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.
Ancient Makes
I chose Ancient Makes as this week's track because it was the first final boss theme I heard from the Trials (Kiseki) series. This track always stands out to me as a very memorable track in Trials in the Sky, and I can't forget it as I listen to it almost every single day. This track plays as you fight against the giant robot at the end of the ruins. There are three versions of this track, but I like the resonant sage track the most. The arrangement on it is just the best. After that, I prefer the Evolution OST more than the original. I don't usually like the EVO tracks, but I just like this one more than the original.
I think about Reverie when I see hear this track. Reverie is the giant robot you fight at the end of the ruins. It was an interesting fight, and I honestly had a hard time the first time I fought this boss. I think I was just a bit underleveled so I struggled quite a bit, and I ended up winning by spamming the overpowered items. I did manage to beat it on the highest difficulty, but it was definitely a fight that I remember. The image comes from the wiki for Reverie.
Do you like any of these tracks? If so, why?

Current Status
I gained 127k STARBITS over the past week. I didn't do so great on my missions as work kept me busy, but I did try to get what I could in. I still have a decent skill lead so my ego isn't going past 0% anytime soon. I didn't get anything great from my pack openings this week.
Current Ranking
My rank stayed the same. I didn't really do too much this week, so I am a bit surprised to see myself stay at the same rank this week.

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.
