Hey there, We're looking into the veteran cape broadcasts that keep firing over and over right now.

why did i get given 209000 oddments when i logged in

We're taking a look at this. Thanks for letting us know.

EDIT: This is not intended - it's been hotfixed now and we're investigating.
Between October 2019 and March 2020, we had a once-only login check to double a player’s oddments related to an oddments store rebalance. This was readded accidentally today as part of ongoing optimisation work, doubling a player’s oddments if they *didn’t* log in during that 6 month period. That’s now been disabled again.

Uhh, after logging in I got a message saying.

60745 oddments have been added to your currency pouch as part of the Oddments rebalance.

Was this intentional? Nothing in the news post and no one in my clan has gotten this either.

Quick hotfix:

Players who claimed their 5 and/or 10 year veteran cape before mid-2014 will no longer receive a broadcast about claiming the cape for the first time when reclaiming it from Hans.

This should hopefully help some of the spam!

Global broadcast for a 5 year cape is a bit much, no?

We've hotfixed something, which should hopefully help.

Can you or someone mention what this rebalance was? I have a ton of oddments now and want to be sure it is okay to use them.

This seems to refer to the oddments rebalance that occured at the beginning of the year. We'll take a look at what causes you to get this message now.

It is perfectly fine to use your oddments

Hotfix:

The 5 and 10 year Veteran capes now trigger a world broadcast instead of a global all-worlds broadcast. This also means that the 5 and 10 year Veteran cape broadcasts can now be toggled off using the “Broadcasts – World” -> “Milestones – Cape” setting.

The 15 year Veteran cape broadcast remains unchanged as a global broadcast.
