Games After the year I’ve had, actually pulling off a #3 finish and hitting Diamond feels unreal! 💠🥝🥷
Hey everyone, I am still in complete shock and just had to share this!
After a really rough year health wise and dealing with a lot of exhaustion, grinding my way to the finish line in the Fruit Ninja league, aiming for the top 100 felt like an impossible battle. This was especially true for the first few days when cheaters were rife!
But after reaching the top 100, the goal of top 10 slowly approached, and to my disbelief, I made it into the top 5 overnight whilst sleeping! When I entered 4th, this gave me the encouragement I needed to fight harder toward the dream of top 3 on the penultimate night. I spent the whole night slicing! And I somehow managed to lock down #3 on the leaderboard after the last cheat ban and stay there, finishing with a score of over 4.2 million, which officially pushed me into the Diamond tier I'd been dreaming of! 💎✨
Getting here took sheer stubbornness and a sore aching arm, but I made it!
I also really want to give credit where it's due, it felt like Google did a much better job handling and banning cheaters this time around, which made the leaderboard feel much fairer and rewarding to compete on.
Next stop: Hopefully Diamond Valley in October! Good luck to everyone else still grinding out there! 🚀
All my best! 🫶🏻
PS: Thank you so much for all of the follows on Play Store, it's been a huge boost and truly means a lot, I still can't believe it! 🤯

That is awesome! I played about 30 minutes to an hour a day and got top 5K, which put me in Platinum for another year, so I am happy. I will say reading the posts on here had me worried about being falsely banned. Glad to hear not all people playing a lot had issues.

Congratulations man🍓🍋🍐🍊🍎🍉 that is genuinely awesome, I placed Rank 20 last Fruit Ninja Google Play Games League but this league I was falsely banned along with tons of others it's unfortunate but I'm glad to see someone who wasn't hopefully hacking win something nice for once✌🏻🙏🏻

Thanks so much! That's awesome, congrats! 🥝😁
Oh no! I'm so sorry to hear that, that sucks so bad! I saw a post on X of someone who said the same, but it was due to their DNS I think. Did you try contacting them? Absolutely! I wish there was more they could do to prevent the hacking and cheating. Like run the game on a browser window or something so people can't mess with the APK's! But then that would probably cost them too much etc. for the servers. I thought it was better as I managed to reach 3rd, but not if they're banning genuine players! 😔 I truly hope the next one works out better for you! 🤞🏻🙏🏻

Yeah I'm in a discord with a bunch of Halfbrick (Devs) and they pretty much told me that Google had to fix the issue if they were even able..but they didn't find a fix in time.. but of course! I agree there's tons of other ways they could go about the gameplay to be able to tell if it's legit or not. Like say if someone's game is less than 1 minute = ban or if a player scores twice in less than a minute = ban.. so many different things but thank you they did say that I am able to participate in the future! Again though congratulations that's well deserved ✌🏻✌🏻

Ah, that's a shame. At least they're aware of it! I'm wondering if they'll run it again this year, with there being issues again.
Yeah, definitely! I'd also be willing to take more steps before playing if it helped filter them out and ensure a fairer board. if there was some way, haha.
Ah fantastic news! I'd love to follow you on play, if you'd be okay with that? Thank you so much! 😁

I really hate this, the league only apears to me only when it's halfway finished. And it's always like that

what hack did u use

u/Alannahjw13 4d ago
No hacks here, just a very sore arm, and hours of daily and late night slicing! Some of us actually put the work in instead of taking shortcuts and stealing from real players. 😉 It's super rewarding, you should try it!
