I checked it out and that Island looks legit to me. The top section may not be developed, but all the floating islands are built and they've made good headway into the new expansion area. Lots of older epic dragons, too.

They are just using real money and probably did a bunch of speed breeding in both dens with Bingo boosts activated. Some people have lots of disposable income and games are their leisure activity. It's no different than someone spending money on going to the movies a lot, or going out to the bar every weekend.

Leaderboards exist for S8 to make money. The format is set up that way and always has been. S8 is a business and they need to make a profit to stay in business, so I am happy there are players out there willing to spend a bundle- they make free play possible for everyone else. I accepted long ago that Leaderboards (and now World Events) are for the "Haves" and there is no use getting frustrated with it. It is what it is.

What would be nice is if they extended the event back to 11 days or lowered the point requirements on the milestones. That way us regular folk could enjoy the event by earning the milestone dragons while the Haves dump their money on the Grand Prize. Everybody wins that way.
