Lefty here!!



I am currently on level 440 on Candy Crush. I like to make Candy Crush wiki pages. Here are some stats about me playing Candy Crush: I really don't get the fuss over level 65. I can beat it using just half the moves. I also beat 320 on my very first try, level 323 on my third and 342 also on my third.
 * Date started: August 19 2012
 * Level: 440
 * Levels I found hard (stuck for 48+ hours): 19, 33, 70, 77, 86, 92, 97, 98, 125, 130, 135, 140, 147, 152, 158, 167, 180, 181, 191, 197, 201, 213, 234, 241, 273, 275, 285, 290, 305, 311, 315, 340, 347, 350, 361, 377, 394, 419, 434, 437.
 * Levels I was stuck on for 3 weeks: 19 (I did this level in August 2012 - it has had a HUGE nerf since), 98, 140, 147, 167, 181, 290, 311, 350, 361, 377, 419.
 * Level I was stuck on the longest: 361.
 * Levels I shamelessly used boosters: 98, 125, 158, 167, 181, possibly 213, 310, 311, 437, 443.
 * Favourite level: Gotta be 200!

Hard Levels

 * 19 - OMG!! I actually quit for 2 weeks on this level. This was before it was made easy.
 * 29 - Really? Is it supposed to be hard?
 * 30 - HARD. I HATED this level and I hope to never have to do it again.
 * 33 - Had me stuck for a week.
 * 35 - First try.
 * 45 - Never had a problem.
 * 50 - First try.
 * 56 - I don't remember this level but I've heard it's meant to be hard.
 * 65 - Third try. Never had a problem. I personally would grade it "Considerably easy" but I would get so pounced on for that.
 * 70 - Two terror filled days. 48 hours of constant trying and failing. Approximately 150 attempts, hundreds of adverts watched, and needed to make fake Facebook accounts just to get me through it. With boosters. Then did it again and won it first time.
 * 77 - Yes this took quite a few tries but it wasn't too bad.
 * 79 - Didn't even know it was supposed to be hard.
 * 86 - Had me stuck for a few days this one. Was making a video called "I suck at candy crush" showing 30 failures at this level, but then (sadly?) beat it on the 15th run.
 * 92 - I almost gave up on this level. It was just so damn boring.
 * 95 - I don't remember this level but everyone's saying it is hard so I'm guessing it is.
 * 97 - Wasn't too bad. Did it after about 10 tries.
 * 98 - Three terror filled weeks. THREE. WEEKS. I sent email after email to king to nerf the level. Put the target score down to 90,000 (it was 110,000). Raged. Hit the keyboard. Hit the moniter, then I finally beat it, ironically with 2 stars.
 * 100 - Never ever ever had a problem. Failed this level only once and there were 2 jellies left.
 * 102 - Do not remember this level.
 * 109 - I don't remember this level at ALL.
 * 117 - Hard? Really?
 * 125 - Did it on my first try. With boosters. I heard what a nightmare this level was and I was eager to get into Wafer Wharf to do objective levels, couldn't be bothered to spend weeks on this level, so I bailed myself out.
 * 130 - I don't remember this too well but I don't think I had too much of a problem.
 * 135 - Same with 130.
 * 140 - Utterly. Utterly hopeless. I don't know HOW long I was stuck on this level. I lost count. It felt like 1000 years stuck on Candy Crush's most boring level. So much rage. So much anger. So much swearing. What must have been 300 attempts, with constant almost victories, sometimes being 2 candies off, before finally beating this godawful level.
 * 147 - Put 140 to shame. 'Nuff said.
 * 149 - Had no trouble with this level at all.
 * 152 - This level drove me MAD. Having just beaten 147 I was so annoyed to find another hard level so soon. Over 2 days and 40 attempts before bailing myself out with lollipop hammers.
 * 158 - Yesss this one was hard. I kinda just did it. Over and over again.
 * 162 - First try.
 * 165 - First try.
 * 167 - This level had me standing for 2 weeks before bailing myself out with a lollipop hammer.
 * 169 - This level took about 20 tries but I did them all at once. Boy did I rage. I kept getting the orders but failing the goddamn target score.
 * 180 - I quit at this point for a bit. I realised I had reached Hell's Cluster and I therefore quit. I returned to the game a bit later and 80 tries later, I had moved on to...........
