TerminatorBarbie Level 2

It makes no sense to me that CCS would make the odds so miserable players like myself quit watching ads altogether. Their algorithm knows I don't spend cash. The only way CCS was profiting from me was by my own willingness to watch ads, which they get paid very well per click! It took a few days, but my brain has…

By testing they mean seeing whether or not you will pay to play.

I am so old, stubborn, and feisty I'm no longer spending any bonuses in my inventory/gold bars, NOTHING! I get my knickers in a knot when anyone/anything tries to twist my arm/mind. Game On Algorithm, we're gonna have one heck of a long "Come To Jesus" meeting!💪🏼😅 🤣😂🤣😂

Same thing I'm experiencing. Just extra moves isn't worth watching the ads. They think they can lock us into watching 4 ads for a very slight chance of completing the level. I quit watching the ads.

You just nailed it! There is a ton of psychology/ mental manipulation involved. My feet are dug in, I only watch if I just leveled up. When the game locks up to push me to watch the 3 at the end I refuse. I'll stick it out on the same level. Our time is worth money too!

I feel the same way. I play my 25 lives in under 30 minutes and bounce out. I still get opportunities to watch ads, but only for 5 extra moves. I'm no longer being offered the bonuses that will allow you to complete the level . When this change first occurred I took the chance. I had one move left to win so I watched the 3…

Is the device (cell phone) you're playing on out of space?

I understand, and best wishes to you going forward.

I believe it said the priest's incident occured before the timing of the tournament, God only knows what that would have cost the parish! 😱

This happened to me after I made a purchase on Candy Crush. The ads eventually came back on mine, but I had also closed my PayPal account/never paid to play again. Seeing how chameleon candies work was a huge factor in my decision not to pay to play. The computer has the upper hand. It can slam the brakes on our forward…

I agree. A few extra moves is not worth watching the ads because you're still gonna lose. I hope they rethink this strategy. I encourage you to hang in there for a couple of weeks to see if they switch it back. This has got to be costing them a chunk of change!! Lots of players are starting to post on this subject.😬

Yup! Iearned that a couple of years via a .99 cent purchase. Right after making a purchase I got a warning from PayPal that someone was attempting to compromise my account. I hadn't used that PayPal account for anything else in years. I instantly shut down my PayPal account and never paid to play again. If CCS wants to…

It was a good exercise in "just how addicted to this (BLEEP) are we?".😅🤣😂🤣😂 I knew I liked playing, but I didn't realize I was addicted until it all went haywire. I'm a stubborn old broad, I don't pay to play.😅 In this economy who can spend money on a game with chameleon candies? 🤨 I'm blown away that people invest…

Did y'all see the criminal case where the priest stole $40,000.00 from his parish? Most of it was spent to level up on CCS. He's paid back 18k, but I believe it'sstill moving through the legal system. I had done a Google search on CCS, to see if others were posting about the same issues I was experiencing. I set the search…

I had the same experience for a week. I believe what was at the root of my problem was that I was out of space on my phone. I know that seems weird, but within an hour of fixing my space issue "most" (not all) of the problems were able to be resolved. I was getting a notice every time I opened the CCS app telling my I…

Fascinating conversation! I find it interesting that Microsoft purchased Activision Blizzard. I wonder if this had anything to do with changes here.🤔

I think a lot of the issues I was having had to do with a lack of space on my device. About an hour after I fixed the space issue the emails from support were delivered and I was able to reset my passwords. I forced stopped the CCS app, turned off my device, waited a few minutes, and then turned it back on. After my first…

PS Some of you know me on Candy Crush as Lives, Share Them To Get Them…🙋🏼‍♀️ I apologize to those of you who thought I was ignoring your requests for help with lives. I had serious malfunctions occur with this site over the past 3 days.

My experience has been that CCS turns off ads on weekends. I think they do it because they think we'll pay to play in order to get an extra bonus or win the weekly race. The newest change I've noticed is the 3 ads you can watch at the end. We use to get a sparkle ball / UFO booster if we watched all 3 ads. Now all they're…

My experience has been that CCS turns off ads on the weekends. I think they do it hoping we'll pay to play because we're trying to get a bonus or win the weekly race. The most recent change has been taking away the sparkle ball / UFO boosters we could get if we watched all 3 ads. Now they only want to give a few extra…
