But now... once this starts, if I score a couple points and still lose the game, if I send that score, will it give me a few points and help out my team? Or do losses hurt? Or do only wins count?

Am I the only one who finds the game easy? And to think I'm usually bad at games involving speed.
My strategy is simple: wait for the other team to get the ball and pass, then select the closest player, run towards the opponent with the ball, steal the ball and shoot while most of the opponents are not defending.

Anyway, the reason I didn't want to choose Shenkuu is that it seems to be overly popular. I'd rather go with Roo Island, it should (hopefully) have less but more dedicated players.

Someone had said a staff member posted on the boards about the cup and said if you lose and don't send your score it will still be counted as a loss :\. Any comments or clarification? ~fruit_loop_2
Egads, no. We are certain no staff member said this. Probably just some evil ploy by some mean users. Grr. Just do your best and submit EVERY game you can regardless of the outcome. Every bit of effort counts!

I have seen this many times on the boards: players from opposing teams making side accounts, joining the rival team & losing to lessen the score & have the other team win. Is this reportable? ~sfdscheer
Not only is it reportable, it's a freezable offense. No one may participate in the Altador Cup on any other account aside from their main. Sending in bad scores for the other team is not only poor sportsmanship, but is also downright disgraceful to the team they should be representing with honour. (And don't worry, they're really only hurting themselves.)

It's really unfair that the Haunted Woods has so many users who play for them. I mean, we loyal Darigan Citadel players are hopelessly outnumbered. There's no way we can even attempt to win. I should know. I used to be Brightvale, and I flattened the Woods seven times in a row. (Please omit my username. Thank you :-) ~anonymous
We're not sure why you think you're so outnumbered, but don't worry! As stated on the previous round pages, it doesn't matter if another team has more members:

"The Altador Cup Committee bases scores on win/loss/tie record, point scores, individual performance, and a weighted average based on team membership. Translation: A team with more players has no advantage over a team with fewer players!"

In other words, don't give up or feel you are at a disadvantage! Just do your best and have fun! ^_^

Well I am going with my Roo Island team. Just like last year.

Anyway, I remember someone posting a link last season which let you have a practice match with any team you wanted.


oh and..go Roo!

Haha, I just practiced against Haunted Woods, and got 0-9 me. I totally forgot how wild they go after you get 9 goals. Has anyone ever scored a 10 or greater?

I managed to score with a Darigan ball o.O
I was in front of the keeper and threw straight at him, and the ball went into the corner. Whew.
