Yeah tnt wants us to pay to play but wont pay us for playing (crap prizes)

[quote=bsmith97][quote=Nicann4]Welcome to the Altador Cup IV Prize Shop. Your Point Balance of 24,058 is available for spending now![/quote] Nicole with your points I had to run over and see how many games you played...you sure played a lot of Yooyu ball:) Extremely disappointed in the prizes. You had to play a crazy amount of games to get that top prize. And then the top prize is an item you can buy. Who came up with that brilliant idea? What happened to the top prize being a unique item. Even the Yooyu's are horrible. I think Yooyu's from the game would have been better than red, yellow, blue or green. How about a nice Faerie Yooyu? Glad this year I didn't spend a lot of time doing it. Tried to get in 5 games a day. Happy that it panned out that way.[/quote] And I didn't even have enough for the paintbrush *lol*

[quote=playful]I got 1,834 points to spend, but I didn't play any Yooyu ball, and I only got to rank 3. Turns out the side games give relatively more points. Who knew? :P[/quote] Well I got rank 1, with mostly YYB, and got about 600 points, so it doesnt really seem that side games give out more points than YYB?

I remember getting 2 stamps, a yooyu and a decent weapon from AC1 and I think I was rank 4. I couldn't afford what I wanted in AC2 so I played more last year and this year only to get the crap prizes. But I remember AC2 I could've even gotten a yooyu or 2 stamps at rank 11, but not both. I'm still annoyed at myself for not getting that Darigan Yooyu since it inflated like crazy before I had a chance to buy one. And I was really hoping for at least a new stamp this year, but instead there's nothing I want to buy with my 30k points.

I am happy I didn't waste any time playing this year. I still can't believe that the top prize is buyable... hmm...
