[QUOTE="Kerguelan, post: 291187, member: 6237"] Has anyone else noticed that since the Monster Bash & CFTBL update on iOS, the leaderboards for the challenges are no longer listed for any of the tables, only the four Arcade play variations for each table are listed? Each challenge you play still give you rank on the leaderboard, but there's no way to see the board afterwards. My suggestion for improving the challenge leaderboards, would be to grade the target score for the easy, medium and hard levels according to how well each player scored on that challange for that table the previous time, instead of giving everyone the same target (that some find too easy even at the hard level, but others find too difficult) every time that challenge comes around for that table. The only variations I see are between the four challenge slots on the menu, with the "Pro level" easy/medium/hard targets being set a bit higher than for the other three challenge slots. I guess for this to work, it would also be necessary to fix the bug that starts each challenge with the hard target score for the easy reward, before going to medium and back to hard again, assuming you don't buy into a reset before the 24hr timer expires, which does give you any easy one to start with. So each time the round of challenges is completed, increase the target score required at each grade by a percentage. If a player doesn't complete all 3 grades of a challenge keep the target score the same the next time that comes around for that table. This way the players have a chance to work Up the leaderboard and start to improve the scores they set for the older tables before the challenge targets were reduced. Also the challenge difficulty advances with the experience and skill (or sometimes luck) of the player [/QUOTE]
