Each game is 3 minutes long.
That means you can, theoretically, win 20 games an hour.
To reach Level 20 you need a minimum of 1850 points.
So, with Yooyo ball alone, that is 92 1/2 hours of game time.
There are 16 teams. If we play each team twice,
and then play a single final round, that's 33 games total.
If each round is just one day long, that is 33 days.
That would mean you need to play 2.8 hours a day
to reach the bare minimum for level 20. Ouch.

And today your target'll take you close on fifteen solid hours.

Pickles, kudos to you too for your rank! That's quite a feat. I've just had another look at the shields and set Rank 9 as my target by the end of the Cup - the first rank with a shiny bronze shield rather than a crappy-looking stone one - but that means I'm going to have to clock up 600 wins in my limited spare time, which is 450 more than I currently have. Bye-bye, weekends.

Actually, each game is less than 3 minutes long unless you don't score. Check your timer before the victory scene and the Yooyu reveal, and then check after it. You lose about 8 seconds off the clock, whether you skip the victory scene and Yooyuball reveal or not. So if you take 12 seconds to score a goal, each Yooyuball game takes about 2 minutes, and theoretically you could win 30 games an hour.

Hmm...for my computer, it actually takes more than 3 minutes if I score. Even if I hit the continue sign, the scene spans around 10-15 seconds. [Note that if it's going to be a goal, the timer actually freezes BEFORE the ball goes into the net ]. However, the timer only registers a ~8 second difference. This makes each game a little longer than 3 minutes for me. And that's already discounting the 2 comment scenes, submit result, etc.

You have been awarded 1,000 neopoints. If you qualified for an avatar, that has also been awarded.
Silly nmails, I know it is an automatic response, but I have scored higher and those scores never were checked.

Wait...we can get NP for Make Some Noise? I never seem to get any and average 2-4k.

I'm nowhere near that this year.
I'm happy if I do 10.
