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 wonder as well. I see that the #1 person now has a second ranking under the same name (#49). How has he managed to pass everyone again? Also, the people with 46 trees and 930300 points, 48 trees 961000

    60 trees 1175000. I have 65 trees and 741980.

    I am based in the US, and I am experiencing the same as you. I see the top leaderboard users still generating a new e-tree every few days (like I used to be able to do) but with the new points system, it takes weeks for me to earn a new e-tree. It's a demotivator and I have also stopped doing all the tasks everyday, considering quitting it altogether.

    Now found that e-Tree sidebar has disappeared on all devices but I can still access it as a webpage on Edge by typing "edge://etree/?sharedHeader=1". Also, I've found I don't need to time points to hit 10,000 on iOS app to be awarded a tree (whether they are actually being planted or not, who knows?).

    I'm not 100% sure they are cheating, but the amount of points they all gained over 2 days, is just too suspicious to me. At most everyone can only get a couple of thousands points per day, not hundreds of thousands and millions of points
