hi, i'm not sure this is something you can do anything about, but there are a big bunch of cheaters in the top 100. some of them have 100-200K average (!) scores for each questions they had, there is a guy who completed the 60 levels in about 3 hrs (!!!), and there is a good bunch of people who have 1000 mins average answer time (hehe). It's obviously a flash injection, but you could be curious about getting rid of them. i will be curious in the meantime about how safe my data is at you if your flash is so flawed.
please look into it and let me know the outcome.

cheaters in the top 100 -and security

Hi!
Thanks for reporting. We actually have some bugs with our leaderboard statistics system, so most (if not all) of the strange results in the leaderboard come from that, rather than cheating. We haven't had a chance to yet figure out exactly what causes the problems. But the level and number of points should be correct for everyone.
As for Flash injection, we're actually not using Flash at all, and have done our best to stop other SQL injections in our JavaScript. We definitely take all security issues very seriously. Please don't hesitate to let us know if you find (or hear about) any security flaws in our code, or other ways to cheat.
Thanks! -

1So you are saying lvl 60 with 212M points within 4 hours is not cheating? :D
Who are we kidding?-

Hi again!
(First, sorry for the delayed response.)
We believe that our "time played" reporting is buggy, so the lvl 60 player in question actually spent a lot more time playing than 4 hours. Our developers will be back from vacation next week, and we hope to be able to find some time to look into these bugs soon. (Unfortunately we're a small development team, and have a lot of items on our todo list.)
Again, sorry for the trouble and inconvenience this causes. -

seriously are you 10? it's just a game, not like you're winning anything. It's a game, not the end of the world.

It's very important for us to deal with cheaters, but it's hard to with certainty determine exactly if someone is cheating or not. The 276 streak could have been achieved when we had a lot fewer questions, then it was fairly easy to get a high streak just by quickly learning the questions in our database.
Again, we're very sorry for any inconvenience this causes. Once we've figured out the bugs in our statistics module, it will hopefully be easier to identify any actual cheaters. -

I’m
sick
why should anyone play a game u have no chance to get the top score without cheating?? Look at the current top score 112,693,547,164 with a streak of 955...
please-
Yeah it appears u r one sick and sore loser ! The game is not just about being
intelligent to answer rightly but its also about being smart to maximise the points by using all the requisite character attire and other bonus cards that u win for answering correctly. So if u don't have the right attire to answer a particular category of question then u don't maximise points.
U must be out of your mind to think that it will be a cake walk to get to the top score. It takes months of hard work to get there. If someone is better than u, doesn't mean they cheat, its just that u r not working hard to match them, if u wanna better others u should stop whining and instead divert your energies and time to work harder.
P.S. The reason most of us play this wonderful game is to learn new stuff and improve our knowledge than being finicky about getting the top score. -

I don't cheat, and I'm in the top 25. Took me a while, but I didn't get there by cheating.
