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 played in the past.
Tharbad Night
I chose Tharbad Night as this week's track because this was another busy week, and I wanted something a little more fun this week. I spent the weekend relaxing and playing games, so I thought this track fit what I was feeling between my chores. This game plays in Trails Through Daybreak in the city of Tharbad, and it's too bad that this track doesn't play very often. I think in total, this track only plays for a few minutes during your entire trip to this city. I do like it, and it's my favorite town theme in the first Daybreak game. It's so full of life and energy, and it's a track that I listen to quite often.
I think about Salvatore Gotti when I hear this track. Between him and Judith, I would have to say that this represents Salvatore more. Salvatore Gotti is a film director, and he is fun character to see. I think that he is energic and loud, but he has the ability to back it up. He shows up a few times, and during some of the nighttime events, you can even see some of the movies that he worked on (summary) in the theaters. The image comes from the wiki for Salvatore Gotti.
Do you like any of these tracks? If so, why?

Current Status
I gained 92k STARBITS over the past week. I think I did 6 starbit millionaire missions, and missed one day. So, I did decently. I still need to make sure to do more missions to offset the pack costs though.
I did get lucky and get 2 epic cards this week.
Current Ranking
My rank went up by 1. I haven't noticed any notable changes, but my rank did drop slightly. I did open my packs a bit late so I think some people have moved up due to the unique cards from the new cards released.

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.
