Anyone know why people I don't know are in my weekly contest?

It's always just been my FB friends but it disappeared for about a week and now there are people i dont know in it...

With millions playing it's not surprising there are people you don't know. Get to know some of them and make some new friends. You may need them before you make it to 10,000!

Paula2312 · September 2021

But strangers haven't been in it before and I don't want them now! I genuinely don't mean that rudely - i just want to play against my friends....

Hi and Welcome to the King Community

They are randomly selected from King Players, So not all of our friends list

Paula2312 · September 2021

But I've been playing for years and this is the first time non friends have appeared in there so something has obviously changed...I dont want to compete against thousands of other ppl!

That's right, King made changes recently and we can see players from all over.

It's great

Kidding me right?

I'm well over 10000 and didn't need anyone but my friends and Paula is right.

I don't want to be in a world championship just want to play top my friends and above all, I don't want strangers appearing on my phone.

Think I'll be leaving soon if this doesn't change back.

Over 10000 levels, approx at least 15 minutes for a level making ehhh 15000 minutes of CC....

Those people you see are random players from King. It might be an advantage appearing in your game.. some of them are active players and could give you lives if you need one… Your fb friends i believe are still there on your game too.

Why are there people I don’t know on the leaderboard? I prefer to play against people on my friends list … not meaning to be rude.

Alienscar · October 2021

Hello @KathyBW as explained above the addition of random people to your leader boards is the result of a recent change made by King

Lynn_Kalbfleisch · November 2021

King needs to change this back. There is no way to win anything now. Last week I passed 58 levels and didn't even finish in top 3. This is just another way to screw you out of free boosters.
