Contest of Mayors Revamp: Your Guide to the New Mayor's Pass Structure

We're thrilled to unveil a comprehensive revamp to the Mayor's Pass and Contest of Mayors, designed to elevate your gaming experience with exciting new features. This update is crafted to help you earn more rewards and advance through tiers with enhanced engagement and strategy.

 

Key Improvements: Faster Progression!

More tasks, more fun, more rewards! We are now introducing 10 milestone tasks that are always active, allowing you to work on multiple tasks simultaneously. Additionally, you can now activate 3 bonus tasks at the same time using Golden Tickets. Also each day you will receive 3 daily assignments to complete! This means you'll advance through the Mayor's Pass ranks much quicker, unlocking rewards and reaching new heights faster than ever before!

Progress in the Mayor’s Pass is now separate from the Contest of Mayors. We’ve added Mayor Pass Points, which contribute exclusively to your Mayor’s Pass progression. Whenever you complete assignments, you’ll earn both Plumbob Points and Mayor Pass Points. These are capped weekly to ensure smooth and manageable progression. As you move up through the leagues, your weekly cap will increase, enhancing your experience.

 

Daily Assignments:

Starting June 25th, the Contest of Mayors will introduce daily goals. These assignments reset every 24 hours and are consistent across all players, ensuring a fair and competitive environment. Daily goals are automatically initiated, requiring no activation from you. These goals are designed to offer a refreshing daily challenge, motivating you to engage with the game regularly and optimize your strategy.

 

Weekly Assignments:

In addition to daily goals, you'll encounter weekly assignments featuring 15 distinct challenges. You can focus on 10 milestone tasks simultaneously, maximizing your progress.

 

Bonus Assignments:

Contest of Mayors continues to feature pick-and-choose Bonus Assignments, activated with Golden Tickets. You can manually select and start three bonus tasks simultaneously. Choose wisely to maximize points and climb the leaderboard effectively. You can cancel active assignments if needed, though this reduces your maximum weekly count. This strategic flexibility makes each decision impactful and personalized to your style.

These exciting changes bring a dynamic approach to the Contest of Mayors, allowing you to tackle multiple tasks at once for rapid progression. With 10 always-active milestone tasks and the ability to choose 3 bonus tasks simultaneously, your journey to success will be faster and more rewarding than ever. Dive into the action, explore new strategies, and make impactful choices to climb the ranks and claim your rewards! Get ready to dominate the Mayor's Pass like never before

  • And you've done it AGAIN! Weekly cap of 120k is crap. This will be my last week playing this game if you keep this crippling cap.

    Remove this stupid Cap on Assignments! Let us play our game how it should be played, not how you “Community Managers “ think it should be played coz you haven’t got a clue! 
     

    A lot of people have left the game because of the stupidity of this new concept which doesn’t help our game. 

    I admit though that the new buildings are cool for this season but come on to upgrade the costs are ridiculous and know that at end of this season I won’t have all the coins needed to upgrade the shrine!

    I am not going to pay for the extra coins to further the upgrade either.

    The only way to fix this problem with the cap is to reduce the point value in the coins collect, eg 4700 points to go towards the cap of 120k is ridiculous. I’ve hit the cap with 40 assignments to do and a score towards the mayors challenge of 70000 points.

    Come on someone please fix this as it really is frustrating and according to the revamp of the mayors challenge is absolutely crap!

    How do you think by doing what you have done makes it easier to advance through the tiers?

    More and more people are leaving this game as in my club players don’t play anymore and I have to remove them!

    This new seasonal contest of Kyoto is going to be the same as the Pyramid one and whilst the cap is in place no one will actually get the max upgrade required for the Shrine.

    I won’t pay for it as it really is a pain to do it!

  • Ok in my Megalopolis league I’m at tier 20 with a score of 83k and have the leader at tier 25 with a score of 226k.

    If this is capped at 120k how the hell does that player score that high?

    please explain!

    This only complicates the game with zero improved value to the individual player! 
    Great for EA though

    m652i346ez0m - the weekly cap applies to Mayor's Pass points. What you're are looking at is CoM points, which are not capped.

    Pointless! What’s the value to the player? So  what if I can advance faster so can everyone else. What’s the end result? I advanced faster and I accumulated more stuff I can’t use because I’m fully expanded!!! But,! I have more ads that I can watch now to get items I used to get by trolling Global Trade ! 

  • Even though some like this concept but the majority of us do not!
    It’s about time you the Community Managers  took note and do something about this stupid CAP that you have put in.

     It does not help anybody to climb the ladder so to speak nor does it give us the opportunity to go from one league to the higher leagues.

    Its a shame that you aren’t listening to us the players and as I have played this game for over 10 years even I can’t advance into the higher league plus I miss out on the weekly prize because of the CAP!

    Please take it off and let us play this game at our own pace not yours!

    Thankyou
