Hi @LaraDeen šø First of all everyone is welcomed to the forum and youāre not the only ticket buyer in here. I can speak only for myself but as a free player I donāt like the buying ticket system, if TS didnāt exist it wouldnāt be a problem but when someone buys a ticket it affects my game, so many times I was 1st and then a ticket buyer submitted more looks and take the 1st place I deserved or like this week I got kicked out of top 5. The problem is that in TS money wins over good looks, this system is unfair and Iāll always be against it.Ā But no hate for you, this is my point of view but I think everyone should do what they want with their moneyāš¼
My only thing is that yes i buy tickets but if the system werent this way i wouldn't need to id fairly be top 5 most of the time. I feel like its a race to buy the tickets and theres not ever a gurantee like some of the ppl on this thread showed 2000 plus point battles. Its kind of obnoxious and frustrating.Ā
@LaraDeen hi! So glad you joined us. I remember being a silent reader on the forum and then finally joining (albeit to complainš but now I love the forum!). It's been a wild and fun ride. I want to tell you that my personal problem with ticket buyers is the fact that sometimes, an hour in the event, you find people with 600+ votes which is incredibly disheartening.. And then you're grouped with 5 other TBs and then you lose all hopes in getting top 5... So that's mainly my problem with the system, it's unfair sometimes. However, and again in my opinion, if somebody buys tickets because they like the prizes and then submit a couple extra looks to get into top five, I'd probably be fine with it because I'd personally do it if I really want something and I have money to spend. It's just the excessiveness and unfairness that's tiring.
That being said, I really hope you stay with usš and don't ever be shy to participate or submit extra looks and show us how you're doing in the SYS! š„° I am glad you're here and I hope others join this forum tooš
@LaraDeen you donāt have to excuse yourself from buying something the game is legitimately providing you! TB are annoying but at the end of the day, Glu made that system and youāre only running with it by doing whatever you want with your real money. Please feel welcome on the forum and share your looks, there is a lot of people on there who occasionally buy tickets and theyāre welcome to post, everyone is! Itās your personal choice if you want to buy tickets to get the items you want, be a free player or buy tickets occasionally, and a game or people who play it shouldnāt let you feel ashamed of yourself
To respond to your question about why so many people are vocal about the TB, I can only speak for myself: I donāt hate them because like I said, theyāre only using what Glu is providingĀ them and itās not my business what theyāre doing with their real money. The TB I find really annoying are the ones who arenāt even in top 5 and in the last minutes of the SYS, they snatch away 1st place from you by submitting extra tickets. Itās just really frustrating when youāre 1st the whole event and then someone steals it from you, because you were hoping to stay in 1st and get the item you like. Although, I cannot say I hate TB, itās just really disappointing because Iām a free player and I rarely get in 1st place because of TB, even though Iām scoring great and play this game since December 2014
Butterfly crown is cute, think itāll come in handy for certain events. Plus itās the first separate accessory Iāve got as I havenāt got round to buying any yet.
