    I still think some are cheating

    I previously had cause to raise my suspicions that there may just be one or two naughty cheaters amongst my fellow 'Your Shapers'! On more than one occasion I've been overtaken by those who, only the day before we're 40,000 points behind me and more. One member, not amongst those I suspect of cheating I hasten to add, suggested that perhaps these are people who build up calories offline and when after a period of time they go online, a large increment in calories will appear. Plausible, perhaps, though one would question why be offline in the first place for weeks on end. Now that aside, I recently noticed another player who out of the blue shot up the leader board. Now let's give them the benefit of the doubt, as maybe they were one of those who accrue score offline. However, after that initial sudden jump up the leaderboard, within a further 48 hours a staggering extra 18,000 points had been added to that score! Now I ask you, 18,000 in two days, is that really plausible Yes, if you went non stop day and night, maybe. But something tells me 'dishonesty and cheating' might be a more reasonable choice of words.

    I agree. Thing is, Ubisoft don't seem bothered about it so best not to get upset and just take from the experience what you can.

    I have no interest in the first few pages of "scores" even though I see a couple of names in there I think are genuine and honest. They probably would lead without the cheaters. I'm happy to move up the table several pages back and use that as one of my minor motivators.

    Supposedly any "prizes" are awarded to random event members so final position is probably not important for that.
