Blast Off – New Event! v2

[SnTrooper]

Just started twenty minutes ago and first place is already up over 61k and rising. They are a gold crown Blaster so I assume that their other character is a gold crown Soundwave since they seem to be averaging about 10k per run.

When Dead End was available, I skipped the container with 750 sparks and used the tokens and some gems to buy some accessories for him.

In that case, 750 sparks would cost 750 tokens, and I would have to spend 375 gems to get this container. Ther ratio is 1 gem = 2 sparks for this container.

In the spark run, If I choose an adequate difficulty, I can collect about 240 sparks with 100 gems spent. The ratio in this case would be 1 gem = 2,4 sparks. It would be better to invest in an extra spark run than obtaining that container with gems.

Just for reference, I have now 13k sparks (enough to promote a bot to 40%) and two full promoted bots: E-Gimlock and Soundwave. I’m holding on those sparks to promote a bot in an event that really matters, like the release of a new bot.

@sntrooper
Soundwave and Blaster/Soundblaster with gold crown – this is a combo! I’m glad I didn’t see such opponents in the previous event.

[datguygamer]

@ramonpontes Fair enough.

[Optimus_Pig]

Game just crashed mid-run.

There’s no way I’ll hit 38,000 points today.

But I’ll be damned if I spend gems to get there, especially since all I want are the sparks.

JARSU!

Don’t bother @optimuspig, total calculated points for two days event are about 3000, and for full sparks containers you need 2370 tokens. You are still ok if you get all tokens tomorrow and get at least 900 today ;)

P.S. Event still have 3 more hours, so at least 2 runs.

[The Dark Knight]

My GOD i am see the hell it self at my leaderbord ! Those numbers seems unreal to me!

[Optimus_Pig]

I think someone forgot to tell those guys that they only get 100 tokens for coming in #1

[Optimus_Pig]

@asen

I just finished my last natural run and I’m exactly one run out of maxing the Challenge.

Packing it in, going to get the rest of my tokens tomorrow.

JARSU!

@elpapam they are just stupid if they aren’t cheating. Given the leaderboard now shows your highest promoted bot rather than the last bot used player 2 and 3 can’t be using a gold crown bot with the x3 multiplier First may have 2 but still those scores are insane particularly given 4th hasn’t even broken 100k.

[SnTrooper]

Got a Unicron. Completely useless since I already got the 250 level, was well ahead of third, and would have to recharge three times to catch first’s 93k. But since it is only the second time I have seen him since the Chromia event I’m happy.

[Optimus_Pig]

Let’s do the math:

Just for fun, we’ll assume that they’re running Gold Crown promoted Soundwave AND Soundblaster.

So we’re talking (+105% + 105%) x 3 = +630% bonus

Let’s also assume that they’re not recharging at all, so a maximum of 27 natural runs / day.

Taking that score of 458,645 / 27 / 7.3 = 2,327 points / run pre-bonus.

So this guy is not only getting Unicron 27 times in a row, but he’s beating him most of the time using a couple of the most useless TFs against him.

—————-

Now let’s assume that he’s not getting Unicron at all, but a more reasonable score per run of say 831 points which is what I got today. So in order to reach 458,645 with a +630% bonus, this player would require a whopping 76 runs! Which works out to 13 recharges.

13 recharges = 10+20+40+60+80+100+100+100+100+100+100+100+100 = 1,010 gems!

—————-

Or someone at Rovio Central forgot to turn off the bots today.

[The Dark Knight]

I got sic the Spark system the bots and those silly events! Bots can’t be humans with what mind are you gonna waste 1000 gems on recharges? Why give me a good reason? There isn’t any reason to do this the award isn’t any new bot or something even more special so why?

This also proves the bots are here and they all tricking us!

[Asen_77]

@elpapam Mine question is – ok someone is crazy enough to go true all that scenario and spend this amount of Gems. I just want to ask what are other two doing? 326k and 246k are totally insane too. This could only be done with cheat or hack. I would say – they are just trying to see where they can get. How. Much point they can earn or …. I don’t know what … This is not normal.

Last day I finished 3-rd and get additional 60 tokens from daily event. At my board first was with 78k three hours before ends when I go to sleep.

[Asen_77]

Rovio rules ??? JARSU never ends ?

[The Dark Knight]

@asen JARSU for ever!

[Joel]

@asen – Thanks for posting the pic. I saw this mentioned in another thread. At least we kinda know what is coming next. Can you check Optimus in the barracks and see if they have accessories on sale yet?

Plus, shocker, they screwed up the dates. The EST date should be one day before UTC

JARSU! (I love the fact that this is multiple screw-ups all in one package)

[Optimus_Pig]

@joel687

Not to mention that we’re now on EDT not EST.

[Optimus_Pig]

@elpapam

Have you sent that pic to Rovio support?

Time to get some players banned.

[Asen_77]

Today 250 tokens are at 36 000 points.

[SnTrooper]

Looking at the end time of the next event (The UTC since the Eastern time is screwed up) it looks like it will be another three day event. But to be that there will have to be a day off between events which they haven’t been doing lately. This might mean they JARSUed the end date for this Blast Off event and it will actually be a three day event not two. I guess we will find out in nine hours.

[datguygamer]

Got my sparks and thus I can breathe a sigh of relief.

[Asen_77]

If they going to add aditional day for that event, we could collect some tokens for som of Blaster accessories.

[Optimus_Pig]

I would have actually been willing to spend a few gems to top up my purchase of one of Blaster’s accessories, but after the game crashed on me late on Day 1 and made me miss the 250 level in the Challenge, I no longer feel inclined to do so.

So the irony is that a JARSU is what’s stopping me from spending gems, which is what Rovio desperately wants us to do.

[The Dark Knight]

@optimuspig Well i have many not just that one and all the users are the same and not only from this event but and from previous i can upload them here if you like.

And sending them the images? I have tried in the past when the first bronze crown day one without been the sparks released fro exchange via tokens/gems yet and was already bronze crown remember me telling that? I have posted here a photo…

But even i send those image nothing happened. this player is still playing the events end i have seen him many times in my leader borders.

On the official ABT facebook page, their newest post says:

The Token exchange will remain open until:

2017-04-02 0:00 UTC
2017-04-01 19:00 EST

They can’t even get their dates right!

JARSU!!
