 That's good thinking!

We cannot be sure everybody makes this deduction though. As we cannot be sure everybody plays this game in a straightforward and logical way.

Moreover there are also different reasons for high scores. If you are able to win River 16 you can farm items through Silver Boxes. It might be that someone is trying to get 3 star or 4 star items just to level up some cards. Before you know it, you are above the 2000 mojo. It used to cost around 300k gold (60 boxes) to do that, but I think they nerved the Silver boxes a bit regarding the energy you get. As I wrote before: this is a very bad development for the new players under us.

And winning tournaments seems to be a goal by itself, since it's the only real live action of this game. Then just because it's easier to get higher scores, ppl will do it.

The only way to avoid a bunch of people (more then 3) to go to crazy scores is to go yourself to a high score early in the day. That way everybody will know that going to a high score is the only way to win that day and back off. That's what I do if I see one guy at 9 am at 3000 points. But when 2 or 3 ppl are at 1400 or 1600 at 9 am, everybody seems to think that close to reset they will be able to 'snipe' the 3rd place with 1605 mojo, so they all start to move near to the 4th spot. As a result we see 5 ppl with 2600 mojo at midnight and a 'winning' score of >3000, with some guys left out of the top 3. It makes you wonder if ppl actually think this through.



Since there is no 'stealth mode' in this game there is no 'sniping'. Everybody can see it when you move up to 4th spot (duh), especially just before the reset, so you really have to be backed up with a lot of gold boxes and gold to be sure. This 'sniping' reminds me of a mouse that thinks if it doesn't move, nobody will see him, while just sitting there in clear daylight...









I like the transparent approach. I just move to >2000 mojos early in the day so everybody knows what I'm up to. If some other guys are already there I back off because that's the smart way to act if you are going for the long run. There's always tomorrow and a very good thing in this game is patience and saving resources.

Thinking about it again, this might actually give some ppl a chance to win today in 2nd or 3rd place with 1200 mojo. I'll know it tonight...
