When the challenges worked, I was doing GAs every day for the bonus malus time.
I think this is how the system was originally designed to balance itself out long ago.
now they're going to ddos twitch :eek:
our friend watnutricious is stuck in the Oblivion, as he cleared the cache of his browser and IG is broken, he can't log until the site is restored
Sorry for making you the messenger, but thanks...I didnt want ivo thinking I was crying in a corner over Metaphor :ROFLMAO:

Supposedly the more times you won in a day, the more chance you had of winning a higher quality game. Although the game is rigged, and some can not be won more than once, even if you remove all malus.

Linking a Steam account and joining their group used to give a permanent -1s malus, but that seems to be broken right now, like so many other things.

Its an old system, like the site...they probably just fear removing it, but its certainly not what it used to be. I've never even used it and I can see that much, they probably just don't care anymore.

I mean the reality is they could add a bunch of what are few dollar games now and eventually end up with rare accidents like Dirt 2 and Clive, but they've let it go for so long the abuse factor is at a maximum so they probably don't see any reason to bother...and again we go back to my earlier statement, the users ruined a good thing by not just enjoying it like it was meant to be and making 55 accounts for key snatching.

Should they filter the abuse and try it again, probably...can they or will they? Probably not, and its not like they are obligated to either in all reality, you won't find that type of thing anywhere else 🤷‍♂️

It is what it is.

for the record Metaphor was the first key to be out of stock in awa vault, so little chance to get it anyway
Oh I was totally expecting it...we both knew it had a less than 99.999999% chance of never gonna happen lol. I'm certainly not blaming ivo or anything lmao.

I don't honestly know if I would have been able to accept the key if by some miracle he did get it, but he likes Atlus games himself...so I figured it couldnt hurt to give him a little extra motivation to try :LOL: regardless who got the key.

I wasn't able to login but I was still watching the lair anyways as a guest and the updates on the vault, until I decided to just pass out instead of fight the login errors...the worst part was wanting to laugh at the shit going on and not be able to react. But I barely ever get kicked even when the site crashes, and it is the internet...whats going on in peoples head a half a globe away is really best guess--I just didn't want them getting the wrong idea all things considered 🤷‍♂️
