📅 Weekly Contest showing scores higher than normal

Alienscar

Ah well that is the thing @Carol-38 it might still be linked to lives, but only if King selects you as the Troll in the Weekly Contest.

Can you ask Melanie how many lives she received?

Yes... I suspect this is totally done by the Studio.

And I also got such a troll, in my weekly contest, who wasn't there before an hour, but completed 139 levels.

I'm experiencing the same @Carol-38 . Take a look at this.

Hi @Alienscar Melanie said she could possibly have received all those lives since Monday. She isn't really into it like us, just plays every now and again. She said she has players who keep sending her lives, she doesn't know who the players are or where they came from but she isn't complaining.

I didn't tell her she might be a troll we'll just see what happens Sunday/Monday.

Please note that I am not a cheater!!!

My Weekly Contest had disappeared for weeks. I had notice that a couple of people had the same happen to them. Then yesterday it appeared. When I saw my total, I was shocked. The only thing that came to mind is that it represents all the levels I had completed from the time it disappeared up to where I am today. 🤷🏽‍♀️

If anything I was cheated all thought weeks that it had disappeared!!! 😊

Well, you have a screenshot which is usually what you ask for. This is a major bug in your system. Also, the rewards for second and third place have become ridiculous and not even worth it.

This just happened to me. I had 84 levels and the next closest was in the 20’s. Now I have 69 levels and someone has 120. So I lost 15 levels somehow on top of the nearly impossible task of clearing 100 levels in an hour.

@MiladyR 🤔Very interesting 🤔

We've been talking about this here also.

***Tried to put the link for the "troll in the weekly race" discussion here but I couldn't get it to work. I can't post links yet, sorry.

Something's going on with this for sure. If those high numbers show up like they have been for many of us your explanation makes sense. But...why would several weeks be all under 1 week? It resets every week. Why am I in 2nd place on my screen and in 1st place on @Alienscar screen and we're in the same race? We have the same people in our race except for those high scores that pop up from nowhere people.

I wish we could get an update of some kind from support in regards to this problem.

@Kerrie I don't know for sure if that is the case (cumulative total of missing weeks). I sure wish this can get resolved because it's been weeks I've been missing out on boosters. I'm usually in the top three.

@MiladyR What you said make sense though. It made me feel a little better about maybe my avatar showing up somewhere with wrong totals on it. That makes me uncomfortable. I don't want people thinking I did it or that I'm trying to cheat.
