I think this would be a good start. It would slow down multiaccounting in the sense that you wouldn't really be able to run several races at once and play through only on the ones that the combo shows up on, and thus force people with multiple accounts to only go through them one at a time. It wouldn't prevent them from potentially getting high scores with all of those accounts, but it would make the process of getting there much slower.

have you ever gotten the message 'you are not standing in the rings' when you are afking standing on the rings (and have been--and have been having tickets taken/won etc)?....was very strange thing I saw today wish I had taken a screen shot of it---

I waited until the round was over...walked out of my ring and back in, and didnt get the message again....but it was weird as I had been standing there for hours already.

If that's not enough to entice you, don't forget that if the Celestial Dragon fully enjoys its meal, all those attending the feast receive two exciting treats: the explosively entertaining Crate of Fireworks, and a special mystery reward! We'd like to summon a description of this gift for you—but then it wouldn't be a mystery, would it?
Celestial Summoning Stones, obviously... not much of a mystery, but that's what happens when they just recycle the same text each year.

I only got 84 fortunes this year, which gave me 4 celestial mini's. My guildmate did the same and got none. It seems that either people are really lucky, or really unlucky.

262 tokens, no minis.

Add that on to another 200+ from last year with no minis either.

Yes, it's pretty much a gamble. I open 6-700 each year and get none.

Around 400 fortunes and 1 mini. Pretty unlucky compared to others but I really feared I would have got none at all, so really happy!

Misplacement bug or something like that maybe?

It would still fix the problem a bit.. Actually, i got surprised a bit earlier when i wondered if a guy was a bot, as he suddenly stopped moving when i was more or less abusing stucking him... So basically i was doing that quite often by then and 6 guys ( from top100) did stop moving anymore... quite strange though...

But well even by then, i was mostly trying to piss off players by using blast when they were far away and i rarely ever got a flame for it.. I don't really usually like calling everyone that seems better a cheater, but i am sure that roughly 20% of the ladder does bot the race.. I really still can't believe , due to in game pings, people using ram randomly, luck relying boxes , etc that it's again the same players in the top100... I can believe some play 24/7 and thus get luck, but it can't happen to all these...


That's gonna be an other year of people instantly going to kamadan selling their 10 zippys on abusive prices..
