    cognitive replied to the topic Clan chat deleted for profanity that wasn't profanity?! in the forum Angry Birds 2 Forum 3 years, 11 months ago

    My clan is entirely from my birth country and we use our own language. Used to get flagged a lot but has improved since.

    cognitive replied to the topic About the Angry Birds 2 Arena in the forum Angry Birds 2 Forum 3 years, 11 months ago

    Your opponent won partially because we’ve been playing for two and a half years and not one of us understands how points are awarded. It’s that simple.

    Just played one guy 2 minutes ago. Streak 1, me 395 and him 397. Last two birds we were tied at 15M each. He scored 9M off two birds, in rooms that are unlikely to offer that many points.

    Today’s 2 makes 15 of 25 pigs at level 2. That’s 60%. Average wise, counting the huge outlier it’s a 4.0, but without counting it, which any statistician would do, it’s abysmal. Standard deviation is an absurd 5 or more.

    I do, but it doesn’t change the fact that hitting a pig on 2 is running at 58% from 24 trials versus the expected 25%.

    Meaning, in 24 trials I should have uncovered 6 pigs total at level 2. I uncovered 14.

    I’ll continue to collect data and report, but Rovio must be thinking we’re totally clueless…

    cognitive replied to the topic Beware! Rovio banning honest players now in the forum Angry Birds 2 Forum 3 years, 11 months ago

    I’m going to reiterate. If Rovio’s saving all the player performance data, they know with a wee bit of analytics what any player earns in a day or week. Even week to week numbers are sufficient.

    One does not come up with 25000 BP’s overnight. Or in a week or month unless tower of fortune etc. I have 6000 BP’s and it has taken weeks, mostly…[Read more]

    cognitive replied to the topic New Update! in the forum Angry Birds 2 Forum 3 years, 11 months ago

    Yep.

    Scoring is commensurate with someone 2x the flock strength. And spells of course.

    The only word that comes to mind is “reprehensible”. They correct an issue that plagued players since summer and in typical Rovio incompetence screw up the code that displays flock strength a couple days later.

    Priceless.

    Perhaps if they would focus more on…[Read more]

    Interesting “bug”. When you click on someone to see their stats, what is reported is often nonsense. Like, everyone has flock strength 186 and yet put up 45M points in clan play…

    Bug or way to distort reality by not showing all the cheaters?

    Despite the opponent fix in arena, immortal pigs seem to be a lot more common now. But it’s manageable.

    cognitive replied to the topic New Update! in the forum Angry Birds 2 Forum 3 years, 12 months ago

    BTW, thanks to Rovio for fixing the arena matchups. I played two whole streaks yesterday and used 2 spells. All 14 opponents were within 5-6 FP of me. None but one was a miracle player scoring 6M points a bird and I was able to dispatch most of them by a fair margin without spells.  And only one instance of the Mystery Points Brigade and I still…[Read more]

    The thing is, we can’t prove that someone is a cheater. Rovio can.

    I assume they log all games, etc. If they do, they can trace back earnings. Someone who spends 175,000 BP’s to buy a fancy hat set oughta have a history record of winning BP’s a mile long. Likewise for rubies.

    What says you, Rovio ?

    cognitive replied to the topic New Update! in the forum Angry Birds 2 Forum 3 years, 12 months ago

    The clan battle is the best example ever of no luck in some aspects like bird order. In this sense it’s repeatable 100%. Yet my scores vary wildly say from 20M to 40M. Not only on me but on everyone in my clan.

    The thing that kills it is that the number of points needed to get an extra bird should depend on level. A cheater with flock strength of…[Read more]

    Two more data points for Tuesday and Wednesday… Both days pig on 2nd.

    To summarize, that’s 10 day sample:

    7 pigs in level 2

    2 pigs in level 3

    1 time went past 3

    I’ll continue to post every 2-3 days to 20 or 25 samples. But this is a travesty of probability theory if it stays like this.

    Rovio must have heard my complaining. Made it to 61 with 3 pigs following my “system”. Not a single pig to 30.

    Perhaps people would play the tower more if the rewards were better at lower levels, and the risks were not punitive at higher levels.

    Last week I made it to level 60 with maybe 5 pigs. 1 pig till level 30 which is pretty mingdboggling. I’ve only done this once before. Here are the Cliff’s Notes:

    1. Follow Cognitive’s time honored method for avoiding pigs (not kidding, it seems to work). PM for details :)
