Mine showed up, I did two reality shows in Calabasas, then I opened my first box and won a halter top, then the event totally disappeared. Strange. I would send a ticket but I just can't right. It's way past my bedtime and I got work tomorrow. I'm kinda mad right now but too exhausted to care.

Hey Koko, any word? I'm at the point where I'm wondering if this is intentional....Only WolfandButler and me?? Weird, I know, but what else is there to think; no one else is saying anything, you know...? Well, Mani, below, did, and Zoe lost hers. This is strange to say the least. Thank you, K, as always.<3

I don't think it's intentional. I have the event in one of my games but not in the other. Both are running on the same version of iOS and played on an iPad.

Hi Holly. The reason I think it's intentional is because it never takes the more than 12 hours(!) it's so far been, to fix a problem like this. Also, I don't have the new Balmain--do you? As you can see below, W&B does.... It's weird, too, because my game updated last night. I don't know what to think at this point; it's out of character for them not to have fixed something like this by now. At any rate, I'm just going ahead and doing my ice club gigs; SCSD; and SCL stuff, plus side gigs when I get to them. Wondering if there's going to be any kind of compensation for this, but doubting it.
EDIT: I still wouldn't put past them randomness in who's getting the event and who's not. It is, or was, apparently in writing somewhere, that they had every intention of doing midweek events in such a manner, "trying out" different ways of presenting throwback events or whatever the heck it said.

1) there is a problem with the platform (ie affects all iOS users, or all android users, etc)
2) the game has been 'flagged' by glu as hacked
It's clearly not #1, which leads me to believe isa is correct about this being intentional. Which is why I AGAIN ask for a Glu staff member to contact me via PM. I am happy to show my receipts and prove to you what a huge fool I am to have spent so much on a game that clearly doesn't value me as a customer.
I'm so upset. They only gave us one throwback box this event and at this point even if they do fix my game I still won't have enough time to reach the final box. So I am deprived of an opportunity others were granted, through no fault of my own.
And still radio silence from Glu....

Will not be getting it I can really use some stars I was hoping to open in those boxes for weekend boxes I am extremely frustrated this wasn't fair at all. I would think I'm a valued or priority customer due to spending money I don't even have on this game.. I wrote glu over 24 hours ago actually 32 plus hours ago and no response I do not understand why only select few do not have it. I am on iOS version 9.1 on an iPhone 6. I really hope for some kind of compensation if I can't get the event... At this point doesn't seem likely.

What we know for sure, is that we don't know anything for sure. But I am very sorry this is happening.

They investigated the situation and it turns out that it's not a glitch.
They designed the system so that players who have a certain percentage of the prize items would not get the event (which would prevent players from working hard for no rewards or lackluster ones).
This design meant that players who had many of the prize items would not see the event at all, and players who got items which put them over the threshold would see that event disappear. Of course, this design is not ideal.
However: "We have already changed the way the event works and will release those changes in the next version."
Remember that Glu is committed to letting us have as many chances to get throwback items in the future, through similar events, and through other means.
"Some players may not have got all they wanted from this event, but we will definitely let them get those same items in the future.'
They are sorry for the confusion and thank you for your patience.

Last time this happened, I was in the 'why didn't I get it' segment, and some of you missed out both times. All I can offer is my sympathy, and hope that the next incarnation of a throwback event works out better for all of us.

Thanks for letting us know, Koko.
I had none of the prize items, and I wanted the hair so badly. I only won 1 or 2 of the items, then the event disappeared.
We're always clamoring for improvements and new features, the Developers wowed us when they rolled out the Krew feature on KKG, and I'm sure they're immersed in bringing KK:H things like that, things we never even imagined. So, they tried something and it had faults. They put it back in the think tank for correction. I think for every aspect that doesn't work, it gives them the info they need to fix, improve, and better the game for all of us.
Those are my honest thoughts about it. And the fact that they recognized it didn't work, and are already making corrections for the next one gives me encouragement that this was a bump in the road, but there's a great big ice cream cone right around the corner.
Again, I'm sorry for those affected, hate to see anyone left out and sad (reminds me of when they picked teams in Gym). On the good side.......the new weekend event starts tomorrow, and I'm always excited when that happens. We'll get the teaser sometime today, and I hope that helps to smooth some of the unhappiness you're feeling right now.

Plus, I feel very confident in saying that players who have more event items than I do got the event while I didn't. So putting aside the fact that the logic behind this decision is discriminatory and unjust, it is obviously flawed in execution. I absolutely do not have "almost all the items". Not even close.
