Why did you allow to play offline All stars instead just online?

Hi,

When running race started (say 10miles running) everybody start running at fast pace initially and then slowdown, and again increases the speed based on other players progress. Whereas, in all starts, you can't see someone's progress in their pool. All of sudden, someone will jump high in leaderbaod by uploading score from offline to online. This is really a sudden disappointment to a player, he could have done more to be the 1st in race if he knows about opponents movements.

What is the main reason to allow offline play to ALL STARTS when money involved?

Obvioulsy, when someone what participate in game they usually ready with all sort of things like wife or internet etcs. You don't need to allow offline play. I have no confidence playing ALL STARTS even I put efforts it will go waste.

Do your employs have the access to see a particular pool leaderboard scores?

I think the main reason is practicality. Offline play is a fundamental part of the way Candy Crush works, how the game is designed. I really don't think there is a way to just switch it off for the duration of a tournament. It is just part of the game. Also given the connection errors so many players experience with the game, myself included, if a player was thrown out of their level or the event every time their game went offline because of losing their internet connection, I would not want the be the person to answer the thousands of complaints. I am afraid what you are asking is completely impractical.
