    Dude, Im talking about the chance of having X, its not hard to understand but you choose to dont, If anyone has the chance to get 20, and you dont have that chance, you can only get 2, because of a mistake, you are in disadvantage, and thats not debatable, thats just a fact
    You aren't. That's a fact. Remember, the game knows what you want according to the community and it will never give you the good champs.

    Your "logic" is full of assumptions. You assume a huge mass of people got 20 6*s. You are assuming they all pulled every champ they wanted and they are all rank 4 now. You assume they are going straight to Masters in AW and going to the top of the leaderboards in BGs.

    It's all assumptions. It was probably a couple hundred people given that it was only available for a very short time. It's no different than the people spending money to buy all the offers and you not being able to spend a dime.

    It is different since the in this case the game itself does not let you do that, but it let others to do before the removal of that bundle, its not even about what they do with the shards, the fact that they could have the chance to have all dupes and you dont is disadvantage enough dude, dont look for excuses, it is not fair and thats that.

    It was open for 40 minutes, limited to the amount of people who were Thronebreaker, and online at that moment. Not hard to see how it was a small number.
    You have absolutely no idea of how many people potentially fit those criteria because Kabam didn't provide actual numbers. You can assume it was a "small" number based on that and can state for a fact that it was less than if it had been available to all progression levels but that's as far as you can go based on not being provided actual data.

    Small, or whatever wording the actual post used, is a subjective term. Actual numbers are what they are without all the assumptions and guessing currently going on. If they honestly looked at all the data involved to make this determination then they should have had it readily available before making that post and should have been able to provide us with at least some of the relevant numbers.

    "Could have". I'll look for excuses. It's fun poking holes in your flimsy logic.

    It must be fun for you lol, Im pretty calm, you are wrong and you are trying to be right when you are not, in a RNG game its all about assumptions, the chance to get something is difference enough

    I'd like to know where it was implied that their every decision needs to be verified with data on here. Incase you haven't been keeping track, it's their call. History has shown when something was game breaking in cases like these, they've always taken action. You can debate what small means, but it's clear whatever comparison they've made, it was shows as insignificant enough not to take action. Relative to the number of Players who benefitted, the amount they got, and the effect on the game overall would be my guess. Regardless, it isn't a democracy. Even if they said a couple hundred, they've made their decision.

    Its called Ethics and Transparecy
    They were transparent. They discovered an issue, came up with a plan, and when they checked the data they realized it wasn't worth going to that length. They communicated along the way.

    Thats not transparency, thats not ignoring a bug lol

    Transparency would be saying something like "Only X amount of players out of Y were affected so we are not taking any actions"
    No. That's expecting them to be total disclosure just because some people got something that others won't get. When they say a small number that means a small number. We don't have to check their math.

    Total disclosure would be showing how many people got how many amount of shards, what they got, and how benefitable the bug was for them.

    Just showing the numbers is not total disclosure

    Nah. You are wrong. We can both do this little game. I don't even know what your RNG analogy even means. It's like you're just tapping on the first word your phone suggests, either that or you're drunk.

    You aren't owed total disclosure.

    You don't know that?!?!? You just make assumptions...what's considered a "small number" anyway?

    Dude, by your logic, it doesnt matter if Kabam just gives Cav Nexus Crystals to X players just because, because they could get 3* so it is not enough reason to give it equally to everyone.

    The main problem is THE CHANCE to get something, giving THE CHANCE to have something to an AMOUNT OF PLAYERS but NOT TO THE REST its NOT FAIR.

    If the amount of players affected was THAT SMALL, they would BE ABLE to remove the difference between the bugged Bundle and the right one.

    So it means that the amount of players affected was BIG ENOUGH so they are unable to do that.

    No. It means the overall numbers were small enough that it wasn't necessary to create more work to penalize Players for an error. Penalize in a sense that they take it back. What you have is a situation where they actually did people a favor because it was an error on their part. We're not owed something for an issue that didn't even affect us. We can branch out and talk about abstract effects like the pulls they might get, but the amount of people who got more is not significant enough to be a large issue and ipso facto it has nothing to do with us any more than people having more Champs than me. The game doesn't have an even distribution clause.

    Since when getting the same that everybody else is penalize?

    A *small* number but a SIGNIFICANT advantage.
    A small number of people spend more than 100k on the game each year.

    Here's what I want you to do... Tag me in this thread when you lose a BG match or AW match to one or more of these players who are putting you at such a disadvantage since you think it's a big enough issue to cause widespread panic.

    I’d be willing to bet those who have an issue with this, only do so as they did not benefit. They’d be quiet as a mouse if they did. I benefited and as soon as they made a comment, I assumed I’d lose my champs, which I was ok with l, even though it sucked.
  • FlippFlipp Member Posts: 53
    At the end of the day it is what it is. Keep complaining or move on or “boycott” and whatever else you wanna do. Instead of complaining you could just quit posting and quit playing the game if it is that big an issue.

    What would be your solution?
    How should the make it fair for all?

    If anyone would get like 100k 6*shards it would effect more than just rosters. It would effect battlegrounds, alliance wars and many more.

    As it was an error we all can’t blame them for not giving the offer back to everyone. I’m also upset that I wasn’t fast enough. But it is how it is. It would just infect to much and would also make things like completing 8.2 or something else completely irrelevant for a specific time, because all the players would have more champs to rank up and get their rosters on a specific level.

    It would just change the main rosters of all the players (instead of long term paragons).

    Anyhow - the offers the give us these days are pretty damn good and it should help you anyhow!
    You are right but then again paragon had the same offer but with sigstines they would get 500 generic Sig stones with that offer that's a **** ton. And thronebreaker only got 10% t5 CC crystal so thats like 200% t5cc crystal personally the amount of Sig stones out weighs fairness in m regard and the offer should have stayed how it was.

    It for sure wasn't a small number maybe like at least 100k people.

    20 6*s for all TB Players wouldn't be generous. It would be Bedlam.
