'''QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS! IN NO PARTICULAR ORDER EXCEPT THE FINAL ONE.'''

Is it possible to play Powerball and win a prize of over 10 thousand dollars?

YES.

Is it possible to complete Level 1180 without boosters?

YES.

Which is more likely, winning over 10 thousand dollars as noted above or passing the level without boosters.

THE JURY IS OUT.

Will King nerf this level?

THE JURY IS OUT.

Will King PERMANENTLY lose a lot of Candy Crush players as a result of this level?

YES.

Do they care?

THE JURY IS OUT BUT MY GUT TELLS ME NO.

Will I ever play this level again in its current (un-nerfed) form?

NO.

IS THE LEVEL POORLY-DESIGNED?

'''ABSOLUTELY. FOR ONE THING THE REDUNDANT REQUIREMENT OF 12 SINGLE STRIPES IS PERPOSTEROUS. MAYBE A PROGRAMMER TREAINEE CAME UP WITH THAT IDEA.'''

IS THE WORST THING ABOUT THIS LEVEL THE FACT THAT IS LUCK-BASED?

'''ABSOLUTELY NOT. IN MY OPINION THE WORST THING ABOUT THIS LEVEL IS THE FACT THAT MYSTERY CANDIES CANNOT RE-SPAWN. ONCE THEY ARE GONE FROM THE BOARD, THERE WILL BE NO MORE. IT IS THAT FACT ALONE THAT MAKES THIS LEVEL VERY CLOSE TO IMPOSSIBLE WITHOUT USING BOOSTERS.'''

WHAT WOULD BE THE BEST NERF?

'''I THINK ALLOWING MYSTERY CANDIES TO RE-SPAWN (RE-APPEAR) WOULD BE BY FAR THE BEST NERF. REDUCING THE LEVEL TO FOUR COLORS WOULD ALSO BE A BIGGIE BECAUSE IT WOULD BE MUCH EASIER TO FORM BOMBS AND STRIPES. THOSE WOULD BE PROBABLY BE THE TWO BEST ONES, IN THAT ORDER. ANOTHER POSSIBILTY WOULD BE CUTTING THE REQUIREMENTS: INSTEAD OF 8-4 HOW ABOUT 6-3 OR EVEN 4-2? DEFINITELY THE SUPERFLOUOUS SINGLE STRIPE REQUIREMENT SHOULD BE DONE AWAY WITH BUT, FRANKLY, THAT WOULD HAVE NO EFFECT ON THE DIFFICULTY BECAUSE EVERYBODY CAN EASILY FULFILL THAT PORTION OF THE CANDY ORDER.'''

AM I DISGUSTED?

YES AND I ESTIMATE (THOUGH NOT SCIENTIFICALLY) THAT POSSIBLY 99 OUT OF 100 PEOPLE FEEL THE SAME WAY AS I DO.

FINALLY: DOES THE APPTIPPER.COM SOLUTION PROVIDE ANY INDICATION OF A HELPFUL STRATEGY?

'''MAYBE BUT, IF SO, I DO NOT SEE IT. IF SOMEONE LEARNS ANYTHING FROM WATCHING THAT VIDEO (COMPLETION WITHOUT BOOSTERS), PLEASE LET US KNOW.'''
