Re: Nothing New/Exclusive from Rux?

I was disappointed; despite the recent community vote for the Dark Bean Bomb or Bling Maiden to appear in Rux's shop for this visit neither item was there this morning and most of the people I connect with on the game were reporting the same. 

Because the date was promised I'm thinking there was a technical glitch involved- I'm hoping that they move it to the next Rux visit because a lot of players will have already checked Rux's inventory and that inventory usually doesn't change after you check it the first time so if that isn't overridden those of us who looked already might miss our chance to buy it.

    The vote for the Dark Bean Bomb was slated for the 23rd of March so it will be there then.

    You choose the Dark Bean Bomb. It will be in Rux's Bazaar on the 23rd of March. Valenbrainz RuxVote taken from twitter.

    Guys - Popcap said the ability would come out at the end of March.  It even said so in writing on the twitter poll.

    Nonetheless, I'm changing his name to Rux the Heartbreaker.  I was sure this visit, because it was not going to have an ability, would offer one of two character stickers since he hasn't done so for about three visits.  I was offered a legendary hat for imp (owned) and otherwise not even a classic gesture.  I guess I'll go spend the rest of the million I'd saved for Rux on ZZ packs, so I can have sunk another million into them without getting any legendary stickers.

    What a letdown!  If I used emojis, I'd put a few right here.

    I believe we will get the dark bean bomb when the community achieves the final goal of the community challenge.

    30 million vanquished with the bean or the rocket.

    I take back what I said.  First, I do love the discobot hat for imp.  But even better, as I started spending all the coins I'd saved on ZZ packs, I got the second pieces for both Toxic Brainz and Iron Citron!  I've still got a few hundred thousand, maybe my luck will hold and I'll finish Computer Scientist.

    Popcap told us explicitly when the dark bean is coming.  On March 23, via Rux.

    My mistake on the date then- I remembered the "23rd" part but not the correct month.

    @pandareno1999 Looks like the pvz gods handed you lemons and you made lemonade. Congrats! Enjoy the dark side of Toxic Brainz.

    I really had no business complaining anyway.  But I felt so sure he was going to offer a character piece this time around.  I'm much happier to have spent 700K on packs and gotten two stickers than to have bought one sticker for a million.  I suspect my odds have gotten better due to having most of the regular TIZ stickers by this point.

    No dice with comp scientist, maybe next million?  I can't wait to be done grinding for legendaries, he's the last one.
