I had some left over from last year and I didn't see a statement that they were going to remove them at the end of this year's event, so I saved a bunch so I would have some for next year for any new shop items.

Well, the event ended and the event stuff was removed, so I decided to log into the lobby and back into the game to reset my Daily Challenges, etc. and I got a message stating that all of my spooky tokens had been removed from my currency pouch.

Why were they removed this year, but left from last year? Does this mean any saved H'oddments will be removed as well? Why would I spend thousands of spooky tokens on useless stuff in the shop and not save them to be used next year when I will need them again?

This is really annoying. This is not the 1st time they have removed currency, progress, or other stuff from events, TH promotions, etc. without any warning and had no way to get it back the next time they brought it back, which required us to start all over again, which in turn made it really hard or in some cases impossible to complete or to get all rewards.

Why remove them from the currency pouch where they stayed for an entire year before?

I got an ingame message the last couple of days on my first login of the day - could perfectly be it got lost under all the other stuff you may or may not get on your first login. That we've kept our surplus tokens last year was a bug, since it's always the intended behaviour to lose even currency at the end of the event (or shortly afterwards) - unless they explicitely state something else (but I think the only event currencies we've kept so far were stamps and raffle tickets). I mean in here they basically could have left it to us, since we'll get an identical event anyway next year.

Promotional stuff is more likely to be kept though - that's why we still have those artisan patches, despite this kind of promotion wasn't ran for over 3 years now. So your H'oddments are safe, since they said that last year.

I don't blame anyone for missing the announcement. Maybe there could be a popup rather than just a chat message.


There was a popup yesterday, as well as the chat message. No idea if there was on previous days.
