Tremayne said: @Gunmix25 - of course (AFAIK) anything else would be unfair, wouldn’t it?I guess it all stems from the inability to track changes in the database, so that roll backs are impossible to perform. Somehow, the database is designed so it can only move forward, but I guess MTGPQ do not use a relational database to keep track of collection and currency.
Tremayne said: However it is odd that D3/Oktagon does not offer compensation when they mess up like this, like a non-dupe M20 card in a time-restricted inbox message. This is something I regularly experiences in other apps.I experience this kind of compensation too for something like this in other apps.Regarding the database design, I’m was not advocating that a roll back should been performed for everyone. It was just an observation that it seems it is impossible for them to do simple database maintenance on individual player basis or specific errors.A rollback would only be valid within a 12 to 24 hour period ... after that, it would be better to bite the bullet and let it ride and clamp down the issue despite that it could irritate players whom did not get a chance to take advantage of the error. A roll back after 24 hours would create a much greater problem and larger pool of mad players. i think they were right to do so on all counts. I didn't even know of this error until well after they shut it down.
