Okay, here is the info I withheld from my previous post.
I debated posting this information from the desire to create fair leagues and keep the cheaters out. Please do not use this or the previously mentioned method if you plan on cheating. As @larry mentioned earlier (and I can vouch for from personal experience), you would have more fun playing against other cheaters in an exciting high paced action filled run for super high scores than in a game where it was too easy. That being said, I can’t control what you do but I hope you make a decision that allows others who wish to continue to enjoy the game to do so.
I originally stumbled on the concept mentioned earlier when I began a new game. I wasn’t far enough into the game to join the arena until late Thursday. I thought for sure I would be really behind since others would have had days to beef up their scores. However Rovio is really good about trying to keep the game fair by not joining you to a game where you would have the handicapped disadvantage. Soon I began to see others join my league, none of which had scores that indicated they had played earlier in the week.
It would appear that, by design, you can only join a league where you and the other players have an equal and fair chance at arriving at the same score. (assuming no other cheating methods of course) I decided to test this logic on my level 41 game, in the gold league, to see if the same rules applied to the higher levels. I waited longer than 24 hours before checking my scores so that I would loose an entire day’s worth of playing in the arena. I figured at worst I could reset my scores 1 time to catch up, but as it turns out my league creation theory was correct. However in this case not a single other gold league player was willing to loose an entire day’s worth of scores. Therefore Rovio had no choice but to fairly place me into a league containing all players with a 1 day handicap. Also now that 2 days have passed no other players can join my league as that would be unfair to them.
Thus I have a league all to myself while adhering to the proper rules of fair game play. I’ll admit that while not as entertaining as playing with others, I have discovered a method to guarantee my way to the diamond league without fighting against cheaters, (or any competition for that matter). Naturally now that I have posted the method here I expect that I may have some company next week. Looking forward to seeing any of you in my leagues. Or perhaps I’ll wait 2 days before starting a league next time. ;-) Perhaps we can have 3 people in our league and compete while still all advancing.
My apologies if the admins feel this is cheating, I don’t agree. I’m just tired of having to deal with the cheaters and this method gets me away from them. I felt I had a responsibility to share.
