Hahahaha, pathetic that some have to sell themselves as troopers
Compiling data should be the easy part. Does this mean you're weeding out obvious instances of multiple thrown attacks or other devious strategies, which is taking extra analysis? That would be cool for the people that didn't speak up instantly about it like me even when it worked to my advantage. Integrity in competition is key, even amidst the bugs last week.
Not anything that interesting, no. Basically, the part of our servers where we track the data for leaderboard information (ie wins, losses, etc) and the part of our servers where the store information is utilized (for getting the event rewards, among other things) don't directly talk to each other, and even though we've done the process of exporting data and revising it so that we can hook up the right reward tiers for the right players, an important step (which requires coordination with a party outside our office) has hit a snag, so it's just taking longer to go through the whole process that lets everyone claim their reward tiers in the PVP shop.
Apparently it was further complicated by ensuring people didn't get counted as the tier from the last PVP event we did, too. Something we're going to investigate more thoroughly once rewards are out to ensure we communicate a better timeline for future events (and/or find ways to be able to turn this around quicker).
Thanks for the response, interesting stuff. Yeah I understand having to build out objects/services and such that talk to each other, can be a big pain in the ass if the code base isn't designed around maintainability/enhancement. Sounds like the tasks at my job the last month lol Totally makes sense.
Well, sounds like I'm a liar about being a liar. We just got the data back from our partner and the rewards are scheduled to go live any second now. I guess that means we barely made it for 72 hours after event end?..
If you don't see them in the EDIT: regular Store, force close your app and try again (or if you still don't... wait a minute, then try again).
