I think TNT will announce the winners with the news.

Will I get a prize for all my effort?
A: If you participate in Altador Cup in any way, you will receive points that you can exchange for prizes in the Prize Shop, which opens at the end of the tournament on July 21st. Of course, the more you participate, the more points you'll earn.

And a graph of how I currently feel.

XD I can totally get behind that graph. ^.~
My scores:

Bet you can't tell by that that I have some OCD tendencies. ^.~ I was very sad, though, that I couldn't get that one last save by Clutch to make his contribution a multiple of 5. T.T

I don't plan to do better next year, though. This was pretty much it for Altador Cups getting played with effort, so I worked to get that All-Star rank. Next year, I think my uppermost goal will be rank 12 (so I can have the bronze shield and blue gem ^.^).

Heh, I'd seen that, but I'm wondering if they'll stick to it or not. I'm sure hopin' though!!!

Aww, it really is completely over. Real life intervened and I missed the finals. I thought that maaaaaaybe it wasn't over quiiiiite yet and I could still play some, but that was not the case. Ah well, maybe things will work out better next year.

I hope they stick to it too. Although, I'm so used to waiting for prizes for plots and stuff, I just naturally assume it'll be about a month. I completely forgot about them saying that.

Congrats to the Roos! You guys did great. Now, if only Shenkuu can pull it out next year!

Personally, I hate to say this, I'm glad I didn't pressure myself to play a lot this year. The prizes kinda... um... yeah. Not so much of a fan. Maybe my mind will change later.

Poor Krawk island. Not even a Jersey! *sniff*
I already got several Fire Yooyus.

26,705 points to spend on NOTHING

RI didn't even get anything Roo related as prizes and we're getting bashed by those pb hungry people... makes me mad. These prizes are pre-done since there's nothing RI about them. HW gets two specific prizes and DC gets one. I'm pretty sure it would have been the same even if KI won

*cartwheel* LD placed!!! Only bronze, but it feels like gold! And Roo won, I was ROOting (oh god) for yall for first.

And FL ended up not last! Happy results all around~

The prizes are... uh... lacking. A bunch of frisbees, a bunch of slushies, a few toys, and jerseys from winners past? Without anything commemorating the Roos? Also the obligatory books and Yooyu... :/

My mom got a nice slap in the face though, she's not the greatest at games that rely on time, especially with arrow keys (but kicks butt at Faerie Bubbles!). Anyway, she played 5 games of MSN and 1 of SS but didn't get high enough for them to "register" as points. So she went to the prize shop and got turned away. Not even a "participant" trophy, despite joining a team on the first day and playing the games to the best of her ability. How dumb.

I have a grand total of 662 points

I have just enough to purchase one of each slushie and the flying disc for my team.

eilu · **Posted:** Tue Jul 22, 2008 1:05 am

the prizes are pretty ho-hum this year. Don't even want the top prize if I could've afforded it (I am sick of yooyus :lol:

) Maybe I'll get the shirts because they'll likely inflate- HW and DC are popular themes/colors, cup or no cup.

They should've opened the souvenir shop and sell the discs and slushies in them for np, and put in more original prizes. I miss the humor of the crazy techo action figure and the clockwork yooyu toy. Honestly, I wouldn't mind waiting six weeks or so for a prize shop with fun prizes, over one that opens immediately with generic prizes.

The prizes may be absolutely pathetic, but at least we got a pretty trophy, so I'm happy. After all, the contents of the prize shop can be eventually owned by anyone, but the trophy will always be unique to me.

I do feel a bit sorry for Shenkuu though. You beat us in 2 of the 3 games and we still came out on top.

Even some humorous prizes would have been better. The shop looks bare compared to last year. The AC is looking to become a kind of crappy filler plot in the future. )=

I think it's because they released the prize shop so early this year that the prizes are sub-par.

Faster = Less Quality prizes
