@Kelani, @Kathy -- I mean the fact that kelani's crazy score was 163,480 and his previous highscore was 143,480, exactly 20K below. So I wouldn't call that double count, I was thinking maybe game got confused, lost track of the score before bonus, and simply added 20K bonus to whatever was the previous highscore.

@kelani @Rat -- Posting scores from 2 different devices is OK, although you do lose the cross-check with the episode total. I did this when I switched from iPhone to iPad, because some of my older iPhone scores were higher. After a year or more, I decided to bring all my iPad scores up so the episode total would make sense. I don't think the admins ask for episode total, just screenshot of individual levels. There are a lot of opportunities for cheating on the leaderboards, including posting scores with PUs, which I think a lot of people do.
@fenikus, @kathy -- You do not need a facebook account to play AB Go, but if you don't have one, what you can do is limited and/or very expensive. I have a facebook account, and do use it to play AB Go. In the past, I could always beat the challenge "beat a friend's score" because none of my friends played AB Go. You can pass a challenge by paying in gems, which are exceedingly hard to come by in the game, and outrageously expensive to buy with real money. Right now the facebook connection on the regular tracks doesn't work; not sure how it will work when they fix it. Being signed into facebook does still give you double rewards for the daily challenge, but they cut the reward in half.
I do have a facebook account. Interestingly enough, I started it to play the first AB Facebook. I didn't like the game action, so stopped playing. Recently I've found that the facebook games are much improved. In the meantime, I decided that as long as I had a facebook account, I might as well have some real facebook friends. I don't use it much, but it does contain some personal info, including my real name and those of friends. -
@mvnla2 -- I don't have a Facebook account, nor twitter for that matter. Even though they can be put to great use, there is something about how most people use them that turns me off from them. I did create a Facebook account for one of the dogs I fostered a while back -- he had 6 brothers and sisters and all the fosters were communicating through Facebook, exchanging stories and advice. It was great for that purpose.

lol @Pa that's not nice. .poor @e-star will be googling dagnabit all day long!!
@mvnla2 I also have a FB account I don't really use it very much because i can't figure it out mostly and to many people connect to you even when you don't know them. it confuses me lol
but anyway if you want a new FB friend feel free to request me; ) mostly I play words with friends that also you Dont need an account for but is better if you do so everyone isnt 'zngywaf' haha -

Just to stop the confusion, here's all the BR "conflict scores".
#3 Danno820 - 110,150. Claimed 90k after 2 birds.He looked away during tally, then had 110k. He provided a post-reset screenshot, which suspiciously showed his power-up selector open. (What no-powerup player keeps that open?) As for 90k w/2 birds. That's impossible without power-ups. Even using them it'd be difficult. Rat's #2 score had 73k and all the top ten scores got 70-73k.
-There isn't 20k worth of debris left anywhere.
-Most of what IS left is out of play on the river bottom, or spread out.
-Even if 20k of debris existed and was in a single pile, It's mostly chain and stone. One YB wouldn't put a dent in it.
This is either a brand new super-rare glitch where scores magically jump 20k pre-tally, or just a powerup score.
#17 Kelani 163,480 Who knows? :) Score isn't posted. Inspector @fenikus will get to the bottom of it, I'm sure.
#19 Xanthippe 142,310 SImilar to my #17 glitch. She got 122,310 and 2 double-counted birds. For some reason I don't know, Slim let her keep 10k, instead of diallowing the score. That gave her a score 10 points under cfunkho's 1st.
#20 gramlord 203,070 Claimed 1-birder after marmosets spontaneously committed suicide. Nobody can replicate it. He suspects old ios version is the cause. No screenshot, but did ask an admin for approval to post the score before doing so. I saw no reply, and score is now posted. He also posted in Bugs forum about it. I don't believe an ios version could ever cause this. The game code is identical. Without a screenshot, I'm a bit suspicious, but my guess 50/50 this was an honest fluke.
If a screenshot appears for #20 I can live with that one. So I guess the only one I have a problem with is #3. -
@Kathy, level 7 is tough. You must be wondering: "How did he do it in just one fling? It looks so easy!" It was more like a 100 flings and videos shows only one ;)
Your 161K is not too shabby, I never repeated 165K -- the closest I got was 163K and anything over 160 is respectable. But to answer your cry for help, what's not going right? Can't get the metal beam to break or something else? -
@fenikus congrats on the #19! PLEASE say you learned some neat trick? :) I saw slim's reply from this morning. Haven't checked for any further ones.
@Kathy I did mention danno's #3 screenshot had the power-up window open. :) As for #19 cfunkho got that score 3 weeks ago. He credited a RatStrat®™ so it could be legit. However he hasn't posted a screenshot, and as usual, since the score's so close to the pack. nobody asked for one. btw, I know you can get a great score on 7. That video makes it easy. The total collapse isn't always a sure thing, though.
*returns to screaming creative obscenity combinations at Level 10* -
@kelani @fenikus I've enjoyed your banter while lurking in the shadows. I'm normally a night owl, but this new job has me waking up well before the crack of dawn and has really killed my fling time. I'll NEVER be a morning bird, but I can do it when I have to.
I'm sorry I've missed the latest celebrations. Happy Belated Birthday to e*! May this year bring you relief and a speedy return to good health! My pyro collection is anemic ATM so I'll have to make up for it somehow during a future BP celebration. -
@ABcrazy A bell just rung. Were you the guy who told me you were the resident BP pyrotechnic guy? If so, I did meet you awhile back. Posted some reply asking if you actually did know any pyrotechnics, or was it a virtual skill. I think i then rambled something about one of my homemade black powder recipes.

@Kelani, yes I figured out level 19. It's on metric system. Unless you get a good score on your first close encounter, it will only happen on 10th, 20th, etc. subsequent near hits. For me it happened on 10th. Read my track history in the walkthrough and add few more close calls to the count. Yes, I'm sure this theory is valid.
@ABcrazy, banter implies *friendly*…I wasn't being friendly to anyone!
