I have a bit of speculation, and it ain't pretty.😕 What if that was a bot-farm put there in order to get me to spend more gold to retake first place?

I have spent a few gold to finish hatchings in the past two days. I like to keep the nest and breeding den moving along, so I often spend 2-5 gold to clear the nest when it's running a little behind the den. But, since my group's event scores are so close, yesterday I took the lead on 2 separate occasions when I used a little gold to finish hatchings.

A bot programmed to look at gold spending through just the lens of the LB event would think I was spending that gold to increase my ranking, and not as normal game play. Putting a 'player' 70 points ahead of me might get me to spend more gold to overtake them.

Do I sound paranoid, or what?
