[QUOTE="Luobo, post: 82946, member: 2262"] After the latest update I can no longer abuse the bug. Cat's officially out of the bag then I guess, and we're free to discuss how the bug actually worked. All it took was the press of a single button (1!) while the game was loading to totally mess up the leader board of every table in the game. Since the menu system is so clumsy - you can't simply tap the table you want to play, you must scroll through the list of tables until the one you want to play appears in the center, and [B]then [/B]tap it - I'm surprised not everyone ended up discovering the bug after accidentally loading the wrong table and immediately pressing the back button. The bug had two major "benefits": 1) You could load up AFM, cancel, go to another table, which would make AFM start, but with the logo and scoring going towards the last selected table, for easy high scores. You'd get the HofF-points as well.
