Want to join Team cK this year? Please, please, please... read this entire post if you wish to join our team!

This year we are doing things slightly similar to last year. We will not disclose the team we are joining publicly for a better chance at winning and to make being part of the team an exclusive offer for our awesome contributing members. The less freeloaders, the better. :ntyblob:

We have the biggest Neopets community - which is a huge bonus and privilege for everyone.




How to find out and join our officially supported team?

Submit an application HERE ([Only registered and activated users can see links])with the thread title "Team cK Y9 Application" and if you're eligible, you'll be granted access to our private team forum. Only apply once, and anyone that submits multiple applications (via private messages as well!) will have to be disqualified. We do reserve the right to share the team information with only members we feel are eligible! Don't be discouraged if we don't respond. :teatime:

* Applications should be short and sweet, but feel free to share a little extra if you'd like.

----
How do I qualify?

Answer: Just apply! ([Only registered and activated users can see links]) If you are a newbie AND relatively new to the forum (registration date January 2021 or later), your chances of being eligible are very, very low for obvious reasons.
----

Anyone that leaks our team publicly will be looked down upon, possibly banned, and should realize that shit is not cool. We are just trying to have fun.

Status: Team Determined. Applications are now OPEN...
Topic is open for posting! :popcorntime:



Let's fucking GOOOOO Team cK!!!!

See the screenshot in my spoiler. The image shows you where the forum to apply is located.

I tried all 3 links. The one with 'HERE' , 'Just apply!' and the main thread itself

See the screenshot in my spoiler. The image shows you where the forum to apply is located.

Every time someone clicks on the Application Thread ([Only registered and activated users can see links]) it tells them to read this thread, even after having read this thread.
I think that's pretty much the issue everyone is hitting atm.

Which links back here, and I get that message whether I try to access from the link in this thread or main page.

(I also took a video but it felt like overkill lol)

It linked me around once, but after clicking "Submit an application HERE" in the second link I was fine. It was in a different tab if that helps.

We've enabled thread title editing in the applications forum because some of you clearly didn't read this thread's instructions. If you're genuinely interested in joining, consider clicking "Edit Post", then "Go Advanced" and making some revisions.

I'm getting this when I try to access it

Cybun, you do not have permission to access this page. This could be due to one of several reasons:

Your user account may not have sufficient privileges to access this page. Are you trying to edit someone else's post, access administrative features or some other privileged system?
If you are trying to post, the administrator may have disabled your account, or it may be awaiting activation.

I still play other pet sites, and talk about other stuff too. Plus I don't use a lot of websites in general so the community is stuck with me.

edit: I'm an extreme pokemon nerd and it's another reason for me to stick around.

Did we need to put a lot in the application? Mine have been viewed. Wil we receive a reply? Now I am worried I had to write a big motivation and I did not. I went with exstreamly short and sweet.

I cant believe I am so stressed about this. Lol I read the post a few times i am pretty sure there is nothing special to it

Haha, I did the same thing. I wouldn't stress too much. I put my application in yesterday and still haven't heard anything. They're probably carefully choosing who gets accepted. I'm sure there are a ton of applications to sift through. :)

Bat

Don't fret too much about it. "Application" is something of a misnomer, but it's intended to put you on your guard so that you carefully read and follow the instructions in this thread. Those of you that haven't followed those instructions shouldn't be surprised when you don't receive an invitation. You've been given a chance to make corrections, so I strongly suggest that you do so.

We'll be reviewing all of the applications at the same time, and invitations will go out afterwards.

Peanutface
05-31-2020, 09:55 AM
I have no idea how many people are on this site. It does seem to me that the powers that be would want to accept a lot of us in the group. This way we have more power to influence the team that they pick. Good luck all. Regardless, I will enjoy playing this years cup.

Thanks not at all reassuring. But I read and reread the post so I think I did it right. But at least I know I should not worry now since your reviewing all at the same time.

I don't mean to single you out since there are a few others... but why do you over-complicate this every year Mudboots? Last year, and the years before... Yes, I remember...

Everyone - the first post specifically says "please, please, please read the entire post" for a reason. Because if you don't, you're going to end up posting here or somewhere else asking what to do.

It says "short and sweet", you can't go wrong here. If 140+ members correctly applied, then you're definitely making too much out of this.

If you can't read the entire post (which takes less than a minute), then how can we trust that you'll act in the best interest of our team/community? :S

We have to have this sort of process. We can't just rubber-stamp everyone into the team. Put yourself in our shoes...

We've finished preparing our score sender program for this year's Altador Cup. This time, we'll be assigning our chosen team automatically through our program once you've used it to sign into Neopets. VIP users will be free to play for whichever team they choose. Everybody else will be required to play for our team in order to use our program. If you have already chosen a team that doesn't happen to align with our choice, then you will need to purchase VIP. We will be conducting day-one testing tomorrow before our program goes live, and will be responding to your applications soon after.

