I'd like to make my HoS leaderboard scores visible to all on Google Play but I don't want them posted to me Google+ profile. Is that possible? If so how? Alternately, I might make them visible to 'circles' like the one fallen started. Not sure how to do that. I view this as a minor way to support TB games, because a leaderboard with a bunch of scores on it looks more inviting than one with just a few scores. |

tenbsmith - from my simple read on it, the options really are "Public", "My Circles" or "Private". You can go into your app called Play Games and tweak the share settings for any game you've connected. We already have 200+ leaderboard scores recorded. If you aren't interested in sharing, then I wouldn't worry about it. Also, I've chosen "Public" and I tried for a while and simply could not find any evidence of this on my Google+ Profile aside from the fact that I used Google+ Sign In with the Heroes of Steel app (under About). I could only find it if I opened the Leaderboards inside Heroes of Steel and looked at them.

I only have a G+ profile for achievements and leaderboards. I only have one circle and one person in it - My other half. Then we can compare Cut The Rope scores easily.
Social networking is not my bag.
If you set your gaming preferences to public, it doesn't post scores to your profile, like some kind of blog or wall, it simply means that people in public leaderboards will be able to see your submitted score and possibly, depending on what you share, the games you've played.
My profile is public because I have nothing on it!
Just for leaderboards.
The only thing that bugs me MASSIVELY about the ridiculous over complex G+ system is the way you can't stop random people adding you to their circles... You have to go and block them one by one to get rid of the idiots!
The advantage of adding your mobile gaming buddies to your circles is that you can filter the leaderboards to show your circles only, as I do with my partner, so you can see the real competition instead of just randomers! Similar to viewing an Xbox Live leaderboard and hitting the 'show friends only' button.
