Great Race (may 2018)

The listing for the winners only shows top five, and props to those folks, I can’t fathom that volume of play, but I’d love to see the breakdown or at least a range for the other ranks. For reference, I had 52, which for me is a lot, but apparently not to even get on the bottom rank. Not being a sore loser (ok, I yelled at my phone), but I would love to to set a goal for next time.

Good for you!! I had 11. Shame on me lol. Many moons ago I had 175. I was sick and tired of playing after that episode, I believe it was for 5 wilds. I love setting goals for myself when I play, keeps me on track!

When do we receive our wild card(s)!?! I won 315

The winner had 522 wins in a 24 hour period which breaks down to almost 22 needed per hour. I had 123 wins in about an 12 hour day (the most I played) which breaks down to over 10 games needed per hour. There is no way possible that without cheating to even reach 522 wins. Maybe GSN should make it more competitive and stop rewarding cheaters to achieve such high amounts for a game that pays you out in fake coins.

I know I won 315 fair & square. I simply played the first 3 islands on tiki island, playing tributes when needed. All winners better get something soon is all im saying

@Annie_Avena, awesome! Those are the islands I’d focus on, my problem is I get bored and that’s when I do stupid stuff and losing coins, so I was working in other things. But you are a smart cookie. And that was my assumption, that people who were patient enough to play the low coin islands repeatedly and/or also the people who are on the top 500 who are highly skilled.

@James As far as scammers, yes, they are out there. Just a reality for anything online. Before I found the forum as simple search for game advice lead me to some sketchy sites and b.s. on YouTube. I have enough problems in my life to go down that road. Scammers hitting a booster contest, perhaps, but coins scripts, absolutely.

@James, I can win a game every 2 - 3 minutes. It could cost a lot, but it’s possible, without cheating. :money_with_wings:

my neck hurts so bad from my amount of play - bc I played much more than I won, my already busted neck had me down for the count today. But I am proud of my team, they are kicking butt this week, so it was worth it. It was actually not the game, just sitting doing anything on my phone for a long time is not good for it. Which leads me to, is there a desktop version of this game & do I have to go through Facebook?

I looked for a desktop version a longwhile back and did not see one. But my pc is an ancient one lol. You do not need to go through facebook but if you already are that is how your account is there are a few players that have more than one account, so creating a new one would start you from scratch

@jessnc, you can play on your computer. Thanks to my son in law, I learned about an Android emulator. I use Koplayer. After you install it, you go to the Play Store and download Solitaire Tripeaks. You can then sign into your account like on your phone.

Thank you. I am two days into a Windows update nightmare, but if I get that going, I’ll be downloadig that. I found out there is a Facebook have desktop app, but it had the two other hand games, but not this.

My experience after playing all day was a total of 175 wins, it was long ago and my reward at the time was 1 Wild Card. If not able to understand how top clubs reach such high numbers, nor do I I would resist even trying. They are either in a test group with more options to win or something else is giving them the ability to do this. As Tripeaks has not addressed the issues I find it less stressful to just play my game and hope I am credited with daily earnings. Definitely a problem with FB coin exchanges if you screenshot before and after collecting coins and do the math you may find you are not collecting all the coins available. One week I had over 60k available coins and actually collected zero. Writing in depends on who responds as some will reimburse while others give you answer that you have collected all coins available but you bank tally shows you did not. Another area to watch is weekly event rewards are often much less than stated in each Perk Chest. Often shorted. When writing in some responses are the rewards are estimates of what you could possibly get not necessarily the rewards posted next to each chest. Actions such as these have made my mind up on buying anything from game as they are not displaying an honesty that encourages me to buy anything from Tripeaks. I keep playing out of consideration to my other club members, I feel the social part of game is genius on their part as it retains people who otherwise would have continued on to another game.

@Lin_Beaulieu, I feel your pain, I lost a bunch of coins last night. And after ready the HUGE number of games you played, like that is a lot, to get on card, I am not going to bust my chops on that particular quest anymore. I am going to play as usual, if I get one, cool.

I am curious, if like many sites, apps, games, if the tech support is a third party outside of GSN and if so, that may be why the answers are varied. I did support for a phone company , a major one, and we were contractors via a third party call center. It is very common.

For 24 hours though?

I know right @Janeen_Killian_Dishm? Lol I couldn’t do it. I’m good for about 4 hours max, usually more like 2-3 hours.

If every game took 2 minutes, and you didn’t stop to pee or eat, a person could win 522 games in 17.4 hours :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:
