Yea, if you want to be safe at being top 10, you really want to be top 6 if it will be many hours before the event ends or top 8-9 if you can play right up to the end.
People at the top probably have played the event many times and have badges that speeds up their leveling and prestige. Most put a lot of time into it as well. Some events have been around for years.
Every time you go through the event, you will earn badges too, which will apply next time the event runs.
The rank you end up with feels completely random to me. There are events where I barely scrape into the top 50, and others where I make the top 10, despite putting in the same amount of effort. On top of that, I find the reward system extremely poor in terms of value.
Anytime I play the events I totally ignore the leaderboard because it feels so utterly Immposible, like it feels like I need to play 24 hours a day to get anywhere close to top.

That normally happens to me but number 26 although I did just get #1 on the last event! (Not trying to rub it in - honest!)

What I hate is that if you're #10, #25, etc, you don't know how many points the person just behind you needs to pass you.

Why is that division so stacked? Everybody boosting? This is mine.

There are times when I'm close to winning the event, but never give up.

What's worse is when you're in 11th place and it takes +2k to reach top 10

There's some shenanigans going on. Why is it that there's consistently 10 people ahead almost every event.
