It doesn't have to be rigged. You just spend gold on speed hatching eggs from the market.

For example, if you buy 241 water eggs and speed hatch them, you get 8,676 points for hatching them.

Total cost:
241 x 10,000 coins = 2,410,000 coins
241 x 12 gold for hatching = 2,892 gold
241 x 20 seconds to buy each egg and speed hatch it = 1 hour 20 minutes 20 seconds total (if done nonstop)
Cost of 2900 gold at 30% off = US $69.99

Note that this requires only one nest and would have the effect of looking like the nest is empty most of the time.

That's crazy but explains a lot. But I still can not believe people do this!

I had not thought of that, but I find it hard to believe that people would spend that sort of real world money for one Dragon (or 4 fi you have none of the milestone ones). Maybe TL/S8 should try to find a way to keep the big spenders/speed breeders in seperate leaderboards. But I guess it is the luck of the draw.

I see, with 2x boost it costs only a half, about 35 $.

They have the same problem as gambling addicts. They just have to win.

I agree, but Dragon Story WAS not and SHOULD not be that sort of game. It is shame that TL/S8 are taking this route.

I do not mind a little competition, but it should be a level playing field, not who can throw the most money at it to win.

Okay then, now I see. Thanks for the example, I was never sharp at math. Sorry, Storms and Team Lava for doubting you!

Who has time for that!
