• If you’ve made it this far, you’ll receive a prize no matter what, but the higher you rank, the bigger the prizes
  

Other Things to Know

Join the chaos and compete for prizes! This week the event takes place in Stroke Play coin games.

It’s simple. Play games, earn points and win prizes.
You automatically enter the chaos by playing in special Coin Chaos coin rooms that feature point multipliers. The bigger the room, the bigger the multiplier.

Earn points by completing actions on the scoring list.
You’ll then be ranked on daily, weekend and global leaderboards depending on when and how much you play.

• Daily Leaderboard - Each weekday individually
  
• Weekend Leaderboard - Saturday and Sunday combined
  
• Global Leaderboard - Entire event duration
  

Each leaderboard has unique prizes, and if you score enough, you can win prizes from all three leaderboards during the same Coin Chaos event.
See you out there!
