The most Ive made is 1500 or so how much do you sell for?? my avg. price is 34. 604 hours played, 72 species and all! only 9102 is my money earned, how!?!?!?!

The way to earn more money early in the game is to breed fish that will sell for at least $50 (there are several that will survive to at least age 50 in your starting environment) and keep breeding those fish over and over until you can get to Level 3 of Fish Environment. You will have some failures as you experiment with cross-breeding, and a lot of the babies will probably die until you get to a better fish environment, but the payoff is worth it. Playing it safe and breeding only common fish will allow you to make money, but it will take a lot longer, since most of them sell for very low prices.

Thanks barbara but I hav all 3 of everythin! the most i get is 250 and wen i get bak im goin to 350 4 the firearrow. but wen u look at mimi the avg. price is 4750 how?

Actually that's a really good question. How are people managing to have an AVERAGE selling price of $9769?

That's impossible isn't it?

Current #20 in the list - Wangtze - zero hours played and yet an average selling price of $8865

Is it only possible by cheating? If so, then the whole stats idea has become worthless and genuine players are being left out of the list because of it.

All it takes is for someone to intercept the data being sent out from FT4Win and edit it to give the results they want, isn't it?

I don't know how Arthur is going to deal with that situation. There was an unfortunate bug in the initial release. That bug was quickly fixed, and only a few people have that version, but, as you can see, it really messes up the stats.

A game that I played (which is at this moment #9 on the list) is probably representative of a "best case" game without cheating, and I only had an average price of $235 per fish after selling Canary Fire-Arrows for most of the game.

If the online page can identify which version a person has, can it not choose to ignore the stats? It isn't at all an issue for those with the cheaty version to upgrade to a non cheaty version I assume? There must be a 'sense' check that can be done based on certain parameters too.

If the average fish selling price exceeds the selling prices possible in the game then surely those results can be removed.

This problem otherwise has the potential to kill the online stats completely - who can compete against those numbers?

I agree with you. They're pretty useless right now.

Would it be possible to rate the list on another statistic, say breeds found, rather than money?

I've been breeding and selling canary fire arrows like crazy, and according to the in-game stats I'm ranked 4 (modest smirk; I did it all legally, achieving a modest $218 per fish) but the online page doesn't feature me at all, it's full of people who've apparently fiddled it, apart from Barbara, Lilly and Cecil, who shine as beacons of rectitude.
