Cheats/Hackers in Contest of Mayors
Hi Been directed here by an appalling e-mail reply from EA customer services. I finished last weeks (commencing 03 Jan 18) Contest of Mayors Mega League in 3rd place, but the two cities/mayors abov...

I agree with some of posts. I am trying to even finish through contest of mayors. The six people in same region continually harass/push me to sell my items that are Not for sale at trade depot.
I reported a mayor who somehow reached a final score averaging 3376 points per task assuming completion of 75 assignments in megalopolis league. Over 253,000 points.
Those of us who work to complete 60 assignments and spend 15 tickets to improve final standing know the frustration of being dropped a rank by such obvious cheating. It usually involves spending sim cash to speed through some of the high point assignments and generally real cash is spent to acquire.
EA is damaging its revenue stream by not swiftly solving this issue.
Like others I'm fed up. I ignore war packs now because of the continued rampant cheating.
All you can do is keep reporting them. Send them a screenshot of the standings with the mayor in question. And venting your frustration here helps too. More people need to do the same thing by posting here. Maybe something will be done by EA if more start complaining here. They really need to figure a way to prevent this from happening in the first place, or act swiftly to rectify the problem. Personally, I don't put much effort into it anymore and starting to lose interest in the game due to the cheating.
It's ridiculous. I was whole season whit guys who got over 225 000 easily. I reported immediately. Nothing happened. In the end I was moved to another group so I can't see did they even ban those players. I should have given bigger price in megalopolis if they had removed the obvious cheaters as I thought they will.
Now I didn't get bigger price or anything. What ever you do don't put money in this in here it would be criminal to keep contests where people can't win
Have anyone seen EA talking about cheating? I'm not talking about few guys. I know most of you have seen it
I agree with you. I am refusing to spend another dime until EA takes action. I usually buy the packs for war cards etc... NO MORE!
Every week it is the same, over and over again. Doesn't matter what level, always a new cheat/hacker. But what is worse is that those who should have finished first and rightfully claimed their prize are forced to take second and others are even getting bumped out of the prize circle all together.
It seems that the only solution is to withhold all prizes to be claimed until it can be verified that the winners are legitimate and then publish the winners in your CoM.
The other solution is to scrap the CoM altogether. That's where I'm heading. I only do the CoM now for our group's chests.
