Why do I always start the new topics?
I've hardly been playing much this year. I do love the new games though and will probably be playing alot from next week. I really don't care about the sheilds but it'll take along time ot get there with out playing Yooyuball. Oh well.

From the last thread:Quote:
*mouth drops* How much did you play?! :D
If I remember right, last year I tried to play at least 50 games a round. I think I played 3 rounds, then got cut off because we moved. So if my memory is right (and it's not usually), I already played more than last year.

Okies. Thanks.
The darn scores are still under review. I know it's Father's Day, but I want to know what became of RI vs. KI!

It is rather unfair, surprise surprise this is TNT afterall, that unless you play Yooyu Ball your rank doesn't seem to want to move.
I can't play the bloody thing!

Maybe Gooly. But the person that posted that link to explain how to figure out the ranks, gave more credit for Make Some Noise than Yooyuball. So, you never know. I can try to help you learn to pay YYB if you want. I'm fairly good at it. 
I want to know how my team did against KI!! I'm dying here!!  My rank did go up though, I'm 5 now.

Well, I read through it, but I got nuffin. I'm still a beginner and I've played over 150 games. I dunno.
I thank you for the offer, but I rarely have time for noise making it seems. Maybe I'll take you up on it soon...

maybe it has to do with your goals scored and losses? all it takes is practice practice practice.

I believe to move up a rank from beginner to rank 1 you must have 50 wins in YYB. I just had my rank change yesterday after reaching 50 wins. And I believe ranks continue to go up by 50 wins until a certain point.

Cool, thanks. I'm quite surprised that losses don't seem to help, whereas a 1-0 victory would.
Hmm... maybe I can level up tonight. I've been really busy through last week (mostly awesome concerts) and I'm kinda sick of being stuck at level 6. I think I'll watch The Godfather Part II some more while I play; two boring things done simultaneously make one decent evening. ;-P
Yesterday, I saw screenshots on someone's petpage of a 12-0 win. On my second game after that, I scored my first 10-0. Interestingly, I saw 10 on the in-game scoreboards but only 09 on the result page. I counted all my goals yesterday and the number today shows that ten were counted, not nine. But the petpage screenshots showed 12 on both the in-game and the results scoreboards. Maybe 11 and 12 register on it properly.

The Godfather... yes... a day of my life I'd like back please. My gods.
I've been lazy lately with my screaming... mainly cause I'm more concerned with doing it in real life to someone...

My attention span is way to short for this. I'd love to get higher scores, but I can't play more than a few games on end, and I just... wait, what was I saying?

I've been really slacking too, getting around 5 wins daily for the past few days. Except yesterday I forced myself to play and got 21. I'm just getting SO sick of yooyuball! I'll play a few games, take a tiny break, then forget I was playing YYB, and go a while without playing. I've been packing for our move too, so that cut my playing time way down. We'd better get great prizes for all this suffering. 
I'm just still thrilled that Roo Island beat Krawk Island in Yooyuball the other day.

*pokes tongue out at Nynaeve* Fluke I tell ya! 
I was always quite lazy with my supporting of my team, since I'm not very good at any of the games, but I've hit an all time low. Now I'm playing solely for the shield. I calculated I needed about 300 games of Noise on top of what I already had from the Slushie game, so I'm just opening it up, tapping a few times and pressing space. I've sent about 50+ scores a day, all of a couple hundred, and am nearly at the level 1 shield! Woohoo!
I think TNT need to learn a valuable lesson from this - we're not machines! We cannot just play the same games over and over for weeks! No matter of team support is gonna bring us to that level of brain-death!

I have to do 9 more YYB games to get to the Level 1 rank... I can't seem to motivate myself enough to do so.... 
I'm not touching the other two games... YYB is bad enough but to have to play the other ones more for the same amount of points... No thanks.

Sorry if this has been asked, but how many games of Make Some Noise has to be played to get the shield above beginner? I've played close to 100 games scoring between 6000 and 8000 per game and I'm still sitting on the ugly beginner shield

According to this user (Clickie) and doing the maths (hopefully correctly), you would need to play approximately 750 MSN games to go from the start of Beginner to Level 1... So you've got about another 650 to go... Good luck... Hope you don't have much of a life outside of Neopets. 
(Having a look at how many MSN games are needed, it makes my 8 more games of YYB needed before I reach Level 1 look way better)

750 MSN games just to get one shield? The ratio shouldn't be that high... it makes it next to impossible for those who can't play yooyooball for jack to get any rank.

Wow .. I've only been playing 5-10 games a round, if I play at all. How many wins in YYB does it take to move up from Beginner rank? Or is it based on goals scored?
