I appreciate your trying to help, but your suggestion was tried and failed in the first hour I was locked out. Along with the "shut down and restart your device" and "uninstall and reinstall the game". This turned out to be a major bug that affected me and several other players and ultimately required dev intervention and a patch to be pushed out to us. See this thread for details.

Just to follow up - There's the good, the bad, and the ugly news.

Good: EA did send compensation to me and the few others affected, for the 7 days we were locked out of the game bc of the web store bug - which caused us to miss the entire first week of Conquest, the end of TB, and one TW.

Bad: drumroll. We got 2000 crystals.

Ugly: And... 3 CWC shards.

Sorry, that was pretty bad.. It's less than $2 USD/day and doesn't really address what we missed out on. And if they were trying to be funny, those 3 CWC shards came across more as a mean-spirited cheap shot. Taron Malicos shards would've been far more appropriate, and I missed out on a lot I wasn't willing to spend every waking moment and tons of crystals/cash to try and get in 6 playable days of Conquest.

I think they took the right step and I do applaud them for that. But the compensation... ugh. (And I'm sure EA will take it as another sign that players are rude, greedy, unrealistic, and ungrateful for what EA does for us, lol)

It definitely reminds me of one of my favorite moments from the Simpsons: https://youtu.be/eSpwWvqqKpw

i believe disconnecting from EA Connect will fix it easyly

Nope. It does not. I can’t attach the screenshot but EA Support stated today “No update on this blocker. Studio is working on a few possible solutions, but they failed or caused new issues.”

Tomorrow will be a full week since I was able to play SWGOH. :(
