as for not getting back ranks, well a full reset to where we were all before the event started, I'm sure all of us agree would be perfect. Its funny that Mobage didn't even bother to do a backup before making these changes... isn't that IT 101? As dirty as I feel about saying this, backups don't generally work in that way when it comes to application development. You'd be right if it were a fairly static set up (such as a website), but if the changes effect a live system (such as a database), you generally can't undo with a backup because you'd loose any additions to that database. I think Mobage set themselves too tight a deadline and testing suffered. The server changes needed to be in place prior to the updated app appearing on devices. oh. i see. thanks
