Is this a glitch, an in game exploit or is someone cheating?

While attempting to claim the Martian Throne in Bloons Adventure Time, I was notified that someone else had claimed it and that I had to beat level 105. This happened before I had reached round 10. I had checked to see if anyone else was ahead of me before I started the game, and there was not. What I want to know is how someone could reach round 105 from round 0 before I could reach round 10. My computer is slow, but not that slow.

It happened again. This time they (a different they than last time) achieved round 155 in less time than it took me to get to round 22. This just isn't right and I can't help but feel that this is something that needs to be addressed. If it was just me being affected I could probably let it slide, but there are others who have to deal with it as well.

Pretty sure the devs stopped working on this game a while ago already. I don't think there is much to be done.

SUNNYLOVEU is cheating. You can't suddenly take the Martian throne and simultaneously be nearly 100 rounds ahead in any legitimate way. There should be some way to deal with that ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ ♥♥♥♥. It took me 4 hours to get to round 58. When he took the throne from me it was at level 155. There was no announce for any levels between 58 and 155. When SUNNYLOVEU takes the throne it is ALWAYS announced that the new round to beat is 156.

♥♥♥♥ you Steam for censoring my post. Censorship is bad. Self censorship is dishonest. How dare you expect me to be dishonest? ♥♥♥♥ you ♥♥♥♥ you ♥♥♥♥ you.

Is your vocabulary limited to swears and insults then? Insulting people isn't going to help anyone, and even less yourself.

My initial post would have been peppered with swears and insults were that the limit of my vocabulary. When you need to say something, just say it. Words exist to be used and not using them when the occasion warrants is just lying to yourself. Anger is a legitimate emotion. Expressing that anger can be therapeutic and can actually improve your state of mind. While I certainly swore, I did not insult anyone. Limits on what a person is allowed to say are vile and despicable. How are you to know when someone is a hateful and evil piece of ♥♥♥♥ if they are restrained from spewing their odious filth? Swears and insults are not necessarily odious filth (though they can be), unlike things such as holocaust denial, anti-LGBTQ rhetoric and any other anti-[insert any other groups of people here] rhetoric. Racism and threats also count as odious filth in all cases, bar none.

None of that addresses the issue of SUNNYLOVEU and others cheating. Just because there is no one cheating in my current Martian Throne competition does not make the problem go away. It just means that someone else is being cheated. Is there no to way put a stop to the cheating? That is the actual issue.
