For the past four weeks any challenges on Candy Crush Saga no longer pays out winnings if I am a top person (striped candy challenge or star challenge). Further, at the end of the challenge, nothing even shows up regarding the end results. The daily treat (sorry if that isn't the correct title, going by memory) is stuck on opening Day 1 every day, or if I play a second time later in the day it will again open Day 1 or sometimes Day 2. Now with the new challenge of "baking" for the dinosaur, any progress ends if I close out the game. I decided to leave the game open to see if I could finish it this morning, and instead when the page refreshed, all progress was wiped out at stage 6/7.
I understand King adding challenges to keep everything fresh and new, but with not being able to show any completion, the purpose is defeated. I've made sure my browser allows cookies for the game, but the results are the same.
