Hello Everyone,
We have spent time analyzing the results from the game contest Big Money Coins, especially because so many high scores came in near or in one case actually at contest close time of 9:00PM.
This game only takes five minutes to complete so if timed properly and a little lucky it is not impossible to have the game end at contest close.
The highest score is quite ahead of the general high scores of the other players but again this score is attainable in our tests if the player is a very talented gamer, as some of our testers are.
In the final analysis we feel that probably one of the top three high scores has been manipulated, but we can not be 100% sure which one.
The only perfect solution is to remove all three high scores.
But rather than keep an honest player from their justified winnings we will do the lesser of the two evils and pay all three high scores.
I can assure you we are in the immediate process of reworking all the coding of submission of game scores to try and eliminate any possibility of manipulating our games.
First Place $ 100.00 - pattz - Score 10533 - 30 Dec 2007 - 08:54pm
Second PLace $50.00 - petacz1 - Score 9972 - 30 Dec 2007 - 9:00pm
Third Place $25.00 - johnny5 - Score 9962 - 30 Dec 2007 - 07:46pm
