The only way I can open the first level in a episode race is to replay the last level in previous race. The start/finish banner is covering it now. I didn't have a problem until I got the new event tab layout and Jelly streak.
My other account without the new layout and Jelly streak doesn't have the banner at the start of the race.
Jelly streak
A couple years ago @Alienscar I tried changing the date for lives and it messed the episode race up. I come in last every time from the start.
The good thing is my episode race doesn't count so it's not a big deal to play one more level.
I never had this until the recent changes to my events tab.
@Alienscar I just completed an episode race and here's what I get Everytime. I hit next at the end of previous race so I wouldn't have to replay the last level. This is my episode race standing after the first level is played and I always have the same players in my race.
Another issue this morning is with factory frenzy. In events tab it's in progress, my stripes are being counted, I'm the only one in the race and the time is at 0.🤷
This is what shows on the map. I see my gold bars total increased by 4 so I guess I'm getting something from it. I never noticed that before.
Hi @Kerrie always being last in the Episode Race is an old issue that has being going on since I have been a member of this forum
There is no fix for the issue other than to start a totally new game (different email address to your current one).
Just search the term 'always last race' and you will see posts about the issue.
I have the same issue as you with the Factory Frenzy and always have since it started.
I don't support it will surprise you, but King has done something similar in the past. Do you remember Mr Toffee's Vault Challenge? The Vaults stopped people from playing levels in a similar manner to your start banner.
The lack of complaints about this issue must mean that a relatively small group of players have received the banner update.
In my game I have a new look Weekly Contest win streak and I now have Yeti cheering me on at the end of a level instead of Tiffi.