 * 181 - Level 181!!!!!!! Let me just say that I would rather be forced to play level 140 on a loop with my nuts being ground up in an eternal blender than redo this level. This level would make Chuck Norris smash his computer with rage.
 * 183 - Third try.
 * 184 - Took a few goes and then got uber-lucky by getting a striped and wrapped inside the middle.
 * 191 - Had me stuck for some time. Stupid bombs.
 * 197 - Took a few tries but my eagerness for level 200 kept me going.
 * 201 - I don't remember this too well, all I remember is being stuck for a while.
 * 208 - Took a good few tries.
 * 213 - Ohhhhh god was this level the death of me. This was before they nerfed it the second time and was still in its "Very hard" state. I can't remember if I used a booster or not.
 * 215 - Had a little trouble with this one due to the colour bomb + colour bomb combo.
 * 234 - Confused the hell out of me.
 * 241 - THIS LEVEL NEEDS TO DIE!!! I don't know how long I was stuck here but it took well over 75 attempts.
 * 245 - Didn't know this level was supposed to be hard.
 * 265 - Took a few tries.
 * 270 - Took a few more tries.
 * 273 - I was actually stuck here for quite some time. I didn't realise how hard this level was going to be.
 * 275 - Stuck here for a good few days. I was so glad when I finally beat this level but I didn't mind being stuck here as it was actually quite a fun level for me.
 * 277 - Four tries and done.
 * 285 - I think I was stuck here for 24 hours or so. Not too bad.
 * 290 - I was stuck here longer than I was 275. Unlike 275, this level I found to be quite boring so it was annoying being stuck here. Gave up for a few days.
 * 305 - A whole day of failed attempts. An entire day. Then I woke up the next morning and pwned this level first try. How the hell does that work!?
 * 311 - This level was utter HELL. I never even came CLOSE to winning this level. Three weeks later I had to bail myself out using two lollipop hammers :/ I'm a dirty rotten cheater I know.
 * 320 - First try. Not hard at ALL. I have no idea why people say this level is hard.
 * 323 - Third try. Again, dunno what is supposed to be so hard about this level.
 * 325 - Had no trouble at all. Didn't even know this was supposed to be a very hard level.
 * 335 - Don't remember this level but I've heard it's supposed to be hard.
 * 340 - Took a good few tries.
 * 341 - About six tries. Not too bad after all I'd heard about this level.
 * 342 - "OMFG THIS IS THE HARDEST LEVEL EVER!!!" having heard that 60 times, I was quite scared about this level, having just done a couple of harder ones. I was laughing when I got SUGAR CRUSH on my third try.
 * 347 - Piece of CRAP. This level pissed me off SO MUCH I almost rage quit. My friend who I'd played with since the start rage quitted this level. One attempt in 20 would see me mix the colour bomb and wrapped candy ONCE. After 2 weeks, immaculate luck resulted in me being able to make the second mix in my last move. I cheared the house down.
 * 348 - I know this level isn't supposed to be hard, but it drove me MAD. Fifty tries on this crap.
 * 350 - Another insanely hard level. I thought, having flown through 320, 323 and 342 that this would be easy. BOY was I wrong. I have no idea how long I was stuck here for, but it was well over a week. Possibly even a month. I dunno. I just got lucky and did it boosterless. That's really the only way to do level 350 - have the candies fall in exactly the right place and BAM, piece of cake.
 * 361 - Put 147, 181, 311 and 350 to shame. 'Nuff said.
 * 365 - Stuck on this level for an entire day. I HATED this level. It wasn't too hard, but it was just soo BORING!!! Glad I was only here for a day. I would've lost my mind otherwise.
 * 375 - I have no IDEA why I was stuck here for as long as I was. Almost three weeks! Bad luck I guess.
 * 377 - This level can just go die in a fire.
 * 380 - Not hard. Only took 10 tries or so.
 * 382 - Fourth try.
 * 391 - Took several tries. Got 1 star, which was a bit annoying.
 * 394 - Stuck for over a week. Piece of crap. Boring as hell.

