Bug Fixes

  • Fixed an issue where very old players could have their daycare slots become stuck
  • Fixed an issue where name fields for nicknames and team names would not accept the correct characters
  • Fixed an issue where Me First, when cast against a target with Me First, would lead to an infinite loop in battle

 

Notes

  • Previously, this event was scheduled to end on January 3rd. Due to gameplay / difficulty balancing issues, we have extended the event by 3 days. It will now end on January 6th 00:00 UTC.
