Okay... so that's... times 4... carry the 7... ah! Given your chosen team's performance, you've earned yourself 3900 Neopoints!

I kept my same team as last week, and had Kikocat as star player - which she won!

Looks like a lot of them did worse this week! DJ Skellington was 4th best (but three of them were within 70 points of each other. van Doodle actually came in 2nd (I think - JN is still missing data for Karakot). Scrappy was a disappointment, at almost half her previous week's score!

Debating what to do for this next week, so we'll see. Who knows?

I've maxed out on SOSD every day (except apparently one, where I was one short of maxing out, so my oddball number of points is now one off. Oh, well.). With a few extra SS games I've played, I've hit Rank 16. Whew.

Should've dropped Scrappy last round. Definitely traded her out for van Doodle, and swapped out DJ Skellington for Gutterfoot. I put van Doodle down as the star player. I think he deserves it, for how much he's improved.

Keeping my team from last time because Malo was only a few points behind, and he was much higher the first two rounds (he was the only non-top scorer this time). I actually changed my star player from kikocat to ehlo froyo the week kikocat won. I assume they can't win again, so I went with Van Doodle as my current star. *fingers crossed I get at least one*

I hit rank 18 today. I should make AS before Saturday, but I won't be able to play much the next 3 days, which is disappointing since my team is in contention for the Cup. I'm focusing on the max points for the team in the time I have (which is inversely proportional to the max prize points in that time, of course... funny how that works!)

Nice job, Siniri!

I swapped out my lowest two performers and added Gutterfoot and Van Doodle. Gutterfoot for Star. Why not?

Because they literally just won star player, and TNT has never repeated star player within a Cup before. But you do you. ;)

Well, how 'bout that... Good reason. I am clearly not paying enough attention... changing now.

Well, I hit All-Star today only 1/4 of the way through my SOSD. I've maxed out on that (but stopped at 20 rather than 21) and did 50 games of SS (because I like SS) over the course of the event, so I'm slightly over All-Star. Kinda glad to be done, actually. I thought it would help keep my mind off things this year, but it turned into just another burden. Probably should've dropped it, but my completionist tendencies kicked in and yeah. Finished up anyways.

ETA: Okay... so that's... times 4... carry the 7... ah! Given your chosen team's performance, you've earned yourself 5145 Neopoints!
Van doodle was the Star Player (Guessed right!). I like the blurb about him:
Despite a rough season for the team, Tyrannia fans can take pride in their newest champion, van Doodle. Thanks to a crowdsourced strategy and non-stop practice, he's rapidly risen to out-compete some long-standing fan favourites.

Fun Fact: Most Dedicated Challenger

Crowdsourced indeed, LOL. Also, he seems to be a decent guy, because he's thanking people on the boards for the tips.

Overall total for Staff Tourney points: 34,974

Ditto on the Van Doodle :)

I slipped in round 3 and ended up with a grand total of 34,139. Round 4 was definitely the best for me.

Same results for the final round. Glad Van Doodle won.

36,661 total for the staff tourney. I finished at rank ~22.6. I just didn't have a lot of time to play this year. Considering I'd gone to at least 15 protests over the course of the AC (I lost count), which ate into the time I was supposed to be playing, just making AS was an accomplishment this year!

I could have gotten a few more prize points, but my team was in contention for first, so I sacrificed personal points for team points by playing the slowest games some during finals.

I achieved a stellar Rank 0 this year with my overwhelming *cough* 3 YYB wins!! Wahooo!

Sure, I also had 1 SS, 3 MSN and 3 SOS wins, too.

Prize shops are open. Fun stuff. I'll decide later what to get (aside from at least one of the stamps).

AC XV Prize Shop
Staff Tournament Prize Shop (At the bottom of the page)

Trophies are also out. It finished up a row for my site event trophies. Woot!

Bumping an old thread and double posting...but the attention is needed!

News 7th May wrote:Heads up Neopians, the Altador Cup prize shop will be closing soon in preparation of this year's Altador Cup. So make sure to use any unredeemed points to pick up your favourite Altador Cup XV prizes and Staff Tournament prizes before the prize shop closes on May 13th!


Just a heads up. I guess I'd better actually spend my points. I hadn't even collected the free dye potion!

ETA: Spent all my points in both shops. Whew. Done with that! Ended up with 24 rock companions. Go figure.

Thanks Pickles. I would have lost my 34,139 Staff tourney points!

Wow, glad I checked in today! (I need to gain access to PPT on my new phone. I got locked out because I entered my PW wrong or something... even though I'm 99.99% sure I entered it correctly. Anyway, since Adblock Plus and Neopets continue to be problematic on my PC, I've mostly been mobile-only and have been going days without turning on the PC. Today I had to fax a health insurance appeal, so I needed the computer.)
