As I had two leaderboard games in the final I charted the levels that all the players were on when the final finished. I am wondering if anyone has a suggestion as to why there were so few players in the 2000-4000 level range? And it certainly seems to indicate that there were not many top players in the final of this event. There was no notable difference between the two games (one a beginner, the other playing at 16,000) so think player allocation really is random as they state.
These are my numbers:
Levels 1-1000: 27 players
level 1000-2000: 17 players
level 2000-3000: 4 players
level 3000-4000: 3 players
level 4000-5000: 8 players
level 5000-6000: 7 players
level 6000-7000: 10 players
level 7000-8000: 17 players
level 8000-9000: 9 players
level 9000-10,000: 7 players
level 10,000-11,000: 2 players
level 11,000-12,000: 3 players
level 12,000-13,000: 2 players
level 13,000-14,000: 2 players
level 14,000-15,000: 2 players
level 15,000-16,000: 2 players
level 16,000-17,000: 2 players (including myself)
Obviously this is just a tiny, tiny sample of 2 out of 10,000 leaderboards.
Thanks, Christine. I love stats. I find it interesting to observe the spike in the chart at levels 6000-8000. In my experience, these are the best levels to play tournaments, with the exception of levels below 1000, of course. Those levels yield a lot, and usually players at this level range have a stash of gold to help their efforts. But from what I read, this Candy Cup and the game in general are now too skewed towards beginners. Did many of them make it to the top 6?
Re. speculation on why so few players in 2000-4000 range, perhaps those players also didn't get Candy Cup at all, like me. (am L3500+ for reference)
I see one community post already showed a winner posting their 50 party poppers. On the one hand, King finally made good on something; on the other hand, I doubt they want us (excluded players) to reap that advantage.
Edit: dunno how I messed up this post's formatting.🤦♂️
