Update #2: Locked out again and logging out and back in not working after another 3 tries. Was mass flipping/juggling 4 cards actively and seemed to be triggering the lock after 40 or so orders, but the first time it let me right back in after logging out. I understand we are combatting bots, but it seems we keep repeating a cycle every week of having the levers too tight, loosening them and then bots just back within 24 hours.

Edited: Logging off and back on worked the third time. Not sure why that one worked. Orders placed for mass flipping Topps Now Jake Rogers. Will update again if more orders go through or if it locks up again.

Getting the same error of “request verification failed, account was not put on a score cooldown” since the update today. Logged out and back in twice but still not working at all. iPhone 12, not on a VPN. Tried both WiFi and 5G, Verizon.

Edited: Started working again after logging out and logging back in twice. Will update if this fixes the next time I’m stuck on the fetching data loop.

App is in a rough spot for me. Will be working just fine, then I will get stuck in the fetching data loop for several hours. Probably has to do with me doing bulk orders when flipping. I don’t know or understand the reCaptcha stuff, but I’m guessing since I mainly use the app for flipping in bulk, each order placed or cancelled adds up fast.

I’m still able to use the game for market orders though, and I’ve got a good stubs bank to work with while this iteration of the app gets fine tuned. My worry is I don’t want to get restricted on the app again like back in April, so just to be on the safe side I guess I should slow down on bulk flipping? Or atleast if I do place bulk orders and get outbid, slowdown on how frequently I change my orders.

Was surprised to not see a few more choice packs sprinkled as hidden rewards. Not complaining though, since the packs from the goals are good. Just seems the last few years they’ve moved towards listing all the good rewards instead of hiding them.

As others have said, lots of packs. I would imagine there will be some of the outdated choice packs, like the launch Legends and WBC choice packs. Might also include some Spotlight Any packs. This is copium, but would love to get a pick any headliners pack. Not that any of the cards are game breaking, but the market has been wild for headliners most of the year.

@Sarge1387_PSN Black Ops emblem creator comes to mind as well. Just wish we could have nice things without degenerates ruining it for everyone.

I would absolutely love to see a feature where you could create your own bats. But then I remember that created uniforms exist and there are too many that should be banned.

This. I’m going to most likely leave the extra packs unopened. Wish there was an exchange for all no sell dupes in the game though. With Team Affinity this year there were lots of the uniform packs that some teams you’d end up with dupes as well.

I only heard of YFK because of the cheater video back in March. All I’ll say is if you were trying to make a point to SDS, you would have continued showcasing cheaters and stayed in that lane. Instead he and his followers played stupid games and won stupid prizes. I do hope SDS continues to target the market bots, stub sellers and cheaters. Those are all areas that need improvement. But trying to pin all the blame on SDS for knowingly breaking ToS is just new levels of copium.

If my kid threw rocks at a neighbor's window and broke them, I am still financially responsible for the consequences. I can't just pass the buck to my child. As a parent, I am 100% responsible to guard over the type of media they consume, and sometimes their actions are a reflection of myself. If true, this is a great teaching moment for all parties.

I absolutely loved seeing this by SDS. I know some of the content creators are trying to say “well innocent people got banned for just using the market to flip/invest.” Well I am a heavy market flipper/investor and back in April before the first legend collection, I did receive a false market restriction/ban. I submitted a ticket, was kind in my responses, and everything was resolved within a week. I know I wasn’t the only one at that time, but just adding my two cents. Hopefully support tickets will get sorted out for those caught in the crossfire, and SDS can continue to ban more people not playing fairly.

@BLAISEBLAISE_PSN If you were doing the program game vs the twins or Phillies, that counts as a moment so no PXP or anything. I thought I had the same issue, so hope this helps.

Same here. App has been working great for placing orders until last night. Hopefully it gets resolved soon, I’m guessing it was an attempt to block bots again.

I think last night the bots came back, but I’ve only been flipping golds the last two days, so can only speak from that perspective. Monday it felt like flipping golds was finally viable for the first time (for me) all year. Then late last night all of a sudden would get undercut by 100+ orders. But even then, these last few days the app has been amazing. Keep pulling the levers as you need to, I can tell there’s a definite improvement for the cards I’ve been flipping.

Edit: Just to clarify, I’m sure much of this was real users seeing the wider margins, so that brought more competition and naturally lowered the profits somewhat. Just the red flag for me is seeing when there’s 100+ sell orders at the same price. I know with silver exchange it’s possible to sit on more than the 20 card limit though. I’ll try and make a better note and screenshot anything I see for the future if that would help, since I can’t remember the exact cards I saw this on last night. But again, improvement all around from what I’ve seen and where I’ve been active on the market.

App has been feeling great for me since last night. Orders being placed as fast as the app allows and no restrictions. Whatever levers you pulled on the backend are perfect. I have not tested enough cards to know if bots are everywhere, just wanted to share my two cents.

Haha I love snarky Manu. While it is unfortunate that we can be restricted after just a few orders, the market feels MUCH better. This morning I went to place orders for the spotlight cards to get that collection done, but after every 3 orders I did have to wait that minute or whatever for the restriction to end. So there are still inconveniences, but definitely the last few weeks are miles ahead of where we were back at launch and April.

Had the same thing happen to me about a month ago, right before a big collection. I was still able to use the marketplace in game during the restriction, but definitely not ideal.

Thankfully I did get a response, but it was probably 4-5 days from when I first submitted the ticket on a Wednesday/Thursday night (I think). Hope you hear back soon, especially with the weekend being over. If I remember it was Tuesday morning I got the response, but hoping yours comes quickly.

Still hit or miss for me. Got disconnected final at bat of an event game and haven’t been able to get back into the game. That’s what I get for procrastinating the 25k PXP mission.

It would be amazing if we had a default setting that just removed logos in online play. Let them keep just the jersey colors but if we turn this setting on it just goes to the default home plate and bats. It’s disgusting that they haven’t fixed this and the same bad actors face no consequences.

@SDS_JoeK_PSN Thank you! I did receive a response for the ticket (from Zoe) but a response here is twice as good. I did respond back on the ticket since I have an idea of what the specific action I did was flagging my account. Not sure if you’re also able to help answer that here, or if it’s best left on the ticket. And I completely understand that legitimate users will get caught as you attack the bots.

Just happy the team’s looking into each of our issues. Thanks and hopefully everyone else in this thread will be getting their ticket responses soon.

@Oliver230230230_PSN Same. Started working just now on the app but no response on ticket. Makes me hesitant to use the app since don’t want to go through this a third time.
