JN's running a player-of-the-year bracket. My top two faves are Mirsha and Tandrak but I'm curious about y'all's.
(Also, hit rank 13 yesterday. Missed a few games of ShoSho 'cause I ran out of time but that's fine, I'll make it up with some additional MSN or SlSl.)

Prytariel is an obvious choice for me, and I've also grown fond of Fenny Vail for her cute and plucky design <3 She's the one I'll probably be rooting for the most for as long as I can haha.
Did all my voting for Round 1 and I feel bad for the lack of Terror Mountain players I voted for outside of Prytariel, like I've betrayed my team or something lol. My loyalties lie more with the Terror Mountain itself.

What, why is Vonde Cayle not on the list.
Voted for my team (Lost Desert), and then after that I just stuck to the match-ups where the players stood out to me. Like "ooh, they were a good goalie" and "that defender gave me a hard time, props to them." Meridell and Kreludor got several of my votes for that reason.
Gonna save the rest of my votes, I think. It's been a while since I've played, so I'm not super familiar with all the players, and I honestly don't care enough to look them up. Especially since player profiles have become geared more towards stats than being.

I didn't even consider stats when voting, I'm vain and voted purely on how much I liked their character designs xD

Hoo boy, now I probably should have looked up bios as I do prefer characters with some lore behind them, but I decided even if they had lore it'll likely be light so either voted for the ones who I knew has some or just general favorites. For now I'll save most of my thoughts for now (even though you can see the votes, I'll wait till the results are actually announced), though obviously I voted for all the Meridell players (Ethel and Windelle are looking good, but sadly Ilsa got paired against Fonnet, Kreludor's Captain, so she's sadly out; honestly I think I already see one complaint I have with this format: they should have separated everyone into 4 categories: Goalies, Defenders, Forwards, and Captains).

The voting looks to be going predictably, I imagine most people are just voting for their own teams or whoever looks coolest.
I HOPE Boortz pulls out the win over Dahy. He's cool and all for a rookie but the golden gal has put in the blood, sweat, and tears. Dare I say she's traveled down that road and back again... her heart is true, she's a pal and a confidant.

Fenny Vail IS super cute, there's something unsettling about her design though. I mean that in a good way, her design strikes me as being a spooky little trickster of some sort lol.

Rank 18! After what they pulled with the multiple stamps last year, I hope to be rolling in points this time. I still don't have the Mirsha Grelinek stamp after it shot up in price, don't wanna make that mistake again. doctortomoe Are you clicking "change team", then clicking the player you want to swap out and hitting "drop player" before trying to choose a new one? Something about the fiddliness of that process manages to confuse me every year, but I might be the only one with that problem

I'm getting really close to hitting all-star at this point, but I just got a "OOPS!! Failed Captcha validation." message and I'm scared to touch anything >.>; It's only the second one I've seen the entire cup but I do NOT wanna get flagged again. Last year was agonizing towards the end because I was playing like crazy and successfully sending maybe 50% of my scores.

Last year was agonizing towards the end because I was playing like crazy and successfully sending maybe 50% of my scores. That's weird. :x I haven't had any failed Captchas this year, and I just got to all-star yesterday. I don't think it has anything to do with play frequency. Try checking your Internet connection maybe. From what I've heard, the validation can fail if your connection switches to a different IP in the middle of a game. Some people have had success using a different connection method (e.g. mobile data instead of wi-fi) when they ran into Captcha validation issues.
