haha i'm finally starting to get used to how to do this, i'm probably not doing very well right now but i'm having fun and learning so that's what matters. still, i really thought bungou stray dogs would have more followers and i think helck is a sneaky best of summer 2023, though idk if people realize it yet. then again that could just be my particular taste.

If I could figure out Ace, I'd be dangerous.  How it's explained to work and how I have experienced it working are worlds apart.

So uhh, I was mindlessly entering my swaps and aces in the last few weeks because I didn't think my team was any good...

But had to do a double take just now– how did I jump from 3011th to 64th in one round? 😳

i don't even know how to get a lower rank anymore. week 1 i was in 1000s and now i'm at 3044 even after correct aces and swaps. last time reached 201 but ended in 3000s. i don't think i can even think of getting a low rank this time around.

The end of an era. Thank you Wit, Mappa and Isayama.
Feeling half happy, half sad.

Pick the one with the most points this week, that is less than 75k watching. Right now Kekkon has more points than Suki na ko ga Megane, so you can ace it. Just make sure it still has more points before the deadline and nothing overtakes it.

I assume you did not ace week 1. I only jumped  +646->167 could not ace last week due to  Suki na Ko ga Megane wo Wasureta> I should make top 100 this week I am guessing, since I have all top 5 shows.

The longer you play the better strategies you will come up with and more importantly the better you will get at gauging what the MAL community at large will watch. This will makes your teams much better from the outset. As far as bungou goes it will be a late game anime i think. Either the play will be to swap it in for weeks 10-13 or just week 13.

You should be fine, since the anime you need to ace needs to be the next available anime that you can pick.
Only time you would be penalized is if you aced an anime when another anime with the highest score that week hasn't been aced before or if you aced an anime that hit 75k members watching that week.

No problem! :). I notice that you are on my friends list by sheer coincidence so i was able to look at your team. You will get better quickly if you learn how to pick the best shows before the season starts.

Actually, no. If the anime you aced before is still the highest and is still below 75k watching+completed members, you shouldn't ace the next highest. If you do you'll lose points, so you have to wait for another anime to be the highest or the previously aced anime passing 75k viewers.

@Parag3 if the anime you aced w3 had the most points that means your ace was successful. Now in w4 you should wait if the anime you aced in w3 is still the highest before acing any other anime.

Thank you for the correction. Wish this was made clearer in the official rules.

Literally what I thought last week. Ended up making this mistake last week and went from 23rd to 218th. Then, because I had already aced the anime everyone else is acing this week, I'm now down from 218th to 1698th. Quite annoying to fall so far because of vague rules that don't explain themselves well enough.

ah, i see. well i guess i'll just keep playing and learning. i think for this season i just picked things that interested me but maybe wouldn't be the most popular. i still think helck is going to end up super popular but probably not until much much later. actually, i think i want to watch the most recent episode again because it was really really funny.

I can't remember, to be honest. I think I've actually aced every week. :')

I dipped last week because my team's not that strong and also because of some swapping antics. But I'm missing two of the top anime, so I'll take being 37th right now. This will be my greatest achievement, haha.
