Tough. Sorry, but tough. I dont make the rules, but like everyone else, I have to adapt to and play with them. Its the same in the asian finals no doubt. Like me, NO ONE is forcing you to enter or to bet. If you dont like it, you are also free to stay away.
and PS - I never used the phrase "get stuck" with a crown. Mischief is wrongly quoting me.
You are right, you didn't say "got stuck". This is your statement;
[I tried everything to lose but Leesa out-manouevered me. Dammit. So not worth the extra crown. ]
If it's not worth getting a crown, then why do it? Did you need 30 leader cards? Did you need another piece of sirius gear, the gem, the mage, maybe 30 more purple medals? We play because it's one of the few ways to get tickets, which we DO need. It is hard to bet on people who play like that. Yes, we are stuck with CW as they do it, but there is a whole generation of players who'd LOVE to win that stuff, just once. A whole lot of players who'd like a shot at a fair bet.
Play on~ just stop complaining that you win.

Very simple. When you make it to the finals, you get 1 x level 8 chip. That is all I care about tbh. I care less about the leader cards and stars. Also finishing in the quarter finals gets you 2 x level 7 chip without taking on a crown. On top opf all this you accumulate a ton of tickets to buy another level 7 chip from the store with those tickets.
This is why people do it. It has nothing to do about exploiting as one person keeps saying it is. It is about playing the game to your advantage as it was designed. If anything the whole crown system should have never been implemented as it is unfair to people who invested a lot of money to this game over people who have not. Essentially UCool robbed the rich to prolong the game and give hope to those who would have no chance to ever see the winnings. Doing it after people have made the investment.
" unfair to people who invested a lot of money to this game "
Did you have to pay a lot for that sense of entitlement? Maybe we should just see who has biggest limit on credit card and they win. LOL
