How many tickets have you lost lately??
Since the Puppy update a week ago, I have had the following occur on IOS around 20 times (about 3 times a day); costing me a ticket each time:
- Go into the showdown screen; pick a track to run.
- The "working" icon comes up (bike riding around in a circle)... but almost immediately it stops.
- Screen goes blank, and I am thrown out of the game.
- When I go back in... I've lost my ticket.
Its not just the bunker; I've probably had this occur about 5 times when running slots as well... crashed right out of the game. But there I am not losing tickets for it. 
Its doesnt seem to have anything particular to do with the Puppy itself; I get this whether I am running that mission or not.
Has anyone else been seeing an increase in this kind of behavior? Anyone come up with a way to make it happen less often?

happened to me as well
pretty much once every 2 bunker races, bike in the circle.. black.. game closes.. ticket lost..
finished my opened PVPs and didn't play the bunker since then (also because i was already getting opponnents too strong for me, but also because of this)

It doesn't happen as often to me, thank goodness, but yes it has happened since the update. I wish they wouldn't charge you a ticket until after you've completed the track or exited on your own.

don't have a clue as how to avoid or reduce the occurrences.

It has happened to me also, once in the bunker, and maybe 3 times outside the bunker. One of the times was while i was in a track doing a slot mission, game closed, i restarted and the slot machine had "defaulted" back to previous position. Spun again and got the same mission. Fortunately this hasn´t happened alot , actually i don´t think it´s happened in over a week.

Yep, had the exact same several times now and becoming more frequent. Lost 10+ so far which includes maybe 3/4 golden tickets I think.
I've been unable to run tracks at all in a showdown because of this. Happened 3 times in the space of 3 minutes with Donkey on Nightlife. Couldn't run it and had to rely on the other two tracks. Also had it on Firefly Landing and just experienced it again on Urban Jungle with the Berserker. These are the most recent but is not specific to those tracks, as just had Nightlife come up with the Mantis and could run that fine.
I've also discovered that if i try to run the track from the map normally after restarting, it will also then crash the game. The only way I've found to get it to work again is by loading a ghost from the leaderboard (normal). I'd hoped this would enable me to run the track in the showdown again, but it didn't work... until just now with Urban Jungle, where I was able to run the track and set a time.
IIRC all the crashes have occurred when my opponent has already set a time. The Mantis on Nightlife above was the first run through so I'll see if it works when I run it again later.
It's becoming really annoying! (it doesn't help that i'm producing so many sh*tty runs too, lol!!)
iPhone 5 by the way, latest OS.

Older devices?
I'm going to go out on a limb and say those who are having the crash issue are on iPhone 5s or older.
I've had this happen as well, typically when my opponent has already set a time.
Games are typically optimized for the latest hardware and crash more frequently on older hardware.

Yep. Same thing. Seems to happen more in the bunker for me.
I'd say around 10 times at least. IOS
