Wildlife Event League

[InvincibleSunshine29498]

Since Day 1 after I played Wildlife event, I have hit the Apprentice Rank for 3 times, the last time my score was 234k and the Apprentice Qualifying Ranking Score was 234k. This is the fourth time I have been dropped to 'Trainee' again.
Can the developer team explain :
1. Why there is not a Proper Standard Qualifying Scores Ranges for the League's 5 Ranks?

As players are unable to see whether we have hit the higher Rank status, it only shows a 'Percentage of Players' and where we stand?
This isn't too fair for us as even though we hit a higher score, we were kept being moved down to the previous rank because the display only shows there are some percentages of players have scored higher than our scores.
I hope the developer team can look into this Ranking Qualifier Scores as we do check to see if we can qualify to win the ultimate final top reward to determine if we should spend or buy diamonds.
Thank you, Team.

This Event and it's prize structure is designed to a %age of players earning, via each tier. Developers do not know ahead of time how many points players will or not get - and the prizes are geared to letting the players achieve a tier. If you are falling down, it is only because you are not playing enough - and more than anything, these prize tiers are meant to entice players to play more and more - and the top players will be spending diamonds and $'s to achieve top status.
This is a money making game, and this is how it is designed - for years.
You want to win the FINAL TOP REWARD - well then, start spending - now or later. Developers and other players are not going to hold back on their play-time, just because you thought you should have done enough to be a 'top-dog'.
Everything in this format is fair, as everyone will win prizes - it is just determined how much you played versus all the other players that ends up deciding what prizes you will ultimately receive.

It's a relative score range, not an absolute score.

The ranges are for top 50%, top 20%, top 10% etc. So the number of points needed to qualify goes up all the time, and the only way to go up a rank is to score points faster than other players.

You will not know if the event is worth going for the top reward (If you mean the zoologist postion) till the last few minutes. Everyone near the top of professional will start deciding if to spend more, so you can feel safe 100k into Zoologist and still drop down quite easily depending on how many decide to go for it and what offers are provided in the last days. Those golden tickets very quickly boost numbers if used right and combined with lightening balls and with x3 tickets also available to play I imagine even faster league movement towards the end than last year.

This event was pretty hectic last year due to the top tier spawner building having decent boosts. I spent more than I expected for the Garden, it actually cost quite a lot more than the winter event top league postion from memory. I'm not sure if this year it will as most prizes in the event don't seem that good, to me anyway, I'm not concerned about def boosts though.

If they did standard set points for league postion and took out the player % they would miss out on the spend from players competing against each other to stay in the league postion.

Nobody from the developer team has posted here in for over a decade at least so I wouldn't hold your breath for a response.

They don't need to. If you are still dropping from Apprentice to Trainee at this stage of the Event, you can stop looking. You will not make it to the top spot anymore, caue frankly, you are so far behind that it does not look like you are very good at this mini-game and/or very active in the Event. Just safe your money, cause the amount you need to catch up is way more than the prizes are worth.

Was there no Wildlife even discussion / announcement thread ? 2025

I am getting a lot of Epic 2023 kit. not 2025

2023 and 2024 Epic Wildlife kits are %age chance rewards from the Red treasure chests, 3 stars or higher. The 2025 kits are a Daily (or alternate Daily). It was the Daily 3 or 4 days ago.
There is also a 2024 Ascended Kit, while was also a daily and can be an alternate. It does not have a 2025 version yet.

No, guess they don't want feedback on it.

No, guess they don't want feedback on it.

Other forums do have it, so I think they just forgot.

Has the Wildlife event been tweaked mid-event? Until last week I was getting 3-5 paws per board [concentrating on paws rather than chests]. In the last four boards I’ve had one easily-gettable starting paw, then no more have appeared at all until the last couple of moves.

Yes it has been tweaked. They always change things halfway through when players are doing to good.

This is getting silly. I've played three more mini-games [in two different worlds]. In all three there was a starting paw, which I captured withing a few moves. Then nothing. Not a single paw spawned during the remaining 20-odd moves. The usual number of chests, but no paws.

Is there any way round this? Are paws more likely to spawn after, say, capturing a chest? Or using a hammer? Or in centre or side columns?

It is strictly RNG. Anyone claiming more than that are just pulling BS out of the sky. Like anything RNG, some are getting better chances, some are getting worse chances - just like any kind of gambling. Has Inno tweaked the programmed RNG - possibly, but who knows unless you can see and understand the code, so again, just BS if anyone claims otherwise - since Inno obviously is not going to release their programming to the general public. If however, someday a hacker gets into their servers and downloads some data - well, then possibly the general public, especially those who can understand the code they use, may be able to identify what exactly is happening.

And really - even if you or someone could possibly prove something, such as the RNG is tweaked somehow - what difference would that make? Your game play stays the same, and whatever the tweaking might be, it would highly likely just be a minor adjustment, no big change. Such as an algorithm that identifies after you have gotten only 1 paw three boards in a row, might increase the RNG odds so that the next board will improve the chance of getting more than 1. But if the next board gave you 3 or gave you 12 - how would you have any idea if a tweak gave you 12, or if just the normal RNG happened to increase to 12. Maybe the RNG would only have been 11 paws and the tweak gave you a 12th - again, you will never be able to identify or know exactly what is causing it, or if it is causing anything.
If it ever happened that after collecting 3 Blue 6-star chests that the following board would always have 20 paws on it - that would just be an error in coding somewhere - and if people started taking advantage of it, then Inno would consider it cheating, and anyone specifically trying to create 3 Blue 6-star chests would likely have all their extra paws removed. Taking advantage of a purposeful or accidental coding error is cheating.
