You are absolutely correct @JesseNL and it has been a deliberate strategy for many players in the past during such competitions to join late rater than early. The fact is that there is no real advantage starting early in terms of your chances of going through to the next round with this system: Every player is competing against others who also start at that time. However starting later means you will spend less time crushing. For some people that is a bonus. Others enjoy playing Candy Crush every day and for them to start on the first day makes sense. This system does mean that people who for example have to work Thursday and Friday can then choose the weekend to start participating, which seems fair to me.

The next round, the first final knockout round, will be like this as well, because it is running over four days.

The last of the three final knockout rounds will be held over 24 hours and every player must play non-stop for the entire 24 hour period in order to stand a chance to win.

The middle round is a little more complex and I am not sure about it at the moment. Players who start that round late may find that there are already others way ahead on their leaderboard, so I would advise against it.

It’s all good we’re helping each other

hello

Why I don t see the minutor

And I don t know if I m qualified

Please help me

I am almost a nerd now

I think you can definitely class yourself as a fully fledged nerd now @__MULLIGANACEOUS__ based on the detail and knowledge shown in this thread.

Good luck in the Final Knockouts and I really hope the dash issue doesn't overly hinder your chances.

Which bit don't you believe @christinewupp that @Tababy07 can complete an Episode in 12 minutes or that it is possible to earn 3000 points from one Episode.

A bit difficult to see but I scored 3020 points in one Episode. I am not as quick a player as Tabay, or you though and it took me an hour. No tokens, levels 7386-7401

I made it! Does blue candies still get collected even tho the next round hasn't started

Which episode have you come across that gives you 3000 blue in 12 minutes @Tababy07 ? I do not believe this is possible to be honest. I guess we'll see you in London then as it would make you unbeatable.

I had over 24000 in third place. 1st had over 35000 and 2nd had over 33000.
