    Thanks for always doing this, gives me an idea of where I could be, and the event low down.

    Was surprised though, by the unexpected description, "mediocre"? Usually you have colorful adjectives that motivates one to win the baldest honking weapon commonly available! Plus, Assaults are your forte. So, why the diss?

    And a side note, a big thank you to all the iOS players for putting a hold on the latest update, I feel your pain, really.

    I used the term "mediocre" because that's exactly what they are LMAO

    Low end is not even close to the "magic number" ... Hi end barely surpasses it ...
    ... ASSAULTS are my favorite when they're a functional weapon. At this late stage it's best to wait for the TIER 32/33 variety. :cool: If we, in fact, have a TIER 32/33. LOL

    By Week #3 I'm looking forward to the next TIER; by the time you win one of these ...
    ... you might get 48 hours of effectiveness out of them ... maybe. :(

    Pure Trash Bro.

    RANK #1: 10,339 AP (HERO1) ... Another ZWIFT "New Jack" leads the way.
    RANK #2: 8,470 AP (HELPHOS) ... As steady as they come.
    RANK #3: 7,960 AP (LJCHILD) ... Right there.
    RANK #4: 7,935 AP (EBANDRE1) ... Competitive early on.
    RANK #5: 6,582 AP (TOMMIEBLAZE)

    RANK #30: 3,110 AP (VETRELECKVC)
    RANK #169: 1,034 AP (SCORPION) ... "Extended Target Practice" in in effect for the duration. :cool:

    A whole new cast of characters has joined the leaderboard; can they hold over the long haul?

    For The SCORPION, this is a "lame duck" event; a time to prepare for the next tier and CKS 6.0.

    Good Luck and Good Hunting !!!

    Was out late with the guys last night, so I'm still a little groggy ... but I had an epiphany. :)

    Good Morning Agents ...

    We're roughly 3 Days out from the TIER 32 release (5 Days from the Battle Cycle), so there's plenty of time remaining on the clock to finalize your upgrades and "put this puppy to sleep", so ...
    ... Let's Get It Done !!!

    I could be hallucinating (haven't had my morning "Jo" yet), but I could have sworn a former "banned" player came back as a "bot" ... like I said, I haven't had my coffee yet. :(

    That epiphany I mentioned ... I'll post some interesting statistics later on.

    KUDOS ... Good Luck and Good Hunting !!!

    Glancing at the scores, this much is certain ...
    ... the battles are tougher and many have not made an adjustment to their battle tactics ...
    ... any suspected "hacks" are fading fast; I suppose they just don't have the stomach for a REAL fight. :)

    I stopped my run for the simple fact the mods are back and took the fun out of the run. Glu needs to fix these issues end of story

    The TERMINAT3R won handily and stable-mate HERO1 was up for the place; RED1958 showed.

    I was wondering why you stopped since it looked as if you were trying to overtake the leaders. The top finisher has managed to "fly under the radar" for quite some time but rest assured I'll be tracking these more closely going forward. :cool:

    FYI I noticed an unusual "surge" over a 9 hour period (going into Event DAY #4) that looked suspect ...
    ... they can only run, but they can't hide ... forever. :)

    The mods users will be effected since the new method of buying golds already changed ?

    With the newly upgrade version.

    I guess I'm following, mods = hacked versions.

    From what I understand, the last update temporarily fixed/banned the people that downloaded these mods, but as a usual cat/mouse game, the hacked versions are back? Events going from 50k+ down to 30k, looked promising, but I guess GLU is having trouble staying ahead of the game.

    If this plain talk is not welcome because of possible influence, give me a heads up, and I'll delete it. (Obviously, don't reply with quote!)

    Glad Amazon is immune, so far... fingers crossed.

    30,000+ AP is definitely more in line with a norm that has lasted well over a year, but as I mentioned earlier, I did take notice of a "surge" at the start of Global Event DAY #4 that caught my attention.

    Each of the top 2 finishers (both belong to the same clan BTW) scored between 8,000-10,000 AP in a 9 hour stretch. While this is still less than 1 PvP Victory per minute (well within a "high rollers" ability), it IS dangerously close to crossing the line.

    That being said, a suspicion is NOT "proof" ... but I will be tracking these closely. :cool:

    When HANDLES was amongst us, when we would report these type of scoring trends; he claimed to investigate and came back stating they were "heavy spenders". Whether or not he was stating the truth, is open to debate ... I never had any reason to distrust HANDLES. :) ...

    ... except when he swore "bots" did NOT exist (he and I even had a "heated" exchange) ...
    ... so consider the source. LOL

    Open discussion regarding this, as well as anything else, is ALWAYS welcomed, in my opinion ...
    ... anyone who thinks otherwise is trying to "hide something".

    Yes scorpion that is why I stopped my attempt to keep top spot. I watch top 2 start at just over 5k and do over 25k in less than 48 hours which takes the fun out of the game. I strive myself to not use anything to enhance my game play. I've emailed glu time and time again about this and nothing ever happens. I'm on the verge of either leaving cks or asking all players to do a boycott of buying any gold until glu themselves solves this issue.
