I can't see your inventory. What I can see is that some players already have 32 stamps, and nobody has issued that stamp, other than the automatic version. The people who respond to bug reports have the ability to see your inventory, and it is related enough to belong in the same thread (I suspect there is some thing that happened across the board for some stocking or present like #s being wrong or whatever).

Question: What if Saxi deletes our wall posts?
Question 2: How do you determine who is fastest to 35 taking into account things like posting here, on Saxi's wall, etc.?



Now there are 35 stamps??? ;)

Why would you not give credit for games that started in December but end January 1 a stamp when ALL THE PAST monthly challenges have given credit to games that started in the month but ended in the first couple weeks of the next month.Every time this has been the case.Why if you change it not highlight it.Consistency is a big problem with this site.You should give credit for these games.really disappointing.

I think it was clear in the "Notes" in the first post when the games had to be finished by. Maybe not consistent with other events though.

Games must start between CC Time: 2014-12-02 00:00:00 and CC Time: 2015-01-01 00:00:00 to be considered for the Challenge.
Each stamp will only be counted ONCE per player. i.e. you can have 100 stamp01s, but the score for that stamp will still only be 1.
If a team game meets the criteria for any stamp, each member of the winning team will receive that stamp.
Data from all games that have finished by Jan. 1 will be collected on Jan. 1. After that, games will no longer count

so games that finished today should count by this because it says finished by January 1. I won my game for my last stamp this am and was not awarded it. Im feeling pretty cranky about it because it clearly states "Data from all games that have finished by Jan. 1 will be collected on Jan. 1." So stamps should be awarded for games completed today

I interpreted that as games finished by midnight on 31st would count and data would be collected on 1st Jan. But I can see how it could mean games finished by the end of 1st Jan (but then data would be collected on 2nd Jan which is why I thought the former).

The reason is we wanted a nice, clean finish to this event, and to start a new year.
Due to the nature of the event, even if players started in the last week, there is still a chance to complete at least the GA medal. With the normal challenge, if you start in the last week, there is no chance without the overlap.
I have to go to work now, but this will all be sorted by the weekend.

The January challenge is back to the traditional mode.

However you wrote

What you intended may have been something different but what you wrote states very clearly games that have finished by Jan 1 - today is Jan 1.
Intention is great but the words can only be interpreted as they are written eh ;)

I even bought a stamp in the store to make sure Id have 20 and todays game was 20. Id have played speeders all day yesterday to get that alst stamp Id have hurried along turns in games that were close to ending had it been clear that it was the 31 but you clearly said as quoted above Jan 1.

Then why not say that when you introduced this.The scoring for this monthly medal will be different then all the other monthly medals..most people do not have the time to read all the details so we assume unless HIGHLIGHTED otherwise that the scoring will be the same.This is the same reason there are so many dissatisfy with the current update.it really is about time and consistency. I now have so many active games that I don't care about.

Its not even the outstanding games its that you clearly said
"Data from all games that have finished by Jan. 1 will be collected on Jan. 1"
so by this all games that finished by Jan 1 which means on Jan 1 should be counted. If you made a mistake in the way you worded it that should not count against the community. I lost a ton of points and would have played speed games all day on the 31 to get the last stamp. If you are not clear in what you set forth as rules then the benefit of the doubt should not penalized the compeitors

thanks for your attention to this
