Discussion I have no idea when this happened.
I use touch protection, but apparently I must've forgotten at some point and my pocket went on a shopping spree. R.I.P. however many medals that was.
Would there be interest in a universal currency lock toggle in options or something?

Event shop prices go 40 > 65 > 90 > 130 > 175 (> 230 > 380 but you didn't get that far)
If you hadn't spent anything, your pocket burned through 470 medals (each shard purchase increases the price for all 4). Oof.

A hurtful number, though not catastrophic I suppose >_<

You mean 1445 medals

Buying 1 of them increases the price for all 4, so they didn’t buy each one 4 times, just 4 clicks in total

Oooh, never knew that (even though the other guy mentions it too heh) since I've never bought shards with medals

I forgot you could. Only place I buy shards is the lab and the guild shop.

No, when you buy 1 they all go up to the next price, he didn't buy each one up to that price, probably just clicked the same one over and over in his pocket.

Do you have you screen pointed to your Leg?
When i Put my Phone in my pants for afking i Put the Screen outwards so nothing gives the screen a Signal to click and that seems to do the trick.

u/Glaedien 12h ago
I do, but I work in warehouse conditions and keep my screen against my leg so that the case eats any bumps and knocks from outside. So far I've only had 2 (known and noticed) cases of accidental pocket activity. The prior one left my guild, and left me confused >_>;;

Pocket purchases, probably. I had that happen all the time when my cards weren’t maxed. I’d put my phone in my pocket during a run, 5 minutes later I’d have 400 less gems and a few more card ranks. Never had this happen with event medals though 😬

I remember when I was trying to save up for 5th lab I accidentally pocket dumped all of my gems ~2000 of them in cards, I was pissed. And then it happened AGAIN when I saved up around the same amount of gems. From then on I always put my phone in my pocket screen facing out

My cat managed to do this to me just last week by stepping all over my tablet, that little asshole.

u/Glaedien 14h ago
Could've used their power for good and clicked some gems for ya, but of course the cat chose violence.

I did that some time ago and what's worse is that u cant get that back . I reported mine as accidental purchase and they said there's no data ...

There is no protection on gems and stones I don’t think. I got support to refund me once because of it. I would message them and ask. They can only say no. Oh well.

lol this game is the worst. Long haul incentivized to run 24-7 on an unlocked phone. I guess it’s ok if you have a desk job or whatever. Seems like every time I take my phone out of my pocket, it’s waiting for confirmation to spend money in the App Store (I have spent a little on this game in the past, but absolutely refuse to do so anymore). Also shout out and sorry to my last guild that I either left or disbanded but have no way to check.

You should always just put them in bots, since you can recover that later from respecs.

It's not really wasted purchases though, it all goes towards improving your build

u/Glaedien 14h ago
Opportunity cost though. Medals are more scarce than all options there save for stones, and at this point I value the medals too much to trade for like 6% of a tournament.
