Even though I've been taking this event easy I'm seriously considering making a push for the top haha I doubt the top player will make 50M points. I don't think anyone is out to push the envelope on a record score - and top players are probably showing restraint with cubes; just enough to place whilst saving for next episode. After an over-enthusiastic dive into shallow waters of the tiered bridge last event, player's have learnt the painful lesson and realised that rank rewards are not value equitable to the cost required to attain them - and are regulating the new value of them by choosing to spend less. It's interesting how this episode has panned out. Must be interesting for ngmoco to watch too - a crash course in taking your player base for granted. If ngmoco had been a bit more discreet and respectful they could have kept the charade going and we would have happily played along.
