Ultimate Bullseye Glitch?

Fri Apr 13, 2007 9:17 am

I was playing Ultimate bullseye while on a world challenge and got a score of 238, so I sent it, and then an error came that the staff are reviewing it. What happened here?

Its not an error. A while back, TNT instigated a new system where they begin to review scores if they are above a certain score or if the window was open for a very long time before the score was sent. Its their way of making sure people aren't cheating on the games to receive highscores which earn them trophies and keep honest game players from getting what they deserve.

It may take up to a few days, but your score will be accepted by a staff member who has checked to make sure you weren't cheating. Don't worry, its just a feature to keep people who don't cheat in the best position

Congrats on the score *hides his measly attempts*

But I was in a world challenge! :x

Scores that are past a certain point (there's a minimum score requried for reviews, by the way) will not be accepted into world challenge competition. For example, a score of 10999 in Snow Wars 2 will win you a world challenge competition, but a score of 11000 is the review score, and so won't count.

I do not know the score review point for Ultimate Bullseye, but I imagine it's 199 or so.

It's frustrating but that's the way it goes. According to the guides any score over 224 will be reviewed. Congrats on your avatar though if this was your first time above 225! Regardless you're way better than me.

On WC you need to pay attention to the good/great players and see if they seem to hover around a score. In ultimate bullseye aim for a score between 220 and 225. ;) The same goes for other games like Dubloon Disaster, Hasee Bounce, etc. Sometimes it's not about having the high score but having the most scores in an hour and being able to get the closest score to the review score. Sorry to hear about your unfortunate luck.

A neomessage came today saying:
Hi karnatu,

Your score of 238 in Ultimate Bullseye has been reviewed and accepted.

You have been awarded 1,000 neopoints. If you qualified for an avatar, that has also been awarded.


I got the avatar but I'm really mad at them for doing such a thing. In Ultimate bullseye I usually can't get over 180 and it was my second time I got above 200. :(
Anyway now this has become an experience for me... ;)
