Ah cheaters, every game has them. When I first started, it was the crab monster pig event (gosh I miss that monster, I think that crab was, by far, the best-looking monster).

I had a blast. It was such a fun game, getting item drop after fights (yes, you could get items after fights), and I was saving money to buy the best item in the shop (yes, each island had its unique item shop), this was before the stupid GG point system.

But then waiting for refill was too painful, so I started to explore “cheats”.

#1. downloaded apk from the internet, this was a stupid move, because yes, the apk gave me unlimited everything, but it was stupid to not know how easy it was for Rovio to track players with crazy amount of coins and crazy amount of tickets. This was an account ban.

#2. playing around with the timer was kind of fun, and I think Rovio also caught onto this scam. I got banned once, and I got score-reset once.

#3. going offline after fights in arena, this was a well-known bug but Rovio quickly caught up too. I got banned once, and I got score-reset once.

I re-started the game many many times, not because of account banned, but just to test other “theories” of mine. I didn’t cheat to get on the top score board, I guess I just wanted to see “what was available”. I must have restarted the game more than 20 times since the Mermaid Island.

The game becomes boring every time after I obtain all SS items for my birds. There is no point for me to continue, so I just restart the game all over again. It’s much more fun to play at low levels.

They keep giving out piggie lab items in arena, and piggies in monster pig events. I have no use for them, because this game is so item dependent. I can easily win 90% of times with appearance-increase items. So I seldom play in arena and monster event.

So far, what I can’t figure out is that, how do those players, whom I assume are better cheaters, stay at the top….. I’m talking about the ones who always get super crazy scores within the first few hours of events. Maybe they really are such good players, but……… I doubt it.

Remember that Vorland guy? That was quite a controversy. I’m pretty sure Rovio was paying attention to him, but there wasn’t enough evidence to ban that guy. Maybe he’s still around, just under different userID. Maybe he’s one of the top ten players with a crazy event score.
