Here is my weekly status and giveaway. It's nearly time for Christmas and I just haven't been touching the game that much. I will be going back to it later this week but I just haven't had as much time because I want to finish some work so I have more free time during the holidays.

The giveaway item is an R268 Lisa and it has 125 fans, 100 skill, 3 luck, and 3 income modifier. All musicians help quite a bit and it will help the people start unlocking more missions.

Current Status
My earnings are way down this week because I haven't been visiting the game that much. The past few days have made me busy and I want to make sure I am completely free during the holidays.
Current Stats
I got my stats and estimated collection value using the discord bot. I also saw a nice little bot to see my current collection value in Rising Star.
Current Ranking
My rank has dropped a lot and I forgot to open up packs for the week. Either way, there isn't much I can do about things but it's kind of weird to see my total points go up but my rank drop.

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.
