In a previous post, it was mentioned that only 1.5% of the players had a score in one or more of the leader-boards. Since the release of MultiBingo 1.3, this has changed somehow. Some observations.
Up to MultiBingo 1.2, the presented digits were chosen random. So, it was possible that a player had to wait a long time for the needed digit(s) to end a game. In MultiBingo 1.3, this is changed: for the level "Novice", all presented digits can be used somewhere on the card. Apparently, this change made that far more players completed a game, and so got mentioned in a leader-board. A small step in coding, but a big step in user experience.
From the first version of the game, several levels exists (with different numbers of smileys on the card at the start) and two modes exists (game ends at "bingo" or game ends at "full card"). The leader-boards show, that the option "full card" is hardly used. At the "Novice" level, the leader-board for "bingo" has 10x as much players as the leader-board for "full card". The leader-boards also show, that most players play at the easiest level ("Novice"). The number of players in the leader-boards "Novice", "Expert" and "Master" are about 10:3:1.
