Someone pops up from nowhere with 321 levels won with 1 day to go

In level race someone pops up with one day to go from absolutely nowhere with 321 levels won! I was double everyone else with 175 ? Where did they come from ?

@TADCLEm22 Hi and welcome, The reason for this is they are playing offline and then reconnect when they think the race is over or its impossible for them to be passed. hence they pop up from nowhere with these scores. This has happened to me on various occasions and although its not really a fair way of playing there is not a lot that can be done to prevent it

Yes, King's composition for the race is random. Players can be added who are just starting or starting from scratch. They play offline and then switch back to the race for a short time and thus appear in front of you.