Who hoo! 4th place, after being in sixth for most of the competition! Managed to overtake a ticket buyer as well who started off in lead! š
iOS player...used to play when the game first came out!! Flash forward about five different dolls and here we are. PlayingĀ this doll since January 2020, and doubt Iāll be changing again! (Unless I quit because sys is a joke and Iām really starting to loose the fun in this game āš¼ā)
My trendsetter group was crazy as you can see. I didn't use any tickets, last two hours I dropped a place because of a that scored better than me the whole time. I am pretty positive 3rd was a tb too but I am not sure.Ā I am happy with my crown anyways ā¤ļø
20 year old from Turkey & Android Player Striking untill they give everyone 20 videos a day
Happy I stayed in the top 5 since I had at least 3 TB in my group, wasnāt a fan of the dress so I kept the tickets Simon gave us š
So glad these items were earnables, Iām in love with this dress and how it dyes in certain colours! My doll reminds me of a tango dancer, even though the dress doesnāt really look like the ones they wear ššš» The hair is nice but not a big fan of it, we have plenty of ponytails
This butterfly crown is amazing, I feel like Iām in a fairytale š¦āØ
Hi you guys congratulations for all the winner of this SYS. I really want to get involved in the forum but before that I want to come clean. The more I read the forum and checkin out the SYS thread for inspiration the more I realize that buying tickets is frowned upon..Ā
Before, when I started playing on my first SYS I came on 13th place cos I didnāt know what it was.. I couldnāt care less cos at first I thought it didnāt affect to the main story in the game.. The second SYS I stumbled upon this forum when I was looking for something and found the SYS thread and it was like āoh this is how you play, you compete with other players, this looks funā of course I didnāt win at that time too. I had no clue how to style my doll and all of the dolls in the voting booth looks gorgeous. I donāt have beautiful dresses and hair and makeup from the past events like you guys have then I started to buy expensive clothes from Kollection and any other events and buy makeup, using real money.. and I wanted to win the prize and then I think oh I could win the prize by buying more tickets for extra looks, cos the tickets price are so cheap compared to the stars. Buying stars is more expensive than buying tickets but then I know and I realize you guys hate ticket buyers so I suddenly feel bad. I decided to join the forum so you guys knows me personally and I know you.. So I tried to submit my styles even tho I buy tickets to win the SYS I still submit looks according to the themes (then the drama happened).
I still want to be in the forum and submit my styles but I guess people already hate me cos I buy expensive makeup and buy tickets to win. Should I not buy tickets and buy Kollection? Cos it seems the free player have a high pride in this forum.. I feel like I donāt belong here.Ā
If you ever reading this message then you know a glimpse of what the tickets buyers thinking. I just want an insight of what it feels like for you guys having a ticket buyers in your group and what you donāt like about it. If I know what you guys think then I wonāt buy extra tickets anymore and start to play it fair..
Hey doll, welcome to the forum! Some people can get a bit bitter on here when it comes to ticket buyers. Without ticket buyers though, we wouldn't even have a game to play!Ā
There was speculation not too long ago about the game ending as it's contract with Kim was coming to an end, but they renewed it! I don't think they would have renewed it if so many people didn't spend real money on the game.Ā
You're not doing anything wrong or unfair, enjoy your game and welcome to the forum š
Finished 2nd, behind 1 TB in my group - so Iām happy. I liked the dress but Iām saving my tickets from Simon just in case there is something more amazing...
I came third this week and Iām always happy to end in top 5 but this week I missed a ticket and it looks like I could have won if I couldāve submitted it!Ā
But still loving my butterfly crown either way and now I finally have 5 opal dyes so I can use them on a dress š
9-14 I went to bed and I was in 1st but I knew it wouldn't last, there was a TB that kept submitting looks everytime I did. She only got me by 2 points, wish it was atleast a tie. I totally would have used one of my free tickets but SYS ends at 3am here lol. I don't even care that she bought tickets, what sucks most is she wore most looks all black clothing. Oh well, I didn't get lucky for the dress but the crown is very pretty!
I am a free player so I don't buy anything in the game but even if i did i would never buy tickets. It's called trendsetters and I don't find it right to buy your victory at the expense of people who are committed to creating their own looks. You should win because you deserve it, not because you have the biggest wallet
So happy to have finished this SYS (just! I had 579 votes), especially after my awful start. Really happy I scored 52 on one look as I rarely get over 50! Gutted to have come in 7th place though, especially as Iād been top 5 most of the weekend. I recon some of the dolls used their extra tickets from last week so fair play to them. I still wish I got the butterfly crown tho
Congrats to all the dolls who got top 5, you all look stunning!
