This race type is voided, and the post has been updated to say so. Sorry about the confusion!

Hey guys! The team is aware that some points have not been awarded for this race and they are looking into it. We're very sorry for the inconvenience!

Please do not delete your characters from this race (if you haven't already).

I received a lot of emails about players not receiving points, and I'll make sure that we fix it up as best as we can. I haven't personally looked into what went wrong yet. If people have deleted their characters, we'll try to recover the information from logs. It's time-consuming but will hopefully be possible. Unfortunately because today is Sunday and tomorrow is an NZ public holiday, the earliest our server guys can investigate is Tuesday NZT. Sorry for the delay!

how many days do we need to wait?

As Chris mentioned, it's currently Sunday in New Zealand, and tomorrow is a public holiday, so the earliest this can be looked into is Tuesday. We apologise for the inconvenience caused by this.

We have repaired the points for boss kills. They should be awarded by now. We will also award another set of random prizes for the people who weren't included in the first set. This part hasn't been awarded yet, but will be today.

It's fine to delete your characters now!

Very sorry about the inconvenience. This mistake was due to a misunderstanding that someone had about how the prize awarding works. They understand now.