Thank you for your patience, and stay tuned for more updates!

We're trying to avoid drawing retaliation from competing cults communities this time around, so we won't be announcing our team of choice. Obviously it'll get out eventually, but we won't be discussing it during our initial roll out.

Since JS put the the beta test on my Neopets account I can no longer use Majin SS. Will the SS for the Altador Cup games be different than the current Majin SS?

So if we don't use the program, we can't be on the team? *confused*

I think there was a misunderstanding here.

You aren't required to use the program if you want to be on the same team.

We aren't going to announce the team just yet. But you'll know who we are supporting (if you make the team).

No worries, the AC SS will work and MAJIN is expecting an update soon.

Just saying ~ there's something in the cookie file that sets the *cough* themechoice *cough* and if you set that appropriately to what you use on the Neo website, then Majin SS will work.

My grandkids think I�m special, I have been on Neopets 20 years and still have my original account. I have played 14 AC Cups with my �grandies�. I found Ck five years ago looking for help. I love being a member of our community.

It's so amazing that you're on neopets and even more badass that you're part of this community

and a lifetime cK VIP


Wish my grandma was just as cool!!

I believe we can still join 1-2 days after the AC starts.

TNT will say something when the registration is about to be closed!

Will the missed 1-2 days be a disadvantage, or through the course of AC it won't be that much of a big deal?

Altador Cup FAQ ([Only registered and activated users can see links]) says join before June 4th so we can still join after the first match tomorrow. :)

aaronsd probably just on the points earned.
You could have 2k+ points for the prize shop in those days you missed.

Edit: Should include the Altador Cup Rules ([Only registered and activated users can see links]) here though they almost have the same info.

Because the Neopets team can't keep track of the Neopets universe's one-day-off calendar. That's probably why almost all of the world events and pet celebration days are late as well.

We've finished preparing our score sender program for this year's Altador Cup. This time, we'll be assigning our chosen team automatically through our program once you've used it to sign into Neopets. VIP users will be free to play for whichever team they choose. Everybody else will be required to play for our team in order to use our program. If you have already chosen a team that doesn't happen to align with our choice, then you will need to purchase VIP. We will be conducting day-one testing tomorrow before our program goes live, and will be responding to your applications soon after.

Thank you for your patience, and stay tuned for more updates!

Hey Bat, let me please ask you a few things, as I said before, I'm looking to apply for ck team, I have 11 main accounts and 9 spare proxies to bot, on my main accounts, all of them are spread different teams that I play every year on each account, meaning i'm not on team ck, am I welcome to apply for team ck for my other 9 proxies/accounts? I love our AC cup forum and always am participative there but I'd like to know if that wont be an issue. Anyway, I got VIP so if i'm not welcome to participate in the team, i can totally understand it.
And just to confirm, does this mean the program will be autopicking a team for someone who makes it? (which raises me the question if someone who didnt make the team will be able to know ck team by using the program? will there be 2 programs (for team members and vip users), be careful with that)

Other than that, best of luck for you and joe testing the program tomorrow and best of luck to all of us!

Since you've got VIP, you'll have access to the program regardless of whether or not you you receive an invitation to join. If you join our team, then the program will automatically select it on any account you use which isn't already on a team. If you want to choose a different team, then you'll need to join on your accounts before using those accounts in our program. Our program will not auto-select a team for you if you weren't invited to join ours. There won't be more than one program.

Thanks!

Basically, only way to use the SS is to be invited in the ck team (you have to play for that specific team) or get VIP, use the SS and be able to pick any team.

Bat did answer this before "We'll be reviewing all of the applications at the same time, and invitations will go out afterwards." page 8 of this thread.

In regards to waiting it out: well, the penalty for joining AC after it has already begun isn't that high (as pointed out in a reply to my query earlier), if you don't have an urgent reason to join a team before cK selection process is finished, then you may as well wait? I dunno, just my two cents.

I've used CrossOver Mac in the past to get Windows programs running on my old Mac. For some programs I've had to use a Virtual Machine to make it work. I know it's a hassle but it's definitely an option. Only other hope is that the programs could be compiled to Mac but I suspect there's compatibility issues preventing that happening anytime soon :/

I understand testing before releasing the program. I'm not quite sure why we're not being told the team on (or before) Day 1, so that we can actually play through other means.

It takes ~8-10 hours to cap all games so I need to get started ASAP to obtain Quad All-Star, especially considering I also need time to develop my own automation.

The reason for this was mentioned so many times in this thread though. In the past the cK team was leaked and that leads to big issues. I am in the same boat as you but I completely understand why all the secrecy and things have to be done this way... It's for the cK team's best interest that it's done like that.
