@papakarlo It doesn’t make sense to buy Spark Starter bundle because it’s a terrible deal. Eggspark (when offered) is a significantly better deal. Earning sparks through SR is also okay, but is a significant time-sink. I’ve purchased gems with REAL money on this game multiple times before, but I prefer to spend money wisely based on what I’m getting in return.

I don’t have any issues with the Eggspark bundle offered as a one-time-purchase option. I never bought more than a single Eggspark when offered and typically only get the 75,000 sparks/1,500 gem offer as it gives the most bang for the buck. I don’t even remember that there was a time when you can purchase it repeatedly. (Note: that seems to be the opposite of the Token Exchange because you used to be limited to purchase only a single/10 Gold/Steel crates, but now you can purchase them repeatedly! So, I’m not sure if your ‘crying‘ made R/E do the opposite!)

I’m not sure why you think I’m sitting on some “big stash of gems.” At one point, I had about 30K gems (see this post here). Then, I spent about 15K gems when the 3 Coneheads TFs came out to quickly accelerate my rank (see this post here). Now, I’m under 10K in gems (and a step closer towards ABTF retirement):

I actually don’t see the problem you are experiencing in the events on the daily scoreboard. Typically the top 3 are promoted to green-level, and purple is usually outside of the top 6. So, I don’t see any “cheaters” (which is a big assumption as you always seems to err towards a guilty verdict without any evidence) in my scoreboard. Perhaps, it’s possible you were flagged as a cheater and that’s why R/E grouped you with the other cheaters in the “cheater leaderboard” as exientgreg has pointed out before here.

I spend sparks where I see fit. Promoting the 1st TF in each squad is the highest priority, but promoting the 2nd TF benefits Sparkrun and 2 TF events. I don’t usually promote 3rd TF. So, the sparks I earned by doing SR are being spent (or as you call it, “disappears”), but I do like to keep a buffer of 100-200K sparks in case I need it. For example, this previous 2-TF event, I only had Beachcomber as Red Crown and Smokescreen at Gold Crown (~1200% total SR bonus), so I spent some sparks to get them up to 1570% SR bonus. That saved me many times to finish SR early and or even complete the SR in a single contiguous sitting, which frees up my time for other more fun things.
