GAME BUG: A bug has been found in Jail. Started by: Squishy on Oct 13, '14 22:28

We have found a bug in the jail break code that is giving incorrect XP.  We will be going through the backups and hope to have everything settled up tomorrow. We will give you a notification once past XP is given for those affected by it.  You are safe to jail from this point forward.

Report Post Tip

Do u have an exact method, or will it be an approximation?

Report Post Tip
We only keep the last 6 hours of jail logged in the DB for performance reasons, so tomorrow morning we will be working with the backups to get the exact data for length of the issue, and the replay it, then compare with your existing to see how much you lost out on.

I felt that something was wrong, and that the error may date back even before the 2XP w-e began...

A lot of work to do on a base of more than 1000 players... good luck :p

 I would personaly proceed like that in worst case:
 
(actual jb number - number at last correct backup time) X (something average depending on quantity of jb made during the time) X2

Thanks for letting us know since Jail breaking is very popular

Yes I brought this up in Divine Lunacy and was told that I needed to quit complaining, because I level slow. I knew there was something wrong. It didn't seem to be giving out double exp for the double exp weekend. Thanks for finding the issue and working on correcting it! :)

We need to be patient on this. Imagine the work to check so many players JB activity... I wdn't be surprised that it takes more than a single day...

Report Post Tip

I never said they need to hurry. I said thanks for finding the issue and working on correcting it.

Thanks Seven.

So to be clear you're only giving the experience earned within the last 6 hours of the double Jails? 

Cause if so I still lose out on a lot because I barely did any the last day.. any of the credits I spent or the jails I did was well before the last 6 hour mark. 

Report Post Tip

KingDee they only keep the last 6 hours in the active database.  they will be going through the system backups where they will be able to obtain the data before this time.  then they will need to work it all out player by player

Report Post Tip

Once this is done lets celebrate with another weekend 2X exp :D:D

Report Post Tip

I have done hundreds upon hundreds of jail breaks during the double xp weekend, and I only increased one level on the first day and that's it... I thought it was a bit strange, considering all of the work I had been putting in.

can't wait to see what happens when I get all that XP back.

Report Post Tip

yeah I definitely agree, CrissCross. I spent probably fifteen credits throughout the double exp weekend, and like you I only got one unit in the first 24 hours and then no more units after that.

Report Post Tip

Just like the person above I was told to get over the fact I level too slow. I knew there was something wrong i just thought maybe they had changed the amount of XP given. and as mentioned above i spent a lot of credits. I did it once before jailed all day and gained 3 units in a day this time I only just got one! so I am happy it wasn't just me getting really rubbish at ranking. And I do feel for you guys having to fix this but it is appreciated :)

Report Post Tip

I would like to express my thanks Squishy and the admins for such a quick process back dating the jail XP. I received mine earlier and it was over 1,000 jails. Much appreciated for the time you have taken to do this!

Report Post Tip

I second that! thank you for your hard work it must of been tedious so thank you :)

Tx Squishy :)

Oct 14, 22:05:01 You were given XP for the 3 jail breaks you did since a bug was introduced at Oct 07, '14 15:05. This includes 2x XP for breaks during the event. Thank you for your patience as we figured out this bug.

 

Ya'll just jealous.
