Like this is legit infuriating, I’m all for freebies but only if the system is fair.

No argument there; I'm very curious as to the metric used for this. It could be that the medals are being given out in waves based on some criteria such as time played. I have no idea, but I would like to know and if it is some arbitrary thing where those who didn't get the medals aren't going to get them I'm going to be upset as well (even though I did get them).

Something time-based where everyone will eventually get it: no problem.

Something only given out to certain accounts and everyone else is SOL: big problem.

It's also entirely possible that the medals shouldn't have been given out at all; if that's the case I wouldn't be outraged if the girl I got was removed so long as I get back the resources I already dumped into her. If it was a bug, then I hope the devs employ a unilateral fix: give the medals to everyone else or remove the medals/girls from those who got them (and return invested resources!)

I might be wrong here my friend but IRC, in DMM when the Rainbow Coins were introduced, there was a "roll back" / "back track" or how to call it.
Pretty much they added several months backwards to the day the mechanic was introduced and every single pull that yielded a dupe - thus giving you RC (rainbow coin), was refunded to you so to speak.

They did something similar with Nation battles just this last month. They reworked them completely, and you received all the flower gems from those stages even if you didnt complete them (those who did didnt get them again though).

While it is and argument to raise that "not everyone could do same amounto of pulls thus everone got the same equall number of RC", maybe, just maybe this is some promo/apoloRCoins to get it more flowing. Or maybe they were just lazy calculating the exact numbers for every player like they did in DMM and just tossed all of us a nice hefty sum of 500, giving us one and 1/3 of a rainbow

So yeah I might be wrong in my theory crafting here, but it certainly does seem to be something of that sort to me, especially knowing how these things usual work on DMM.

Alternatively - it might be some promo like what they did with the FB FKG collab, where we got that one free 6* of our choice.

In a gentleman mofu voice :3

~ On a side note - you guys being gentlemen of refined taste and appreciation for quality waifu time... please lay your eyes upon these few gems I have brought to you, for your amusement, from the far away lands of FB FKG group ~

I could see that...except the amount consistently handed out was 500; I know I certainly haven't pulled -that- many dupes.

I even briefly braved the discord server earlier, but no one there seemed to know why either. I suspect it was a bug, and as bugs though, this was a big one.

If I were the devs, I would just shrug this off and give everyone else 500 medals that didn't already get them. I know I've said I wouldn't mind so much if they removed them, but I'm going to guess that wouldn't go over so well with others, and is more work to do (since they'd have to remove purchased girls as well).

I only remember having two rainbow dupes (Cherry and Sakura) both of which I got from the same 50 gem pull months after I bought them with Nutaku gold. I'm hesitant to spend these rainbow coins ATM, even if Ghost Weed (or Saffron or Licorice or...) would be a nice addition to my forces.

So the good news is that I did receive 500 rainbow medals some time in the past few hours. So, either me complaining here on the forum about getting nothing this morning paid off, or the powers that be may be rectifying their mistake by giving out medals to everyone who did not receive the first batch.

So now I’ll have to decide who joins the squad...maybe Victoria to complement my Victoria Bride, maybe Hollyhock, maybe Loquat or Dusty. Or maybe I just get a dupe of one of the 6*s I already own.

It’s sad that all the characters I really want are 5*s right now. Someday, Tiger Lily...someday.

Lycoris miko for me. It was either this or Snowdrop.
And considering Wutan told me Lycoris miko has an amazing H scene, and with the chance of them taking away these girls I decided to gamble a bit and go with her instead of Snowdrop.
Now if they let us keep em ? Sure she will be still usefull, if not ? Well nothing lost :P

I can confirm what you’ve heard about Lycoris Miko, but Snowdrop is great too. They’re both on the same fourth team on my main squad and they wreak havoc together.

I also got the 500 rainbow medals, no idea what the reason is though

depending on weekend daily deals, I will probably get Helenium (Easter) from the exchange
