Has Microsoft E-Tree Been Exploited?

A handful of new users jumped to the top of the leaderboard with round-number points in the millions. Disconcerting to legitimate and dedicated users. Suspicious and conspicuous. Current number 6, Yggdrasil, was in clear first place, at least for the last few months.

    I have stopped playing , sad really after 485 days straight!! good idea while it lasted, but like all these things there will be people who cheat and try and buck the system. It will be a relief in a way not to have to remember to click an extra 3 times a day to get those 600 points!!

    I think this whole e-tree program is now totally broken, today I completed a tree, no longer asked me to plant it and grow a new one, Now tree takes 50,000 points to complete rather than 10,000 . Each level is now 5000 points x 10 levels. No bonuses are available when completing tree with sidebar app, the phone app resets back to zero all the time even though you complete it everyday. Also the e-tree no longer works on all edge browser versions, it only works after installing latest beta edge version on my pc. To be honest I dont think I will bother with this anymore, the leader board is totally broken with new users having very few planted trees but massive points massed suddenly appearing on the league table board. Well done MS another "feature" tested application.

    Me too! I was on level 6 and then halfway through the day jumped back to level 4 but with the same number of points. I don't have a goal on mine (but I assume it will be the same as yours as it is taking a long time to climb up) and the people with barely any tress and excess points are still there. What on earth is going on?!

    If you put the url in the URL bar directly, you might be able to access your e-tree sidebar:
