    lol I've played the game numerous times now. 800, 50% Wrong and few bonus runs.. No that is a blatant lie.

    I get 800-950 near enough all the time, that is with me gettin 80-95% Accuracy, Hitting over 90% of what comes down, which it would be impossible to hit all, and in the 60 second limit.

    No offence but I know for a FACT you are talking rubbish about them scorelines.

    To be exact my score was 813, I scored 99% on the good stuff and I think 48% on the bad which breaks the bonus runs, first time I got just over 500 (second time they fell in big clumps which made it easier but I couldn't avoid hitting the bad stuff at the same time).
    You get 25 pts for 5 in a row, 50pts for 10 and so on which gives a possible score of 2550 if 60 items drop and 2975 if 65 do.
    It may be very unlikely that someone will score that many but it is in theory possible depending on the number of items dropped.
    It would also be so much easier with a touch screen, just imaging tapping the good stuff with both index fingers instead of having to drag a mouse around the screen.

    As I thought really. If you have no interest in the App's nor do you play them it's better you don't pass comment about me being a sore loser when I'm one of the people who puts my two words in to keep competitions fair round here and call out the cheats. The only people who will have anything negative to say to me are the people who practice cheating themselves and don't like the fact others are trying to eliminate it.

    Don't forget that the 10 points is only if you hit it in the first second of it falling, that reduces every second or 2. I doubt at all that anyone manages to hit them all mid air when they fall, especially near the end as they come down faster. Add to that the fact they fall with Non tools on top or below them which gives you an X if you attempt to hit them alone. I do have an iPad, and I would be willing to try it but I'm confidant as well using touch screen won't make much of a difference.

    Oh and also, items don't constantly drop. I've had times on the game where I'm waiting 1 or 2 seconds for anything to come down followed by Non tools.

    Trust me, 99.9% the high scorers on that game are hacking. I'd be interested to see RAC release the score that they deem achievable. Already been complains on their FBook. I'd happily send it through to the standards agency if they are not willing to address it.

    Unfortunately for you OP, as this is a free and open forum. You really have no say in who posts what in it.

    If you seriously think your in some way able to eradicate the existence of an app that is capable of cheating on an online game, by merely posting dribble about MSE users cheating the system, then your too far beyond help.

    That this score is still possible (either with or without some cheat app), proves the very point that your failing. However I am happy to sit back and have you prove me wrong about it. :D

    I don't think it likely but a perfect game depending on the number of itms dropped could yield a very high score (I'll give it another go but I bet they wont fall as kindly as last time).

    833 with a 91/24 good/bad split

    As we have seen in the past the power of complaint from MSE users have forced companies to change how they give out their prizes to random draws due to people cheating on these Apps - Hence me creating a topic so I'm pretty much in the right to do so. It might be dribble to you but then again you may be one of the people who benefit by cheating so then I could see why you are against my callout. The topic was created for the honest MSE members and non members. I'm happy with it. You can't stop people cheating but you can change the way the companies run their affairs.

    But don't worry about that, go back to playing your squash and leave the rebellion to me kidda.

    Keep trying. You got a few more weeks to do it, my guessing is you won't be improving that score much no matter how good a game you have.

  • To the OP, I really think coming onto a forum and publicly asking that forum to help you, then continuing in that thread slating members of that same forum is a tad daft. You need to take a deep breath and move on hun. If you believe (without any evidence that I can see) that there are programs being used to cheat in this particular game, then feel free to contact the company and let them know. Also feel free to ask others to contact that company if you want, although I rather feel you've shot yourself in the foot on this forum now regarding this matter and I certainly wouldn't feel compelled to help somebody who is acting like such a child and having a temper tantrum about it. Move on and find a comp where people aren't cheating and stop being so rude to people simply because they don't agree with you. Its a game. You're not trying to organise the Tolpuddle martyrs.
    August-September 2017: Lots of stuff :)
    :beer::beer::)
  • I love the game comps and this is the first time I've read this thread.
    I'm gutted they can be hacked! I just thought people were exceptionally good players.

    If you can't beat them - JOIN THEM! - somebody post the cheat I dare ya!!
