also on your team...and all the board titles people come up with. XD

It's crazy when it's 3+1 vs. 3+1, isn't it? I always use Meridell's default formation (which is, yes, 3+1), so things can get pretty crowded 'round the center every now and then.

Actually, you don't need to devote too much time to the AC to get a high rank. 1 hour of straight playing can get a very decent rank, and a little less than 2 hours of straight playing can get you All-Star... I have a full time job and a class myself, but I think I can make it this year ;).

That's good to know. :) I should have time this afternoon for a few games and I hope to make Rank 1 (or is it 2?) by tonight.

It's way to early to predict winners - two days into the first round. A lot of dynamics tend to change later in the tourney - Shenkuu, for example, tends to have really bad first weeks, and then powers up; while obviously that's not guaranteed this year, it's a good example of how nothing can be guessed yet.

I think everything will be quite clear after a week.
But yeah, Brightvale is surprising. For the first time, I think brightvale will be in the first half out of the teams

A week is less than a quarter of the round robin sections; I wouldn't expect clarity by then ;) I'd say that things will become clearer a few days into the second round robin, when we see how things have changed between some teams.

Okay, finished playing for the day. Currently have 150 games, 2020 goals (all of them scored by Prytariel still). Hmm, I should really start playing the side games.

You guys have no idea how long I played Yooyu ball last night, with video game music playing :rolleyes:

I also have a great song to play to if I felt all patriotic to my team :>

Well, I just got the achievement which each player has to score 100 goals. That decreased my GPG from 11.05 to below 10.5 :(

Also, @Prytariel, how come you don't play any side games? Shootout showdown takes 7 seconds and you can earn 291 neopoints!

If you looked at the stats of some of their players you wouldn't be surprised by how well they're doing. One of them maxed out both MSN and SoSD and played about 150 games of SS (max means 1201 games of MSN and 1201 games of SoSD in one day)!

I've gone from first to worst. I'm not really used to this losing all the time thing. At least I feel no pressure to actually try so we can get first though.
