Member of the Month - May 2019 - bearwithme

For the month of May our Community Managers and Superstars have chosen... [puts on reading glasses and pulls the envelope string while the audience holds the breath]...

✨👏👏👏 Congratulations!! 🏆🥇👏👏👏

We have chosen you for your friendly and inspiring thread comments in the Community. We have seen your posts in several game communities and other members have taken note in your presence and enjoyed your ideas, comments and caring posts

🎤🎧🔊 We gave the microphone to bearwithme for an interview:

Which of King's games are you currently playing and what do you like about them? Which one is your fav?

I am currently playing Candy Crush Saga (my favorite - I have been playing for 7+ years), Candy Crush Friends, Candy Crush Soda, Pet Rescue Puzzle, Blossom Blast and Alphabetty.  I like the various challenges of the games (some I am better at than others).  I love the dances the friends do in Candy Crush Friends, I've always liked word games and I love rescuing all those cute animals and  dressing them in different hats and placing them in different rooms.  However there is something about the original - Candy Crush Saga, that just has me hooked.  I've played it so long that I usually know what to look for and I appreciate the ability to stock up on boosters to get through the hard levels. 

What's your best memory with King games? And on the Community?

My best memory with King games was when I finally made it to the most current level in CCS and joined what we affectionately called the Wednesday club (where we all would wait for the new levels to get released). My best memory in the community was the welcome I received and the friendships I am making.  @Elsa was there as a mentor and friend from the very beginning and I truly appreciated it.

Do you have any expectations from the Community?

My expectations from the community are pretty much what I have found - respect for each other, people willing to lend a helping hand (tips/advice/answer questions etc.) and also a place to have fun and  a chance to win some gold and boosters.

What do you like the most about our Community?

I like the camaraderie between the community members and the ability to reach out to the Superstars, Community Moderators and Managers with questions and suggestions and ideas. I like the freedom to make suggestions, create discussions and even the opportunity to complain with fellow players about  difficult levels or changes (even temporary ones) to the various games.

If you could change anything about King (games, community, etc), what would it be?

I wish there was a bit more feedback from King - especially about some of the things that they try out.  The first time you find out about something is if you are in a test group and you are all of a sudden experiencing something new - not so bad if its a potential new assist to the game but not so good if something is being taken away (like sugar drops). 

How did you find about the Community?

I saw the community mentioned in one of the Candy Crush FB groups I belong to and decided to check it out and I am definitely glad I did!

Anything else you'd like to share?

I hope I haven't gone on too long - I just want to say thank you again to all the community managers and superstars.  As I mentioned above - there are some pretty wonderful people out in the community and I very much appreciate this honor.
