yeh, it starts for me on Friday evening and usually ends Sunday night but for some reason this weekend i had it for an extra day 🥳, so I had until Monday which was perfect because I would’ve struggled to finish all 500 levels in 2 days, but I just managed it in 3 days and finished 1 hour before the event finished haha 😅

Nice! 😁

I have a question for you. Soda Race on weekend, which days do you have it? I have it only on Friday and Saturday.

Once again, I was unable to compete in the final round of the Soda Cup tournament due to a technical issue in my game (despite winning all of the qualifier rounds), which is the same problem I’ve had the last 3-4 soda cups. It’s really disheartening that they haven’t found a way to fix this yet, because this keeps happening to me and many others, and I spend a lot of time and effort building up my boosters throughout the year in preparation for these events so that I can have a good chance of winning.

So, instead of waiting around for the laughable ‘10 complimentary gold bars’ from king as their “apology” for not being able to fix the problem, I decided to take matters into my own hands and have my very own version of the Soda Cup by taking advantage of the much more reliable Soda Race event that runs on the weekend. I realised that if I can complete 500 levels and finish 1st in each and every soda race, then I’d win 15 gold bars for every 15 levels, which equates to a total of 500 gold bars (which is the same prize I was hoping to get from the official Soda Cup before it disappeared from my game). So that’s exactly what I set out to do!

Start

Finish

Altogether I won a total of 573 gold bars which is 73 gold bars MORE than the prize for winning the official Soda Cup, so I consider that a fairly decent consolation prize!

510 gold bars came from the 34 consecutive Soda Races I won (proof screenshots below), and the additional 63 gold bars came from all the Legendary Wonderballs I was awarded along the way via “Batula’s Treasure Hunt” and the “Win Streak”. Yippee!!!!!

So in summary… I created (AND WON!!!!) my very own Soda Cup because I was sick of being unfairly excluded for technical issues outside of my control, and i managed to win MORE gold bars than I would’ve won in the real Soda Cup 😂😂

TAKE THAT!! Ain’t nobody gonna break’a my stride 😉

Glad for no glitch 😁 Congratulations on your win. You had very tough competition there KC. I’d like to know how many levels did you play? 43k is very high number 😅 I’d have given up if someone get over 20k.

I got 17k from 80+ levels

Great work!!!

I was at my sister's house for a family Thanksgiving gathering. I helped her pass a level she's been stuck on for weeks. She paid me back by doing the clean up by herself so I did some cake baking.🤭

I usually have that too. Unfortunately, I can't use any of my boosters on the levels behind the door and often I had to play levels that didn't have any yellow candies at all. That was so frustrating for me that I made slow progress to save levels. Playing new levels from the map is more fun and they count towards many other activities as well.
Everyone may have a different strategy, but that was my strategy to be successful.

Omg, the difference in what was needed to win a Cup in the various leagues 😆 I've never been in a Qualifier round, in any Soda Cup, where less than 8-10,000+ was enough to stay in /secure 1st place. Which is why I just focus on being in Top3, not to win a Qualifier round. If I do, cool, but to qualify for next round is enough. The big battle is saved for the Finals.

My Finals have always required at least 13,000+ to win.

Congrats to all Soda Cup winners 🏆

Turns out the one in 2nd place in my league either couldn't play more in the past 12 hours, or simply gave up, so I could have saved myself some hours of sleep 🤣 .. but, not knowing, I didn't dare take the chance of going to bed with the lead I had at normal bedtime, with 8 hours to go, since he had previously caught up to me on day 2, playing in over 4500 points, whilst I slept. I recently lost 1st place in another contest with under 100 points whilst sleeping. Wasn't risking that for 500 GB!

You had both Soda Cup and Anniversary hunt? I got the blue 10 candy, but never the Hunt game, only the Cup. I never get the other collecting game, if I a Cup game becomes available for me, whether I make it through a Cup week or not.

Congrats of your win 😊

You don't have the door at the end? The door levels can be used for the Soda Cups.

Door levels don't count for collecting things for the other activities games, other than Rocket Race, which is super annoying, bc you can't collect for Reward's Pass, 4iaR or Shipmates, whilst playing door levels (3 or the only 4 activities games I have left).

I played Door levels over and over + the week's 45 new levels, to get my Cup win.

I also won the final, for the first time ever. This time I saved enough levels. In the previous challenges, I had run out of levels.

Hi @LoFiGummy thank you for the tag @Palash_Sarma

I have never tried winning a Soda finals before and wanted to give this one a go.

It was fierce competition to stay in the lead especially yesterday. Player 3 was my strongest competitor and had appeared from nowhere yesterday and rapidly gained 9,000 points with player 2 putting up a strong fight. At one stage both had overtaken me at which point (and apologies to @Kerrie, I know you have been busy baking slices my lovely, thank you) I stopped baking and just played levels as hard as I could.

I gained my lead back and was able to gain me enough ground to get some sleep (however I did wake 3 times to check my lead) I played 174 levels in 2 and a half days.

It was good to see that the player that was in third had made good ground to secure second.
