Liked:

- The feeling after winning both 6 days and t1...

- The Chips from medal pulls that helped me to a raider

<p style="text-align:left;">- The team really coming together to scan and help out on Day 5 and Day 6

<p style="text-align:left;">Disliked:

<p style="text-align:left;">- People not helping on days 1-4 and even then some who didn't on day 5 and 6

<p style="text-align:left;">- The lost amount of sleep. Slept only 2-3 hours each on day 5 and day 6.

<p style="text-align:left;">- A non-contributing member of the team calling me greedy for hitting his routine day end bludgeon to stay active.

<p style="text-align:left;margin-bottom:0px!important;">Overall this was an amazing experience. I never planned on T1ing let alone making it to the top 10 or for a 6 day win. The moment I saw that I was the 27th member on a random team, I gave up. I played 2 hours that night and 2 hours the next day and we won. Asked the team to up the multiplier and that I would join for day 2 late night. They did a little of that, so I played again with that benefit and got Day 2. Team was almost non-existent on Day 3, so I had to do all the work. Did the same on Day 4 until the opponent team gave up. On day 3 and 4 no one else scored even a million. I actually figured we won't make it any further on Day 5 since luck as a big piece and we didn't face any of the top players from days 1 - 4. So I continued scoring after the opponent gave up to get to T1 since the multiplier was high. You guys may recall me asking for advise in the chat regarding this. When day 5 started we were up against kwng81 and I knew we were done. Started scoring more for T1 sake and noticed couple of team members were actively scanning. They were on/off but they did scan. At this point I really liked the 3-4 members who scanned for me and didn't want to let the team down so decided to go for it. KWNG81 kept us up all night. We put a 50 mill lead and went to bed expecting to be on the losing side. Woke up 3 hours later and he had only tied us. I started scoring again and the opposition didn't move. Didn't seem like anyone was helping KWNG81 out (found out later he couldn't play for last half). That led to a big lead and winning. Same awesome members turned up again to scan on Day 6. We were out of the gate like greyhounds and they scanned a lot that we hit the x2 multiplier pretty quick. We were up against PHILM and he had some good scaners as they were also in the millions. I kept going nonetheless because of my team! It was painful to watch the scores as they were neck and neck for so long and only hour by hour slowly made a lead. But credit to PHILM -- he never stops. I couldn't sleep because I kept seeing his score move. Finally I had to sleep, so I took 2 hours after putting a 60 Mil lead. He had eaten that away to 30 when I woke up. None of my members being T1ers or even T2ers, they ran out of EC fairly quickly on day 6. The 2 main guys actually made x5 EC purchases to keep scanning after they ran out. Their first purchase ever and one of them was only a 10K deck. How can I let them lose? So just kept scoring and increasing the lead which went on to a win. PHILM stopped when there was about 3 hours left due to some circumstances, but was a good battle nonetheless. I didn't see his wall-posting, so I kept going non-stop and ended up as rank #4 :)

<p style="text-align:left;margin-bottom:0px!important;">That's my story. Couldn't wait to tell it. Never expected to T1 or win 6 days on a TVT. I've only T1'd the Jetfre episode before and started playing just 6 weeks ago. So guys, with time it is possible. Time time time. Lots of sacrifices which translate to ... time. And a load of cubes of course.
