    Neomerlinmagic started the topic Leaderboards: how do they work? in the forum Angry Birds Epic Forum 6 years, 8 months ago

    This is how the leaderboard currently works, as I understand it.
    1) Everyone has their own leaderboards.
    2) Everyone on your board also has you on their board, as said by @rovionefuah. But most, if not all, the other people on the two boards have no one else in common. Therefore, your position on their board doesn’t necessarily match with yours.…[Read more]

    @bubbley — I think the ghost has the same score as the real player, so no, I don’t think you would see 2 sets.
    @rovionefuah — Obviously I agree with @Larry 1000% (yes, one thousand : D ).

    @rovionefuah, Any chance you can let us know that you understand the frustrations on ghost players? We *think* we understand what Rovio intends the system to work like.

    We are all trying to relay to you (and Rovio) that there are side effects which are very very wrong.

    @rovionefuah — Thanks for checking it. I do understand it takes time to get answers.
    However, as the chief impatient person, what I’m looking for is some indication that you and Rovio understand why the “ghost” players are a problem, and that Rovio is actively trying to fix this problem. So far all you’ve said is that Rovio did this on purpose,…[Read more]

    @mimi27 I don’t know which league avatar frame that is, but odd to me that a cheater didn’t reach diamond, and the score is almost the same as a player i had last week.
    In beginning, out of nowhere score just over 100.000 and didn’t change for rest of the week.
    I agree this is messed up.

    @rovionefuah Not directed towards you personaly but really!
    I don’t even get why they started the second season straight away, with still cheaters, a backup mechanisme that puts ‘ghost/virtual’ players on different boards, later on also players who are in higher leagues in lower leagues. So another twelve weeks of flaud arena. Why??? FIX IT…[Read more]

    @rovionefuah I agree with all the other Nesters who play Epic’s PvP and have contributed to the discussion about the ghosts and other PvP issues. Basically the source of most of the grievances from the ghosts are that sometimes cheaters end up “ghosted”, and those ghosts end up in the lower leagues, which means that people would be upset dealing…[Read more]

    @rovionefuah — It would be really appreciated if you would leave a brief message indicating that Rovio understands that what is going on with the ghost players is a serious problem, and that Rovio is working on fixing the problem. So far everything from Rovio seems to say the creation of ghosts is intentional, and you haven’t bothered to figure o…[Read more]

    @rovionefuah @kerrAvon — Humm… I hadn’t been thinking the same way as KerrAvon, but his viewpoint is a possibility. I don’t understand why the fallback of creating ghosts would be implemented at all during the first few days of the week, unless a player was in a league by themself.
    I have been assuming that the reason ghosts appear in leagues…[Read more]

    @rovionefuah I think there needs to be a little more explanation around @mvnla2‘s ghosts.

    We have noticed players appearing in multiple leaderboards within the same league, which makes sense given your explanation of the fallback procedure to fill leaderboards.

    However, there are also cases where players have been found in multiple…[Read more]

    MVNLA2 replied to the topic From Rovio to Epic Fans: Cheaters and Leaderboards in the forum Angry Birds Epic Forum 6 years, 8 months ago

    @rovionefuah — The introduction of players (“ghosts”) on multiple boards is equivalent to cheating by Rovio, and could be stopped by deleting the ghost player after the first week, which is not happening. The “ghost” players frequently end up in the top 3 spots of the league, and prevent honest players from advancing. In my opinion Rovio’s…[Read more]

    @rovionefuah
    Setting a threshold on score is an effective way to stop cheating. The threshold can be 4-5x of daily objectives. Usually the cheaters’s score is “too good to be true” and average Joe is nearly impossible to achieve.
    Once the cheater reached the threshold, he/she will be banned to enter the tournament until the next one comes out.
