MM app store rating

There were many comments / post about people rating MM app to be 1 star

Checked it out yesterday and saw only 22 "1 star rating"

Selected 1 star and post a review title " MM is most expensive 'free game'"

It doesn't allow me to post, despite repeated attempts.

Today I checked back, it has 23 "1star" rating. Mine was uploaded.

So, friends, please check back that your rating and comments were added!

In contrast, there are 1130 "5 stars" rating out of total 1441 votes.

Is this rating system skewed???

I think it is skewed due to the offer of 5 diamonds for a rating when you are in the early stages of playing. Diamonds are scarce at that point and you haven't found the pitfalls of the game yet!

I suspect Apple have noticed the comments about GI giving diamonds for 5 star reviews now Notice the star rating is down to 2 for MM in the top grossing apps list. It was 5 star at number 3 yesterday and today it is 2 star at number 6. Yay for consumer power - it got rid of Aparteid in S Africa in the 80s after all

There seems to be some confusion as to why people are seeing different ratings for this game. Apple has different stores for different areas of the world. For example, I live in the USA; if I travel to Europe I can't use the app store or iTunes since the coding is different than for Europe than it is for the US. To sum up we need to encourage everyone from all countries around the world to unite and rate the game accordingly. Hope this helps

Yeh it must do, I'm in the uk and only has a 2 star rating overall. 18 5 stars vs 56 1 stars lol

I went to iTunes today and took a look. My 1-star review is there. However, the option of answering 'Was this review helpful? yes/no' doesn't seem to be working so I couldn't downvote the 5 star bribee's. I did however 'Report a concern', where I pointed out I disagreed with the review because GI were bribing people for those 5 stars!

From the UK, as of today: 2 stars/168 total ratings: 5 stars/22, 1 star/111 and a few sitting on the fence inbetween. It is working!

[Someone even has a negative review called Bribe, where they mention the 5 star/5 diamond bribe, lol. Get in! ]

With just about every update I've gone in and rated the game, never better then 3 stars. I have always pointed out in my comments that the majority of 5 star ratings are due to the fact that they got free in app currency for the rating. Make sure to include that in your comments section!

c'mon guys still only 177 ratings on there, lets get lots more one stars for mm

Is it horrible that it tickles me to see that MM has dropped from the the number 3 top grossing app to number 7 in the last 15 hours?

That makes you a terrible person. And me! Power to the people!

Well, power to MMUFF members anyway. Depressingly, all those FB people are too busy queuing up for their auditions for The Jeremy Kyle Show, rather than get involved.

Next on The Jeremy Kyle Show:
'I left you/had a baby with a stranger/slept with your mother/robbed my family' c'os they like promised me MM diamonds mate!'

Google 'Jeremy Kyle' if you don't get it!!!

[oops, should have said 'the majority of FB people' perhaps! Watching my reputation on here slide right down now!] Oh well, que sera sera.

They have been knocked down to #10 in the US on the list of top grossing apps.

Still at a 2 star rating though. We need to encourage more people to rate the app with one star!

I have been marking the 1 star reviews as helpful and the 4 and 5 star reviews as not helpful so hopefully the more critical reviews will begin to show up on the front page of the app.

You can only rate the reviews as helpful or not helpful from a computer through iTunes/store not through the iPad

Also, if you are on your computer, you have the option to report a review to Apple. I chose a 5 star review and reported it, stating that GI inflates their ratings by rewarding their brand new customers with in app currency for writing a five star review.

I have been unable even on the computer to rate review helpful or not as I wanted to push the 1 stars to the top

Canadian app store 2 stars average, 76 ratings. And it is not in the top 100 apps. It is 23 for top grossing.

i tried to post a comment, but the app store says I haven't downloaded the game.I tried posting both through the app store on my computer, and on my iPad.
Guess what- the game is on my iPad and I've been playing it for a month.
Also, I lost diamonds!! Down from 18 to 5 -no reason.

email support and they will give back your diamonds, here's some bigwigs if you have trouble getting thru os@game-insight.com or leonid@game-insight.com

I have been not only been able to give out one star ratings on each of my two iPads- but using my friends and family's iPads to give one stars as often as I can on their iPads as well! LMAO every time I find my reviews!

NO, I AM NOT AT ALL BITTER:))) just resourceful

This happened to me too. Then I realized that I had downloaded the game under a different Apple ID than the one I was currently signed in to. Do you happen to have a couple different iTunes accounts in the family?

Last night I rated MM 1star and posted a comment

The most expensive 'free game'

despite asking players for feedback on Game Insight face book page, they decide to make the game more costly to play, against most player appeal.

Despite the previous boycott and collective appeal for players not to buy diamonds, rate MM 1 star, GI appear to listen n issue out an official reply, citing more often than not, " this is because of balance of game". Give out 50 diamonds.

This new upgrade on Selena room brought along quest that requires insane amount of oil can and a low drop rate. There are other challenging requirements, an estimate cost to open Selena room is $$200 plus. This means estimate 1500 to2000 diamonds.

I love challenges n like to solve mysteries, but will not pay to just open 1room n be frustrated with game crashing on me even in own manor, fear of losing all the collection that I've acquired because some players do have to start over with each new update.

Like your review Pauline and thanks for the reminder. I was thinking earlier today I should go and rate MM again but with the usual weekday morning rush it slipped my mind. Off to do it now

Go Camille go!

I do love the social part of this game ... There are so many good people!!!
