This thread is no longer needed now that we have the Hub and official announcements. So I've deleted the post hoping it will no longer attract new attention, thanks.

I will "close" this thread now since I don't like the way it's veering off topic. That was not the intention. Fortunately I have the power to edit the word "All Stars" out of the title so no one else will add to my thread. Please use the official threads or start your own discussion.
The entire tournament is funded through the players, we should get a larger cut of the revenue. It reasonable to ask for bigger purse.
@morganleeoregon While I doubt your numbers are correct - I suspect King makes far less than that - I nonetheless agree that they are probably taking in much more money (especially when you also factor in money from ads) than they are paying out. And I suspect that a higher amount of prize money might attract more attention and wind up making more money than they will make as is. So even if I disagree with your numbers, I do agree with your idea that an increased prize pool might be helpful to King as well as to anyone who wins.
I'm here trying to get king to give more money to us. But all these sad losers attacking my post to get less money? My god people are dumb. I'm 100% confident none of you sad sacks will be in the final livr tournament.
The number of people who will spend money and how much is way too high. If King brought in 60 million I would be shocked.
Nope, sitting it out and in general taking a break till fall. Hopefully they will get the 1-3000 sorted out better. The experience is very tedious atm.
I've played many games where people use bots and I can tell you with 100% certainty that they are being used in all stars. King hasn't done anything about it in 3 years and will delete posts that talk about it. Trust me when I say you will not make the finals.
Surely your assumptions are excessive. I know a lot of people are stupid, but 1.5 million players spending $400 each on this competition? I certainly hope there aren't that many fools out there!
This was last year prize break down
1st: $500K
2nd: $250K
3rd: $100K
4th: $50K
5th: $25K
6th: $25K
7th:$15K
8th: $15K
9th: $10K
10th: $10K This is excellent amount but I feel the purse should be bigger!!
I read that there was around 15 million players in the tournament. Let's assume only like 10% of those players will spend money.
That is 1.5 million players that will pay to buy boosters and gold. Let's assume those paying will spend around…$400 in the tournament.
That means the tournament will generate around $600 million in revenue. Let's not forget all the ads they will play to all 15 million. That easily go bring another $1-$2 billion in revenue. But let's focus on the paying customers only for theory.
$1million purse is not even 1% of the $600 million revenue. They should share more of the revenue with the players. $5 million is more generous.
If you increase the purse, it could be potentially the biggest gaming purse in gaming history and bring in even more players and thus generate even more money. Look at what LIV did with professional golf. Same idea here!
Hi. Aren't you participating in the all Star competition?
I love how low key this is this year, I guess they did not want to piss off half the world this time haha.
I've got the warm-up. 3000 purple candies to get a fish booster and some star points. This is on windows.
You might yet be right @Pyrospring . I don't see any sign of any star shaped candies or the warm up collection in my game. If I somehow did end up on the blacklist then "angry" will not be a strong enough word to describe my reaction.
Are you all seeing the special candies and the warmup event? My two test games have both got them.
A share of $1,000,000 according to today's pop-up
There was no mention at all about prizes in the info. It said the live final would be held in California around 11th June I think. We'll just have to wait now for the official information.
Hmm…… if it is a real person it's surely a "she" given the name. I have been suspecting that the game experts that have appeared in the community this winter are AI programs enlisted to aid the overwhelmed moderators by taking over the more mundane and technical queries. So far I thought they'd done a good job mostly. Anyone interested where this info originated this is the post:
What is the prize break down

If you were wondering if you were on King's naughty list… well now there is no question 😁
Also that poor game expert, assuming it was a guy, they are gonna have to get Yeti's manbun and no one would wish that on their worst enemy.
OOPS! It wasn't me! It was someone in Support, one of the Game Experts who posted about this link! I was wondering if they'd made a blunder as there had been no official announcement yet. I guess we'll have to wait until Monday now. The page is all gone now.
I did note down the dates though before they disappeared: All the rounds are running from Thursday to Monday mornings, one week apart. Starting on 21 March -24th for the qualifiers. Then each weekend with the 2nd final knockouts 17th to 21st April (Easter). The third final knockouts were scheduled for Saturday 26th to Sunday 27th April.

Anybody notice this? My husband and I were talking about the weekly race and mentioning the points our 1st place people have. It dawned on me his points were the same as my first place person. I hadn't paid attention to the name. Realized it was the same as his as well as the profile pic. Pulled up the stats and compared…
LoLove everything, but the bakers box has to go! Use too many hits to find anything and takes too long to get hits. BBakers box has to go!!!
