The stats from past years plus gaming tips

cefilbert

I cannot find these, together, elsewhere in the discussions or in another forum. If they are already together, someplace, could somebody post a link?

otherwise, if known:

how many players, past years and/or this (so far) in each qualifying round?

what were the averages of player points in those at each level of passing?

Does/can the game get progressively harder for all players at same time?

is there equality in how many $ worth of boosts, etc you can bring into each round?

if it’s known how much the 10 finalists paid in boots throughout saga, what were the investments of each?

Is there equity in the final round (the same level, quantity of boosts allowed, time limit…)?

Those are the main stats I want to know

For tips, I’m a novice…I only realized you could go backwards to easier levels today, for example. Trying to learn as much as I can before the second round.

Many thanks for any help. I won’t beat you, but I want what feels like a chance in Hell.

Oh: final question is: I’m happy to give friends extra lives but am rarely getting requests. Is this normal? If I’m missing them, where are they? Can finalists get lots of extra lives or is it limited?
