Level 3
Anyone else finding the Candy Crush Troll playing in your Weekly Contest? For the past 3 weeks the Troll is gathering levels away for actual players in my game. I usually get 60+ levels each week but the Troll gets 100 in 2-3 days and wins each time, stealing to top spot from the rest of us and taking our rewards. This is not fair and is very irritating! Please end this!
Hello @Diane_Black you aren't the only player to be suffering from having the Candy Crush Troll in their Weekly Contest. As I said in the discussion linked below I think this is a despicable change by King.
There can be absolutely no good reason to include an artificial player into any game feature when that game has over two hundred million players.
The aim of King can only be to push one player out of the top three and reduce the amount of boosters won by the top two players.
It really is a weird insult. A couple of extra boosters really isn't a big deal, so I have no idea why they introduced such an offensive concept like this just to save a couple of extra boosters a week. I got bumped to #4 by the troll this week and that's, what, two missed boosters? It doesn't affect me much in the game, but the offensiveness of it stands out a lot more than the lost boosters does. It's just this big slap in the face to the players for no good reason.
I feel for you Diane, that is a disgusting amount of levels for King to 'give' to a player in the Weekly Contest. Calling it unfair is underselling just how nasty this change introduced by King is.
@Crazy Cat Lad @Pounawea I hope you are taking note of all the posts related to the appearance of the Troll in the Weekly Contest and passing back to the Game Team how unpopular it is.
Absolutely no offense attended, but it seems hard to believe that they are unaware of how unpopular this is. "I know what they'll love, something that keeps them from winning the weekly contests!" "What's this? They DON'T like our new thing that keeps them from winning the weekly contest for no reason?"