Like I understand ticket buying is a big part of the game and what keeps it alive, and I have no issues buying them if I really want something. I mean the only time I won without it was when literally the first place prize was undesirable š most mobile games winning events is very pay 2 win, I play this other game where first place literally ends up costing hundreds of dollars, so this is very tame in comparison.Ā
However, I had the worst weekend event. I had to submit 6!!!! Tickets to even be in top 5. I always buy triple threat so I had a decent stash, but damn. I really wanted the butterfly crown so I was gonna get it, but I just wish there was a cap on points at least. Like even 1500 which is a ridiculous amount, but at least you have a guaranteed prize. There were so many people at over 1000 points and some ended up with nothing which in the end I donāt feel is a very good business model. If you pay and still get nothing out of it, why would you pay again? š¤·š»āāļø
First of all, this game would survive with or without ticket buyers. Itās been up and running without the ticket buying system for the majority of its existence. Iāve been playing since the very beginning so I know how the original SYS worked, which was without ticket buying and a lot more fun, fair and stress free. Secondly, I donāt have a problem with ticket buyers, my issue is being lumped into a group with excessive buyers (and bots) i.e. the 2000 plus scores are ridiculous in my opinion. To anyone and everyone on the forum, you can do whatever you want with your money, I donāt care, Iām not checking for your bank account. However, I donāt want to be placed in a TS group with those players. Btw, this was the final scoreboard for this event:
Iām not āticket buyingā shaming because I donāt believe that these are legitimate players (their looks were NOT even remotely on theme either). As Ms. Jenner was said:
IM SOOO HAPPY!!! After 2 weeks of sucking on SYS/TS, im back at being 1st on my group!!!

@LaraDeen absolutely not! We just hate ticket buyers who show up wearing the clothes you practically get for free, or ticket buyers who just put on the first thing in their closet. If you follow the theme and buy tickets, itās completely okay! After all, the ticket buying feature is there. Itās YOUR money, but itās just frustrating when ticket buyers wear horrible outfits. As far as I can tell, youāre buying good clothes, along with tickets, which means youāre putting effort into your looks, following the theme, and being stunning! Your the GOOD kind of ticket buyer! Welcome to the forum by the way! š„°
First of all thank you guys for replying me and voicing out your opinion or concern about TS system and buying tickets. I really appreciate it.Ā
I talked about this not because I want more drama I just want to know what it feels like to be in your position as a free player and long time player (something that I couldnāt get the gist of it before) I summarized:Ā 1. Some of you guys have no problem with ticket buyers but itās just very annoying when they steal the the rank at the last minute. 2. The other group completely against it because you should win based on your looks not because you can afford to buy tickets. I will try to play it fair next time even tho I guess I never in the same group with you guys, but if I do let me know then I will tone down my ticket purchases, my name on the game is the same as my forum id. As for me Iāll be honest with you, Iāll probably still buying tickets in the future. Because I know (this is the hard truth for me too lol) I couldnāt win if Iām not submitting extra tickets and probably never will. Like I said before I donāt have many beautiful dresses like you guys have from the past events, my dress just basic from the closet and some from Kollection. I want to win all the dresses so I have beautiful dresses in my closet (in order to win the SYS) I know I should be more patient and just playing from time to time to get into your level eventually but I guess Iām a person who wants to just get done with it quickly. Iām still in the phase of overly excited about anything this game has to offered. If they offer me something new I immediately buy lol, like you know the first few months you date someone new. I will get over that phase soon I hope, and after that I will get to feel like you as a long time player and maybe start complaining about ticket buyers too lol. So overall for now, please welcome me as a new member, I will always being honest to you as a ticket buyer and if you happen to be in my group please notify me so I wonāt buy extra tickets and we can play fairly and enjoy the contest.
@LaraDeen welcome to the forum ! š You really donāt have to excuse yourself, but itās nice of you to clarify things at the beginning š I think a few of us on here also buy some tickets, not excessive, especially the triple thread, but still... itās no crime in my opinion... š¤·āāļø
@LaraDeen if you like an item and you need to buy tickets donāt let anyone tell you no! Like honestly if I didnāt still have 20 stars a day Iād make ticket purchases in the game and totally be a ticket sniper in the last few minutesš Like even if youāre with a forum doll, they have the same access to purchase tickets as you do so you shouldnāt have to limit yourself.Ā
People hate tickets when 1) They get no fair shot to play from day 1 or 2) Theyāve been in first the entire time and someone submits a bunch and overtakes on the last day. Thatās just rude and heartbreaking. Lately thatās been the case for me, to the point Iād need 6-12 tickets to get my spot back. Thatās not ok.
