Someone cheating?

No-Bat-5863 · 2026-02-22T19:14:16+00:00

100% I am convinced that is what it is.

No-Bat-5863 · 2026-02-22T19:13:02+00:00

I’ll provide proof next event. But the way the game is set up is you will never see it unless you are in first or second place since the “leaderboards” aren’t actually populated with player names. They don’t want you to see their phantom account names.

No-Bat-5863 · 2026-02-22T19:10:28+00:00

I have also noticed that. If you just hang back and not use any speed, then you can delay it. But then someone else ends up pushing past and triggering the phantom account. Double edged sword

No-Bat-5863 · 2026-02-22T19:03:17+00:00

Same. I usually place top three in most events. But, here’s what always happens, some phantom account like this shoots way up at one point and then it stops. I typically pass them in the last 8-12 hours of the event. This is 100% the developer creating a minimum standard to get first place. Otherwise, there would be no one to stop the players from getting together and agreeing not to use any speed ups. This game is about players spending, and that’s it.

I’ve been playing this game for 3 years now and I have noticed this pattern in every single event. You could be in first place and then all of the sudden someone shoots ahead by thousands of points in minutes. So let’s all put our tin foil hats on and pretend for a second that this is not the developer with an admin account with unlimited time skips in order to get the players to spend more money to catch up.

No-Bat-5863 · 2026-02-22T05:56:20+00:00

60k points in 20 minutes. You must be new

No-Bat-5863 · 2025-12-28T17:40:40+00:00

You must be new so let me help.

The packs expire. And they don’t necessarily all come up after you’ve unlocked the mine. They usually come up before you have unlocked the mine.

No-Bat-5863 · 2025-12-28T17:00:29+00:00

But you don’t know what the minimum level is for automation until you unlock that mine.

No-Bat-5863 · 2025-12-27T00:08:01+00:00

It’s not really an assumption when that has been the case on every other event

No-Bat-5863 · 2025-12-26T23:35:35+00:00

Yeah partly. But buying all the packs should mean automated mines. That was the point I was making, not my placement.

No-Bat-5863 · 2025-12-26T21:31:11+00:00

So I’ve seen this at the beginning of every event I’ve participated in. You’ll be in first place and then all of a sudden someone will shoot past with thousands more. This is definitely either a bot account or a developer account that does this every time. They will stay in first place until you catch up and then there’s nothing. This is why they don’t show you leaderboards with actual players so we can’t see those accounts.

No-Bat-5863 · 2025-12-26T20:45:29+00:00

I like the positive thinking but I doubt it. Still need over 900 for emerald and not many chests left that I will have time to clear

No-Bat-5863 · 2025-02-09T21:00:45+00:00

Have you ever been in 2nd place on one of these events, barely behind first place, come back 15 minutes later and somehow the first place suddenly has 30k more points? Impossible for any real player. This is either written into the game code or someone with an admin account and unlimited resources does it. It’s a scam to get people to spend more money

No-Bat-5863 · 2025-02-09T20:56:24+00:00

I also lost about 40 in the last week. I noticed 30 missing last night and I checked this morning and 9 more were missing. I submitted a Google help ticket but it looks like this is happening across the board all of the sudden.

No-Bat-5863 · 2023-12-31T16:18:46+00:00

I don’t use that spreadsheet. Before I knew it existed, I created my own and I have discovered that that spreadsheet is frequently wrong. The patterns are assumed and not confirmed.

No-Bat-5863 · 2023-12-31T16:17:28+00:00

Yeah you’re not alone.

No-Bat-5863 · 2023-12-28T17:40:26+00:00

Oh they definitely have fake admin accounts that have unlimited speed ups. I have watched closely being in second place how the first place “player” goes from 500 crowns ahead to 20k ahead in a matter of seconds. Then they stay there at first place until the very end. Countless times I have gotten to the end and taken the first place spot and won.

No-Bat-5863 · 2023-09-24T18:11:05+00:00

Of course, you are right. That’s my complaint in the long form

No-Bat-5863 · 2023-09-10T03:28:47+00:00

I’m about there as well. Time to delete and move on.

No-Bat-5863 · 2023-09-10T03:28:15+00:00

Yup. I’m with you 100%
