Yeah, considering what happened last week plus this issue, I don't think you'll have problems with having your card on your list when the update is ready.
Maybe this kind of bugs will happen again in the future, so maybe it'll be a good idea to take some screenshots when new cards are available before confirmed releases, like today's bug.
Ok now this is interesting. I've read here and there that you should save Pero (ranging 500k up to 1m) for this event, but I wasn't sure exactly why. But what you said makes a lot of sense.
Bad thing I've only managed to gather a little more than 300k so far.
