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.
