Candy Crush won 2 times weekly

Question

Hi I won twice for the weekly candy Crush and now somebody with no name or profile has won over 200 levels are you taking the Mickey to try and stop me winning the big prize? I love this game but no way anybody had done over 200 levels in 3 or 4 days?

Yes, I have done that many levels in four days because I've been competing in the Winter Cup. King are indeed taking the Mickey to try and stop you winning the big prize, it's exactly as @Alienscar has pointed out:  They put this player into your game to make it "challenging" for you.

Believe it or not @Stevebanc70 there are some players out there that can complete 200 levels in three days. With the Winter Cup taking place at the moment any casual player will be at a disadvantage as the Winter Cup encourages people to play all day.

The real problem here is not the Player but King. Candy Crush is designed to psychologically make you care about things that don't really matter with the aim of making you use real money to stay ahead of the competition, or keep hold of a Win Streak. In reality it doesn't matter if you lose your Win Streak/Champions Race/Weekly Contest or whatever as ultimately it makes no difference.

See it for for what it is Steve. King has placed a high scoring player in your Contest to goad you into beating that player at all costs just so you can claim the 'big prize'

Hello Steve @Stevebanc70🤗 Hearty Welcome to our sweet King Community!

I completely understand your frustration!!

There are 2 reasons... That player might be playing offline and created a log-in just now, which adds them to the race, and shows their "played levels" a lot!  Or there could be a glitch that brought in a robot (which is happening to few people).

It has been reported to the game team and we are waiting to hear back from them.  If you will have to contact the Player Support team to report about this, I will get back to you and let you know.

If you have any questions in the meantime, please reply back by typing in the blank box given below.

Thank you for joining our Community & have a great rest of the day🍫🍫
