Heyy, youre not the only Virtupets fans out there. I just dont post very often
Anyways, while playing the game, I noticed that the hover trick wont work for me anymore. Its really annoying, because now the other team keeps getting to the ball before I do.

hover trick? sorry just saying we;re few in number
Thu Jun 08, 2006 12:37 am
Yep, the hover trick. Where you could place your cursor over the position of a player so that when the Yooyu intro ended, your player would already be highlighted and moving towards the ball. Now it wont work, so I lose precious milliseconds, giving the practice team the advantage. Its cut my scores from 9-0 to 4-1 or so. But at least Im still winning.
I knew what you meant, by the way. I was just being difficult for the sake of being difficult

I am seriously tempted to get one though, because it's so geeky I love it
... it's just too bad they cost money
I think I'll do a bit of over time @ work and buy some! -G££K- With that and all the real life Football, GAA and Rugby shirts I've been buying lately, I could open a sports museum. Spring fever eh! xD
Whhooo more Virtupets supporters, you are here! Like I said, allways too busy practising to chat. Thats what we like to see lads! -cheers-

Shoot. Now that the hover trick's gone, I never get the ball first. 
Lucky for me, Jelly team's easy to steal from.
Edit: I can't get any higher than 9 wins, even though I've won 10-11 games.
Edit 2:
I would so buy that if it weren't so utterly geeky.

Don't think it gets more difficult the more you submit.
Didn't need to restart the flash to submit more scores.

Is it possible to change teams. I'm having some doubts over my choice of team at the moment... 
Thu Jun 08, 2006 1:51 am
Ok, um, disregard that last post about not having to submit to get your scores to count. I think. It's not seeming to do it anymore. Which still leaves the question of how I got those three I never sent. Possibly one of my borthers was playing in me accidentally or something. Or I sent and forgot about it because my memory works like that sometimes.
On a separate note, this has probably already been stated/deemed so obvious it didn't need to be stated, but in case not, here it is:
To shoot, it works really well if you click in the inner most box. This way it still registers the click but you can aim really well and still get it in most of the time. Unless you're like me and have sporadic aiming skills, causing you to shoot sideways some of the time. Or it's one of those cursed dark faerie yooyus. Or mutant for that matter.
Oh, and on a completely different matter, I'd just like to say that my record for scoring is 2 seconds. At very most 3. Yes, you heard me correctly. As it started the next play the timer was just switching to 2:57
Oh, and one more thing. For those of you complaining that the goalie should be on auto pilot- have a little comfort. If you unselect the goalie, it'll move back to the center of the goal. Very useful for if you've dragged the goalie off somewhere. ALthough not useful when you're trying to lose to test a theory.

More than nine possible:
Wins Losses Ties
17 0 0
Kreludor's tackling ability has gone from great to completely awful. TNT has made changes. Also, they get bullied around lot more. Getting past defenders with ice ball is harder. Someone please confirm.
Highlighting has been changed to be significantly faster. For me this leads to more mistakes, with me accidentally highlighting an off-the-ball player.

I'm practicing with Kreludor right now and don't notice any difference, it's just as strong as before and perfectly easy to score over and over.
*sighs* That glitch not letting you switch teams is affecting me again, I wanted to get in more practice with various teams before settling.

Oops, I forgot to say, I'm only testing against teams that aren't the jelly practise team.
It's almost impossible to tackle from anything other than head-on now, and I'm *always* having to switch back a player when I miss a shot and lose possession, whereas before I would sometimes chase (ice ball, at least).
Use this link to play Kreludor v whatever team 7 is.

I'll like to know the names of all souvenirs now known about, if anybody can give me a list...
On something else, I'm really upset the hovering trick does not work anymore, I was the one to first post about it, and it was one of the basis of my strategie, so I have to start over practicing to steel the ball instead of starting with it. And the computer is getting better, it's now much more chalenging that it was (well, maybe not MUCH more, but still, the are better than they were) And I think we are more affected by the slowing effect of the ice ball than before, I really starts to hate that ball.

Yeah, I've played all teams against eachother, gives a much better feel for the game. Just played that Kreludor/Krawk Island and beat the pirates.
