How long have you been in soil league? I would think a player with M100+ plants would be out of the soil league in 1 week right?

"Million Instructions per Second"

 

Actually it takes almost no computing power to flip an attribute from x to Mxxx, I was just saying that it didn't need to be done by an actual person pushing a button.  In the case of the manufactured accounts, I don't think the accounts get manipulated, I think that when they're generated now, some of the EA accounts now have M200 plants.

I think I've been in the soil league for two days already... My profile is only around 8 weeks old. I had a 7 year old profile that I lost due to a buggy phone. I was not using cloud sync before since I haven't played for years and I had no idea they could be sync'ed. So, in short, I'm fairly new to all of this.

 

With the coming sling peashooter event, I don't mind just staying in the lower league again. Hahaha! Easy-peasy opponents! The evil in me...

 

I doubt if EA would bump me back to Jade league. And besides, the monster profiles I encounter there are just soul-crushing at times.

Also, IMO, EA doesn't have bots.  I don't think anyone ever plays against a computer.  IMO, EA creates a player name, some sort of semi-random selection of plants, and then they assign a score which 9 times out of 10 is higher than whatever score you achieved.  The distinction may be lost on some people, so whatever...

 


WRONG!

 

Haemophilus_EA, the EA representative on Reddit, has said that Bots are used during the first few hours of any tournament to assist with getting recordings for use later on.

 

She has also said that Bots will also be used in the event of any player having a particularly slow internet connection that makes syncing with a real player, or one of their recordings, impossible.

 

As for the level 200 Mastery after such a short time - that has to be down to dumb hackers who think everyone else is as dumb as them and won't notice.

So you actually agree with me

 

given that any real player couldn’t achieve that, it is appalling on the part of EA to set that stuff up. It is only to stack their coffers
