The Facebook group went mad and many people get tracks in a row!
I knew RL had something planned

I got my 4th this morning, after getting 2 parts though...
Maybe we are in for a surprise? I'm not counting on it though.

so pretty much all 3 weeks of waking up at 5am to open present was useless, we got those tracks anyways :P
Senior Member
I understand! And all the gems too.... At least we know we really earned them.Originally Posted by PL-k4kshi Go to original post
As much of a PR nightmare this event must have been (they lost much of my recent good will, at least) It's good it ended with the tracks available. I'll probably run screaming if RL tries another RNG-based event though....
Senior Member
Yeah they must have changed something, after that one I got earlier, my next 2 gifts were tracks, and now I need only 1 more!
Thank you for fixing this issue RL, it is appreciated. I don't even miss the 100+ gems I spent the last two days.

I got 2 tracks in a row today I was more than surprised after soooooo much crap! I was not expecting to get all the tracks after having UPlay issues from the new update.
This update has to be the most crashes/ freezes I have had since the bunker was introduced.
Thanks RL for the tracks though no more waiting up till 2am for last presents of the day

Well done RL, after making us starving for tracks during 3 weeks you throw them all in a row.
I spent ~1700 gems dying for new tracks and POOF here you go 2 in 2 gifts
Worst event ever obviously (random prizes, huge gems stealing)
But i can't be that mad since you gave us the only thing we fought for.
So thanks....maybe

Yes of course they sure did not steal my gems during my sleep.
I was just comparing this event with the older ones, i've never spent that much during an event.
Instead of you i had only ONE track during 2 weeks (knowing some guys had them all) this is why i felt obliged to spend my gems to gets these tracks i was afraid to miss without getting every gifts in the wheel.
I also didn't buy the christmas outfit.

Yeah, 20-20 hindsight makes that decision look good.Originally Posted by ciscodalicious Go to original post
Agreed, but I can understand where he is coming from. I decided early on to use gems to get every possible gift i could, because I had no idea if my randomness was going to give me the tracks. I figured it was better to be safe than sorry.... I didnt want to risk not getting the tracks.
And until today..... It WAS the smart thing to do because I was at 320+ attempts and still missing tracks. If I had gotten the last track, I had reached the point where just playing casual would NOT have given them to me.
Then RL hands the last track to me on a silver platter today. Maybe if the dang event was balanced to begin with, I wouldnt have had to spend half the gems I did! So yeah, i am glad its over but their bug made this way more inconvenient/stressful than it had to be....having the tracks doesnt erase all the bad feelings the event caused. And there is this nagging feeling that RL knew this was going to happen all along and they just let us slave away to boost their money. . . That kind of thinking is what happens when you piss people off. Badly designed event, even if there were some good aspects.

The tracks are important enough to many folks that hints are not enough. Too risky. I remember people saying that they would skip an event and pick up the tracks after..... And then regretting it when the tracks didnt arrive for months. The point being that RL can design balanced events with upfront honest rules that reward you for your effort, and we dont HAVE to try and read between the lines or make judgements off of vague hints.
