Yes I wanted to make a random post. Event ended about 15 seconds ago, I finished with 25 personally :P

Feels like that's a top 500. If not then...oh well :P


Scratcher time :D

Thank God it's over. It's been draining!

Ps 25 is enough, re start your app and it will show the prize

Me too. But by closing the leader boards early, they can now claim that the top 500 went from 23 to more than 25 in the final 45 minutes, even though it took nearly a week to get to a top 500 cut off of 23. You know, as Funzio would claim, thanks to "some really big spenders." So we could get screwed out of the reward anyways. I call that getting "Funzioed."

Started 2 days late and got 20. Meh.

That's still good I started on time and I struggled for 25 ._.'


25 chips at level 113 is good for 467th place :)

I was awarded the prize at level 80 with 25 chips.. 491st place.. so there likely wasn't anyone below 25 chips awarded the prize (or very few)

If it's the same with all the other event items, it should. The way it stacks will be defined correctly by the devs hopefully, because there's 2 ways I can work it out.


3 places above me :p

Your sig says 25. How many did you finish with?

Even with the money grab I knew that to avoid the level tie breaker I'd need to get 1 higher than the cutoff, and it seems I was right and just barely squeaked by :P

Noticing the same thing. Just tested by upgrading a building thinking the faster upgrade may be hidden but the upgrade did not show a quicker upgrade or reduced upgrade time.

First win on an event. I'm satisfied :) Finally I feel like I have a ante in the poker game of the bigger players :D


@Jihy, I tested it by checking the proposed upgrade time, did you go through with the upgrade or did you just check the proposed time?

I went through with the upgrade. I have the loaded dice so i'm assuming that the street demon does not stack with the loaded dice.

380th with 25 chips. Cash only, no gold used. If 25 was the cut off - and seeing someone come in 491st implies that it was - I have a hard time believing that so many people either got so lucky or spent so much gold during the last 45 minutes to push the cut off from 23 to 25, but whatever. I got lucky this time and still won't spend gold during this event format, especially with these last minute machinations.

EDIT: It doesn't stack???? What BS. I already have the loaded dice, but what about people that could have spent gold to get the added bonus to stack with them? That's ridiculous.

What level are you? Because I was over 100 places behind you at level 113 with 25 chips O.o

25 chips at level 113 is good for 467th place :)

25 chips at level 65 was good for 404th place.

Someone in a different thread reckons they got 491st place with 25 chips at level 80.

I can't see the logic!

The only thing I can piece together is that if there was a tie then maybe it randomly picked players. Honestly who knows. That's just strange, and I thought somebody said in a post somewhere that the tiebreaker was done by level O.o

Fredo

Pawn - I'm more than 10 levels lower than you, so it seems that the "higher level determines a tie" line by Funzio is again a bit of crap.

How many attempts were you guys averaging a day (for those who used middle option and placed in top 500)? I ended up with 16 using the cash option and maybe 15 attempts a day. Also started the event 16 hours late :( , idk if that would have netted me 9 chips though lol. Was tempted to use gold...but figured whatever I'd have to spend to catch up would be better spent on crates.

I did between 15 and 18 a day and got 27 with just cash only rank 231 out of 500

I ended on 20 chips. :'( Disappointed but I got a well deserved Kingpin Killer. I was dedicated to opening but I was so tired that I passed out at night times and could not be woken up by any alarm. I also went partying with females on Saturday to give me a break from chasing pixels. Oh well. No doubt people with speed demon and knuckles will come back to haunt me just like black widow, golden defence and pretty much all top event prizes. :P
At least I didn't have to spend any real money for my Kingpin Killer achievement.

For future reference, note to self, as quite a dedicated free player, I only managed 20 chips right at the last opening I did. Serious.

Got 19 Chips and a whole bunch of bullsh1t. Even free players were getting more Chips then me, this suxx. As i allrdy said, i wont spend any Gold for further events now.

25 chips for me in the end. Total surprise, but I sacked some TJ gold, 120 total, to get it done. I was in the top 500 the entire event until the last day, and that includes being bricked for the last two days. I was at 20 chips and fell two behind, and then my tears made my beer too salty so I decided to just use my Tapjoy gold (14 left, 1 bar shy of one last attempt in the final hour). Lol :cool:

Super lucky, my gold opens gave me another 4 chips, and my final attempt with cash got me another chip, the first I received for cash in over 24 hours.

This modifier HAD GODDAM BETTER stack with my Loaded Dice! I won't know for a few days though, I started a long upgrade yesterday (Wednesday), so I won't find out until Monday I think. Maybe Sunday, I don't know.. I'm so burned out from this event and all the beers I needed to be able to tolerate it, I haven't calculated any upgrade times.

I do know from when I got the Loaded Dice though, whatever upgrade you already have in progress will continue as normal and finish at the already set time. Receiving the modifier will not modify any activity already in progress.

Edit: same as The Billionaire, that scratcher only gave me another Viking Blade. Garbage, but it's not cash or RP so at least it wasn't tash that I can earn while taking a dump.

How do you mean? What reports?

No current upgrade will have any time deducted, so if anyone who received the "bonus" already has a building being upgraded, they will have to wait until the next time they start an upgrade before they notice a difference.

The exact same situation occurred back in April when the Loaded Dice (buildings upgrade 25% faster) was an event prize. I really don't want to go STF, I am too drunk and it's already... Damn, 5AM!

But anyways, as I have mentioned a few times, I learn from experience (and history). In the case of faster upgrade times, I learned three months ago that the modifier will not affect current upgrades, but it will take effect when the next upgrade is started.

That being said, you could be entirely correct. I already owned the Bank Buster when I won the Black Widow Shotgun, and the delay in receiving the BWS was, allegedly, due to an "oops" with the way the +100 attack skill worked. Personally, I think they nerfed the value of skill points when they "fixed" the situation before awarding the prize, but personal beliefs aside, the modifier did still eventually get implemented.

Slightly different situations though, since any modifier involving time reduction has always been instantly visible, but those are the best examples based on experience that I can provide.
