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.
Descent of the Aions
I chose Descent of the Aions as my track of the week because the week has been quite busy and I have been feeling a bit sick lately. I wanted a track with a bit more impact so I chose this track from Trails of Azure, the second part of the Crossbell Arc. This track plays in a dramatic scene on top of the large Orchis in Crossbell, where you find out the truth about what Kea is. Then this track plays as you see the Aions enter the space and you understand that some serious stuff is happening. As it was one of the most important events in probably the best game out of the series that I have played so far, I can't forget this track. There are two versions of this track and I like both of them, but the EVO version seems to be slightly better to me.
The thing that I think of when I listen to this track is the Aions. The Aions are machines made by Ouroboros and they were powered by something important to the story. Generally, it would not be possible for these machines to be so powerful and also run normally. These machines become an enemy that you have to deal with and when I played Cold Steel before Azure, I didn't understand what the Aions were when they destroyed Garellia Fortress. The scene towards the end of Azure where your allies fight these giant Aions is something that I won't forget because of what happened to Renne and Pater-Mater. They also make another appearance in Cold Steel 3/4 as an enemy that you face in your Divine Knight or Soldats. The image comes from the wiki page for Aion.
Do you like any of these tracks? If so, why?

Current Status
I gained 33k STARBITS over the past week. I did better than last week as I did the millionaire mission most of the week, but there were still a few days that I missed. It is still better than the previous week. I did get an epic card this time around on my pack openings.
Current Ranking
My rank went up quite a little this week. I am glad to see the numbers go back up because I am trying to get my millionaire mission along with that long 4-hour mission every single day. I wish it was higher, but I think I am slowly getting back into the normal pattern.

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.
