Re: All my Weekly race opposition are new players under level 200!
I find it annoying that I’m competing against all players below level 200 and I’m at 14000. It’s not even a competition at this point so I don’t even bother. Level it back to the way it was then it’s a weekly competition!

How informative and surprising @Nobody1! You sure are lucky to be competing against the novices who are nowhere a match for you.

Hi @shalersco and welcome to our community and thanks for sharing your views and experiences. King are certainly not making it easy for most of us to win the weekly race! They want us all to play more levels and spend more money to try and win it, so not bothering is exactly what I would recommend.

Thanks for the help with my research! They wouldn't stand a chance against you if you were in their games, but of course they won't see you in their games at all. It's a very misleading event I find.
I have half from Asia and half from the UK in my game.
So there is definitely a regional element as to who they pick as our competitors. And there is a large test group who get newbies assigned to their weekly race. I wonder who the newbies themselves get to compete against. I know I said I wouldn't start another test game myself but I'm curious to find out.

More stats for you, @christinewupp. Ever since the Weekly Race changed, I have been in a group of players who are all from Norway, like me. Different players each week.
This week they are on levels between 300 and 7000, and all of them have passed more than me (45 levels) in the past week. Needless to say I haven’t been able to even get on the podium for weeks.
Re: All my Weekly race opposition are new players under level 200!
this isn't a glitch!! I've been complaining about this for months!! I'm playing against someone on levels 2000 or 3000, this week, the top three are on level 300 and under, they passed over 100 levels and I'm stuck on level 17896 because I have two legendary levels, two super hard levels, and five hard levels on this episode, how am I or anyone on higher level supposed to compete with players on lower levels?? this is ridiculous and the admin isn't doing anything about it.
Re: All my Weekly race opposition are new players under level 200!
I’ve been playing this game since it started and have never or will ever spend money, nice to see that I’m not the only one have issues with what is going on, they’d change so much and this game is not fun anymore

Thank you for chipping in @Rhonda_L ! It's such valuable information you contribute there.
I think that although the other players MUST be real currently active players, given that we can see their player cards, I often have found that my method of playing one or two episodes at a time means that I generally do overtake them and run away with the event once I start playing seriously. This is because the other players don't see us run away from them because THEY are not competing against US. There must be a lot of luck involved in the weekly race no matter how King try to manipulate the event. You might well be lucky and all those newbies have already been silly and wasted their gold and boosters and will get stuck on some legendary level soon. Let us know how you get on and good luck!

@christinewupp Yes they all have last race 5. I did send out some invites so I'll see if any come back.
Re: All my Weekly race opposition are new players under level 200!
Hello @christinewupp I dont get the weekly race, I get this Jelly Streak occasionally, I am not sure if this is similar or not. I cannot find out if they players are on low levels or not nothing happens when I click on their icon pictures. 🙄 Happy Crushing 😀
