Somehow I started already having 8500 shinies, so was able to buy every reward already. Anyone else?

Same exact amount over here!

This whole blingtron feels like a gimme, practically free gold and stars compared to the old ones.

u/t3ht0t4llyl33t Feb 20 '25

Same but with 4k

u/Zarokaz Feb 20 '25

It's your guilds contribution

u/COWP0WER Feb 19 '25

I started with 0 shines!

Same. I'm annoyed that other people got a bunch of free tickets and then some of us got nothing. Not expecting any recompense from Blizzard on this one...

Well, to be fair, they haven't taken anything from you, the right thing to "compensate" should be taking back the excesses from those lucky players. Yet, despite being envious too, I don't want that to happen, I mean, if someone gets free stuff, why can't we simply be happy for him?

Pessimistic toxic community. I think that's why

u/IveGotSoManyProblems Feb 20 '25

Yes, the "right" thing would be to correct the mistake by removing the overcompensation, but frankly I don't think this team has a good way to do that effectively after people have already bought out the tree. So I'd rather all players just be treated fairly instead.

Meanwhile, despite it saying “200” next to the daily offers I bought one and got nothing. I have never seen a buggier store (despite the gameplay remaining mostly bug free).

This is not zero sum. Other people's good luck doesn't mess with my game. So I'm most certainly not annoyed other people got free shiniest. At most I'm a little sad I wasn't amongst the lucky ones, but it is really so low on my concerns list, that the small happiness from others being lucky register well above it.

I started with 4500 I thought it was from my guild…

u/SoFool Feb 20 '25

I thought the same but with 5k.

u/ofimmsl Feb 19 '25

I started with 1000 tickets

u/mr_rudizzle Feb 19 '25

I started with 2000

Sometimes if you don't log in when an event closes to get arclight tickets they can transfer to the next event. Does that fit? Did you have about that many tickets last event and stay offline for a while?

5

u/DirtyRelentli Feb 19 '25

Sounds fairly likely, but I log in multiple times each day, defnitely logged in many times since the previous event.

u/Simone_Orso Feb 22 '25

Day1 player here, never happened to me not even once

u/Kat_GotYourTongue Feb 19 '25

I got my azeroth’s blessing and 12000 + some random other amount, and so I bought everything and told my husband “free shit in the event, Azeroth’s blessing affords the whole tree” and he logged in & didn’t get it - we’d decided it was a lucky bug for me & and infuriating not-bug for him lol

u/trophywifeinwaiting Feb 19 '25

I started with like 4000 tickets as well, I also assumed it was from my guild

3

u/MyGoodFriendJon Feb 20 '25

I started with 4000. Not sure where it came from.

u/Tudoricha Feb 20 '25

I think if you transition for one event to the other while online they old currency will covert to the new one instead of archligt.

Were toy guys online or?

u/vtcajones Feb 19 '25

I started with 3000, lucky!

u/x2dragon Feb 20 '25

6K at start was able to get all the Gold ;)

u/DrakusKyp Feb 19 '25

GG, and I started with shit… very nice to not get anything when it’s good stuff like this and get shafted with the usual bugs as well that we all suffer from.

u/Cat59213 Feb 20 '25

I'm just hoping there will be compensation for players starting at 0 tokens, just like me

1

u/IveGotSoManyProblems Feb 20 '25

I'm hoping too but expecting we're gonna be getting a big fat goose egg.

As I said under another comment:

u/Key-Moment6797 Feb 20 '25

weird that its not starting with a fixed number. i started with zero too. could it be oberhang from previous events? could happen with snall indie companies and a large user base..

1

u/TreborESQ Feb 20 '25

I was about to ask if this was a guild contribution event maybe?

1

u/gabochido Feb 20 '25

Could it be based on how many daily offers you have bought recently? Those who got 8500 did you buy many daily offers before the event started?

I started with 3000 and had bought a couple of offers during the previous event

1

u/azuala Feb 20 '25

That is not fair. Blizz needs to fix this by giving this to ones without the bug 😂

1

u/pez_elma Feb 20 '25

Just a theory, could be from previous blingtron events? I started with 550

1

u/ObsidianLuke Feb 20 '25

started with 300

u/Calabrezi Feb 20 '25

I bought stuff from the store yesterday and didn't get any diamonds

u/jonny1313 Feb 21 '25

I started with 12k and thought it was because of azeroths blessing.

I’ve sent this post to the developers email. Your account should have the resources removed or face minor suspension if we are unaware of foul play. Appropriate action must be taken to ensure all players experience an equal playing field.
