Our games reward a player's skill - and as in real life, some players happen to be more skilled in a particular game than others. Your skill should improve as you practice, and those players who seem to win a lot of Tournaments most probably started off just like you!
Here are some helpful suggestions: if you've been playing in Tournaments with a lot of players, (1) try entering tournaments with fewer players; (2) try playing at different times of the day, when there will be a different mix of people competing or (3) try a different game; perhaps the one you've been playing just isn't your forte.

Our games are based primarily on skill. It's the skill of the player, not luck, which determines the outcome of our Tournaments. Even in games where there seems to be a minor element of chance, such element of chance has been significantly reduced through our proprietary algorithms.

Within the same tournament, all players are assured the same difficulty level. Players of different skill ranges will only be able to see/enter tournaments according to their level of skill.

We have a number of methods for detecting people that are cheating, and will VOID Tournament results and TERMINATE player accounts of those attempting to cheat.
