Chessington World of Adventures Resort

[Zeock]

A countdown timer has appeared on the World of Jumanji competition page. If I've worked it out right game one will unlock at 9am tomorrow.

I've worked it out as 10am, but I definitely could be wrong, not good at even simple numbers

If you two want confirmation, it is 10am.

Don't waste your time on these games, winners probably already chosen like the last nemesis ride was (allegedly)

The first game is good but the scoring and ranking system is a bit odd and confusing.

 

[Zeock]

I got 407 on the first Jumanji game. What did you get?

Can't remember, but I haven't been able to match it on subsequent goes. Had a very odd issue though after my first go where it displays a different nickname to mine on the leaderboard page where it says "your score".

Just noticed (after improving my own score) that Jack Silkstone has entered, getting an incredible 31337 points, and rising to the top of the leaderboard!

Does a higher score mean more chance of winning?

I don't think so, you can enter an email address after every go. Think it just encourages people to keep playing.

Seems to be some hack to get a massive score:

 

[Alsty]

2147483647 is the maximum value for a signed 32-bit integer. I'm guessing there are some security issues with their game...

 

[Zeock]

This turned out well...
Next game, perhaps Chessington should start focusing on security?

What they should have done is made it so players have to create an account and log in to play the games. That way captchas could be used to stop bots.

Feel a lot of people are just upset this DG95 has beaten them so comprehensively.

 

[Alsty]

It's not even bots. I just had a play of the game to see how it works and it's just an unsecured web request with your nickname, email address, time and score. You can just call that with whatever values you want and it presumably accepts it without any validation whatsoever.

Lawl. Spent enough years designing games like this for companies and seeing people getting their fingers burnt with leaderboards. Nice to be watching it from afar for a change

Just need some checks to throw this gif back if the score seems abnormally high tbh

Can’t wait till DG95 gets announced as the winner of the Blackpool Pleasure Beach Ride Tester job competition as well!

Haven't you heard I got the job weeks ago...
Still waiting for the paperwork though.

Merlin Annual Pass on Facebook has announced "a couple" of ride closures for this weekend....

Chessington World of Adventures Resort Dragon’s Fury, KOBRA, Rattlesnake, Trawler Trouble, Scorpion Express and the SEA LIFE Aquarium will not be open. Tiger Rock may operate on the day with restrictions.

Maybe it's easier to list the things that will be open?

So Vampire is the only coaster open?!
This isn't going to end well...
