Here is my weekly status and giveaway. I also talk about an OST track that I like. Please make sure to read the rules to qualify for the giveaway. I chose a track from a game that I haven't played yet but I know about.
D.A.Y./BREAK
I chose D.A.Y./BREAK as my track of the week. This is a very uplifting track that I listen to all the time, and it is the opening track for the fighting game Ys vs. Sora no Kiseki: Alternative Saga. This game was only released on the PSP, and there was no official English release. I have heard of a Geofront patch that can let you play this game, but I don't want to resort to that unless I am forced to. So this is a track that I have yet to play. I think this track and Soaring Through Azure Sadness (Gurumin) are the two memorable tracks from this game and they are on the list of tracks I go through regularly. In particular, I think this track mixes the violin and guitar well. I have also included the opening for the game above where the track is used but it doesn't play the entire track.
The thing that I think the most about when I hear is the game Ys vs. Sora no Kiseki: Alternative Saga. The image is the box art for the game, and I like how it's a match-up of Adol from Ys and the duo-protagonists Estelle/Joshua from Trails in the Sky. Although I don't play many fighting games, I would still play this game if there was an official release on PC. It sucks to see that it was only released on the PSP. I was a bit surprised to see Lloyd from the Crossbell arc on the playable character list, but I feel that the Ys side focuses a bit too much on Ys 7's characters. The image is from the Ys vs. Trails in the Sky: Alternative Saga wiki page.
Do you like any of these tracks? If so, why?

Current Status
I gained 37k STARBITS over the past week and if you add in the millionaire mission, I got around 104k. It wasn't that great this week as I got bad luck on my 4 hour missions on starbits and the first half of the week was spent on the seasonal mission. I did get an epic card this week from my openings.
THe Halloween event is over and I didn't do that mission too much, but I did get a copy of both instruments at least.
Current Ranking
My rank went up slightly. My time played is up because I started doing more long missions, but it didn't move me up much. I also opened my packs late so the cards that I got earlier today didn't count towards the rankings.

Tips (source)
I think the tips are something every new player should know about. It will help people progress in the game and it hasn't really been shared since surya1adiga stopped his giveaways.
- Take music lessons when possible to raise skill and reduce ego.
- Having lesson specific instruments helps in receiving more skill from that lesson.
- Have pizza box to store any pizza received during mission to reuse later.
- Buy cold pizza slice if possible. This gives 1 refill every 24hours. Comes very handy when you are low on energy.
- If you have enough of cold pizza slice and pizza box, you will never run out of energy.
- If you have more fans than skill and you won't reduce the ego , you can use a storage trailer to store unnecessary cards. Or you can list the card in market for an unreasonably high price.
- Ego received for a particular mission increases every time you play it. The ego is reset to base level the next day. So, try to play different missions to control the ego gained.
Keep track of your achievements to unlock in game rewards- Buy storage trailer (only if necessary) to keep the cards that might have a negative effect. Like a card with high fan count resulting in ego.
- When earning skill points through music lessons, you can earn more points per lesson if you hold more of specific instrument cards. There seems to be base skill which is rewarded irrespective of the card count and then the skill increases depending on the number of the lesson specific card one has.
- Try taking up many smaller missions to fill up pizza boxes and have extra energy to play more rewarding missions. But you need to have pizza boxes for this to work.
