I'd like to see the leaderboard changed back to where you can pull up friends only.

I would like MyT to follow their own rules and have the premium rooms give no less than 6 passes per play. They put up a message that says something like "play a premium room for more rewards" but then will give you 5 which is NOT more as you can also receive 5 from a non-premium. Since you have to also spend your access passes to play the premium the minimum reward SHOULD be greater but they contradict their own statement when rewarding only 5. The difference between a minimum of 5 passes vs a minimum of 6 passes over the course of earning 3000 passes (which is still probably not enough to reach virtuoso on an event room) is 100 plays. So it makes a difference when they give you 5 instead of 6.

And just HOW do they determine how many passes that you will get anyway? From my experience it is not based on how fast you finish the room, although that would probably be a fair way to do it. It also doesn't appear to be based on whether you had to use tools (or not) or on how much energy the room costs to play. I used to think it was just random "luck of the draw" but my results of late no longer lead me to that conclusion.

The reason all of this concerns me right now is because lately I have been getting the minimum of 5 on premium rooms almost every time and it is becoming a real drag. I mean I RARELY get 8 and only occasionally 6 or 7. And I have NEVER gotten more than 8 even though I have seen posts on here where some players have gotten as many as 10! Assuming the range of passes they give is 5 to 8 and that one player always got 5 and another player always got 8 (which I know is not what happens in real life but I just want to keep it simple), in order to earn 100 event passes one player would have to play 12.5 times (really 13 times while earning 4 extra passes) while the other would have to play 20 times. That means one player would have to play SEVEN additional times to get (almost) the same number of passes as the other! And that is only to earn 100 passes. Using the same premise, it would take a 5 pass earner an additional 225 plays to collect 3000 total passes than it would an 8 pass earner to collect 3000 total passes. That is a LOT of additional play just to get the same number of rewards.
