Infinite League Boosts Exploit

Hi Jack and the rest of the iGP Manager team,


Some of my league co-hosts and I have observed a concerning exploit that allows players to generate unlimited boosts. The issue is that whenever you create a new account, the first "Daily Donut" available always contains a boost. This can be systematically exploited to amass unlimited League Boosts without spending a single penny.


Why is this concerning for the game?



  1. This encourages the proliferation of ghost accounts, which is a serious issue for any online game.

  2. League Boosts were designed to ensure the economic viability of the iGP Manager project. Having an exploit that allows for free and unlimited boosts is very concerning from an economic perspective.



A potential way to tackle the issue would be to ensure that only accounts actively participating in a league can access the Daily Donut. That would place an easy barrier on the exploit and improve the league ecosystem.


Best wishes to the team, hope the new update rocks!

This is a very urgent matter.

I think it's important that mods and the CEO himself work to find a solution, for example, limiting donuts for the same level you unlock leagues, so player has to actually play and rank up to be able to unlock donuts.

Or maybe just deactivating the 100% spawn rate on lvl 1 accounts.

I don’t think this is really such a big problem. At least on mobile, it’s impossible to time the daily donut and get the reward you want. 


Sometimes the speed of the spin increases or decreases and also sometimes you get a few more degrees of rotation at the end of the spin and sometimes you don’t.

Even if you were to create multiple accounts you wouldn’t get that many boosts, it would need an absurd amount of tries I think.

I want to make clear that I didn’t know about this bug nor I’m planning about using it.
