World Map Icon & top 100 finishes

[Gt city]

I think, it is 21:00 each sunday CET

True. I still have three unopened chests in my warehouse.
Two from 1st place and one from 2nd place

Thanks!

Until this monday morning I still haven't received prizes for getting in Top 100 in two places.
In Top 100 there is no table for previous week.
Anyone got the same issues ?

Yes I have got the same issue. Top100 in Rio and Sydney but no rewards. I was around 70 or 80 for Rio, and understandable if somehow I got leapfrogged. But I was 20-ish for Sydney, there's no way I'm out of Top50 let alone Top100

 

[Lukasz]

I last 3 weeks I have made a 1st and 2nd place and I have got the rewards. But last week I was about 3rd place to Lima and in the middle of the week my counter stopped. On Saturday I was about 14th place so there is no possibility to get out of Top100 until Sunday 21:00 CET! I have no reward and I think I'm blocked but still don't know for what?

As Juvenal I can't see the table from last week.

I am back in the top100.
I wrote to GI and they answered me with the usual explanation: I was cheating by changing the time in my device. This was not correct as I was always in the same time zone when it happens.
anyway as it is X'mas period and the first time I am "cheating", the friendly Ksenia send me a code to deblock the counters.

We will see if it blocks again... as I don't really know the reason.

To answer the question posed by someone about clock resetting for 'Top 100 finishes'

I think it is the time your phone turns to Monday. Only those flights that land during the week are counted in this quest. And the prize payout is as per US time

By the way i was on vacation and had very limited internet. I was in the running for top 3 in 2 destinations but when i checked my phone with internet last Monday i got nothing

Now i have stopped flying my planes with top 100 finish aim. I am going for all the stars one by one at a time. Currently at 216 stars and flying 12 planes in a day.

I just updated this game yesterday and haven't been playing for about 6 months, only sparingly. Notice the flight's drop rates dropped considerably. The top 100 flight is a waste of time, which mean I will never going to get those silver or gold tokens. You needs to purchase the maps with the greens (which to me is ridiculous). It use to be fun playing this game with my spare time and now GI is making this game impossible to play. I don't have time just to watch the planes landed every hour or play during office hours, so the top 100 flights for me are too difficult.

Hey welcome back, hotdog! Yes i agree the drop rate kinda sucks now. For example I've been flying exclusively to Rome this week with 6 jets to stock up on fuel additives, and many times out of 6 flights, only 2-3 drop fuel additives. 0-2 drop fuel additives from 4 flights. Why the heck would gi make the drop rate for flight items so suck.

Don't worry about top100, some players cheat so bad anyway that you almost can't get #1. Top50 is good enough to get a collection chest containing 5 items.

As for maps, you can buy them with coin from airship store.

golden tokens are 'easy' to get with ancient flights. every collection is 1 golden token, 6 silver, 50 fuel and a space suit or book to launch (only two that dropped so far)

Hi,
I have exactly the same thing as javi. Just got today the code from GI but I don't know if I want to use it because the Top 100 is not the most important thing in the game and I was warned:
"I'm glad to inform you that restrictions can be removed from an account in case the game is blocked for the first time. The standard procedure is that if the game gets blocked for the second time social capabilities are restricted on a permanent basis."

So I think about not being unblocked as I know it is possible. I haven't cheat but if it happen next time I will not have the second opportunity to get unblocked. Am I right?

Lukasz,
My games are also blocked from the Top 100. I don't time travel and I've never bothered to ask GI to fix it. Since the award for all that work is pretty poor, I'm going to leave it that way.
Right now I have 48 Gold Tokens and 806 Silver Tokens. I tried the weekly game only once before I decided it was just too much work ... and it was very obvious that many of the winners cheated. I earned mot of my tokens by getting Golden and Large Bronze Chests from the Adventure Collections.
And the prize for earning enough tokens? A plane that saves you 10% on travel time? Really! If we could store the plane in the Warehouse, that would be great; but who uses a single type of plane all the time? Nobody! We are continuously selling and buying different planes to work the quests. The reward, IMHO, just isn't worth all that time and effort.
Cheers,
Tom
NOTE: I was wrong in my initial post about earning Gold Tokens with launches. Thanks, javi, for setting me straight.

Hi Tom,
do you mean you got gold token with the launches? I just get silver tokens, even if I am first!!!
From the top 100, it has become more interesting. There is now almost only realistic amount of flight and there are interesting challenges to be first. Last week I lead the destination to Amsterdam after a tight competition between 3 other players.

But if the competition is funny, I am agree that the price is not really worth the effort.

Lukasz, you should use the code. It may be not valid anymore after a couple of day. And if the algorithms to find cheaters are not good enough, any other actions can send you in the banned group.
2 days ago my gifts were triplicated, I don't know why? Now I am scared to be punish for that.

Hi Tom, do you mean you got gold token with the launches? I just get silver tokens, even if I am first!!!

javi,
Each Golden Chest includes three Gold and ten Silver Tokens. Each Large Beonze Chest includes one Gold and six Silver Tokens. You earn these when you complete the Adventure Collections. I was wrong about getting Gold with the launches.
Cheers,
Tom

Hi,
My top100 is not counting anymore.
The deblocking works not even 1 month.
I will complain again to GI, but according them, they deblock the game only once....
Lukasz, nothing else is blocked or at least I haven't notice anything else.

 

[javi]

by the way, before my blocking I had 2 prizes, 2nd to Hawai and 49th to Houston.
I got only the prize for Houston. From what I read in precedent posts, it looks like by several prizes, you got only one and the lowest!

 

[Lukasz]

We all know there is a lot of bugs in this game but I have noticed a moment ago a user called "Stadoum" who is first on new Tortuga destination with Level..... 100
Well done GI

 

[Bali Hi]

Last Monday morning, I was pleasantly surprised to get a few Chests (presumably from Top 100 finishes).
I thought this was a bug, since I never chase for the Top 100 and fly mainly to Excavations: Ancient World.

This evening, out of curiosity, I checked out the Top 100 and the new Giant destinations' Top 100.
To my surprise, I was actually on the list:

Edit: I apparently did not look at the right tab.

Caracas - 5 flights - No. 44
Johannesburg - 1 flights - No. 45
Tortuga - 1 flight - No. 33
Oslo - 1 flight - No. 55
Toronto - 2 flights -No 20

I only has time to fly 1, 2 or 3 times to each destination, so I assume there were so few people flying Giants last week, even a single flight will get you a Top 3 joint placing!

This current week, I am at position 56, 11, 20, 34, 45 respectively, so it won't be that easy!
Anyone else had this stroke of good luck?

 

[greensmith]

I just checked the GIANT destinations and noticed that Popssie already has 30 flights to Caracas, 18 flights to Tortuga, 12 flights to Toronto, 20 flights to Oslo and 20 flights to Johannesburg. That's 900 hours of flying (assuming the planes are not S1) and it's only Tuesday. Only 60 hours since the Sunday reset. I'm terrible at math ... is this even possible? Just wondering.
Cheers,
Tom

I think I'm quickly beginning to understand why you guys think this feature isn't working right... My flights aren't even getting counted.
