One last thing to all those who think Rovio is “rigging the game” or changing the difficulty. They aren’t. It is a PHYSICS game, which is why it fascinates me. It is harder some weeks because of which levels and structures are used, nothing more.

Each bird has exactly the same effect week to week as it did. Terrence doesn’t get weaker, blues don’t get more frequent as rewards, etc. You just have to learn your birds, and devise the proper strategy.

As to scoring (why am I giving away all my secrets? You’ll all just use this to beat me!)… your goal should not be to get all the pigs. Your goal should be TOTAL DESTRUCTION of every stone, plank, bubble and block. Points don’t come from killing pigs. Points come from decimation of the level, leaving it barren.

I generally win each arena level by a couple million points (often more), because I’m focusing more on the structures as opposed to the pigs. If you destroy the entire structure, the pigs are going to die with it…. and as you rack up those million-point rooms, you get way more extra birds, which make defeating an opponent far easier.

If you look carefully, rooms have the same structures in different arrangements. There are maybe 50 core structures, and a room may be “structure 42 next to structure 31”, etc… If you devise ways to ensure a structure not just falls over, but collapses or leaves the room entirely, it won’t matter what ROOM you get — you’ll focus on the structures *in* the room, and know which birds to use to get them.

When you get really good at knowing how to combine a bird into taking out two different structures (i.e. Matilda dropping her egg on an angled trampoline, so that the egg destroys one structure, while she flies up to knock over another, or learning that aiming for the BASE of fragile towers so that they fall to knock over other things), that’s when you’ll start to destroy the Arena.
