E: 23/12 Thorntons Christmas Curling{MERGED}

dontone

Only problems I have had is that my penguins seem to be a bit p-p-p-drunk.
:beer:
Having trouble getting enough speed and when I use the birds to curl straight it veers left. Anybody have any hints or tips please?

I just find the right speed and leave it to travel straight, then just make sure the other ones don't hit one that's landed well!

Not too sure on the game here. Was on the leader board for the past 4 days with a score of 800. Just recieved an email from Thorntons telling me they can't accept my entry as there was a discrepancy with my result.

as far as I'm aware I've done nothing wrong which really frustrates me! Having said that I have recieved my free 50p chocolate!

Anyone else had any problems with this?

Yep same for my oh who got 800 and got same email saying 'discrepancy' with his result. He replied asking them to elaborate on what they meant as he played fairly and would like to know why it was ineligible but no reply yet.

Very strange

Is it your first score counts?xxxx

I'm not sure cuz he didn't submit any til he managed to get 800 after practicing. t+c's say if they think you submit false scores they will remove you but i don't see how you can submit false scores as the computer tells you the score. Will see if they reply. He's just got 800 and submitted again. He's good at games lol! My best score is about 20 , keep doing them too fast. xx

It says you can enter as many times as you like, but how on earth can you enter a false score? I don't see how you can get over 800, and it says if the scores are tied then the first to score the tied score will be above the other on the leader board.

I entered again and was 4th with a score of 800 and now I'm down to 9th? there must be a way of gaining more than 800 but whether its a glitch in the programme or not I don't know. Maybe there will be another revamp on the board tomorrow and they'll kick me off again anyway:mad: :mad:

Very odd though, I hope they will publish a list of the high scores when the comp finishes - but I won't be holding my breath!!!

I've emailed them as well but not sure if its a 'manned' email address or not.
I'll let you know if I hear anything.

How is it possible to fit 3 of the chocs on to the centre circle for 3 lots of 300, perhaps that is where the score error is. Top socre my be 100+ 99+ ??+ 500 next go.