I am now nearing level 410. I can just tell that will be the end of the line for me. And if it isn't then 425 will. Dark and difficult times lie ahead. Will I ever get through the game's hardest episode - Soda Swamp?

UPDATE: SODA SWAMP IS BEATEN WOOOHOOOOOO!!!

The Birth of Candy Crush Saga Wiki
This wiki was created on December 22 2012 at exactly 1:45pm.

The first page on this wiki was "Levels". I decided to create a candy crush wiki as there wasn't one existing, and one of the first things I did was make the table about level types and their number of appearances and percentage. I collected these stats because I was bored, so I decided to make a wiki and dump the stats in there, as I felt I needed to share my useless stats somewhere. Bearing in mind there were only 230 levels when I collected these stats (I collected them in October) and when I originally collected them, there were only 97 jelly levels! Not to mention 59 ingredient drop levels and only 30-something candy order levels!!!!!

I felt I needed to share my useless stats with the world, so I hit that button and created the levels page. By then there were about 290 levels, but I had been updating my excel document with each new episode, and have done right up until the end (level 500). This also explains how I've so readily had the percentage of appearances.

In the whole month of January 2013, there was not a single edit, comment, creation, blog post or category adding at all. This wiki lay dead. By the end of December there were only 2 pages - Levels and the Candy Crush Saga page itself. And the homepage, which doesn't really count. And the homepage was just a single paragraph explaining the basics of candy crush!

So January was a pretty rotten month. I would view my dead wiki every now and again. This was actually the third wiki I had created - the first two got totally burried and died. So I knew Candy Crush Saga Wiki would suffer the same fate. Then I just stopped caring. I stopped viewing the CCSW. What was the point? I was the only visitor. Then in February, I noticed a single comment on the "Levels" page, telling me this page was very informative. I thought about the amount of time it took to collect this stats, and realised I had wasted my time. These statistics were wasted on the world that was oblivious to this dead wiki.

Throughout the entire month of February, only 15 edits were made in total on this wiki and that includes comments. By the end, there was a third page, Candies. March went by and I never even looked at this wiki. But there was one visit where I went on and there were about 6 pages, none of which I had made. Was this wiki slowly starting to bubble to life?

I never expected it after so many months of this wiki being dead, but more and more pages were created. I created a lot of pages covering the basic elements. And before I knew it there was a page for every episode. But this was still a very small wiki. It needed time to take off. It did take an awful long time, but around about June, things started to come to life. June saw over 1500 edits in its 30 days, but in July, something major happened to this wiki - pages were made for every level. It was something I was against at first, as it would mean too many pages and they'd never be edited. Heck, by the end of July, the only level pages fully formatted where the first eight levels!!!

Through August, the wiki grew and grew and grew. I thought it would take about 5 years to get all the level pages done, especially with new levels coming all the time, but by then, this wiki had already formed its own community. The pages were done in no time. Yes, there are some stubs towards the end, but it has taken only 4 months to get this far. I thought it would take 15 times longer than that.

And now we reach December 2013. Almost a year after the creation of this wiki. Last month saw nearly 20,000 edits to this wiki, which is almost 20,000 edits better than we did in this wiki's first three months combined!! I am amazed at how rapidly this wiki grew - once something like this starts, it will grow exponentially.

And now we only have to wait to see what the future holds. As of December 3, we've hit 1500 edits, and we're barely 72 hours into the month!

So, want to see the document that eventually lead to the birth of this place? After all, this section you've just read wouldn't exist if it weren't for that document.
