Right now I can’t even access the arena, Kedik.
As somebody else pointed out before, we are not playing against live people, we are playing against previous games and players and their scores. There are a limited number of stored games and players, so it would be possible to use that info. But it doesn’t work when tr …
What the heck? Been trying to claim my 150 gems for 45 minutes now but kept saying couldn’t connect. The suddenly it connects and I get 300 gems.
Anyway, Rovio stores games from certain players and you play against those stored games, not live opponents. But it doesn’t work with the streak because the stored games and players will be thrown against us to prevent a winning streak most of the time, or maybe just randomly. Haven’t figured that out yet. Sometimes if I start with players with no spells that is what I get through the streak, but if I accept a player with even one spell I get more players with more spells. Good Lord forbid I use any because then the flood gates open up.
Still trying to get my head around it and come up with constructive ideas. My most constructive idea is to ban spells from the arena, but that would mean Rovio would not get the money from people buying spells to win the streak. And that makes no sense. But there must be a way to deal with hacks and cheaters.
Then again, I was in 2nd place against a hack and wound up getting 300 gems. They are up to something at Rovio and it is not all about supporting hacks. Hope next update shows more improvement. I still have the attitude of my topic of Get a Grip, though I do see and share much of the frustration and aggravation. I guess I just see more of the integrity of people at Rovio, Mr. Bankler and Mr. Hank. Sure, they want the company to profit and keep their jobs, but that also means people enjoying and playing the games.
