19 Retrieval Gifts - any reason to NOT claim them all at once?

Zork

Shocking behaviour of TP aside...

We have about 16 days to claim the 19 Retrieval Gifts.
Is there any reason to NOT claim them all at once?
I'm worried I might have missed a reason.

Many thanks

You never know if claiming them at once is seen as an exploit.

They haven't answered me yet either

As buggy as the game is I should have waited...

I claimed them all at once, there isn’t much else that could top the response from the last one. I didn’t log in to see the prior problem but I must chuckle at what came out of the frantic calls and meetings, stop them from spending for three days in a game solely dependent on people spending a lot, there that will show them. The arrogance is astounding it’s almost like Radoff never left and cashed out. This is why it’s important to hire people with actual customer service experience and not those either fresh out of puberty or so brainwashed to believe virtual stuff is actually worth anything that company errors are blamed on the customer using the product.

They might ban you, because they can

I did my 20 Chronitons thing in the Daily Missions earlier. When the "Get More-Watch Video" Button popped up, I literally hesitated to click it. They literally made me unsure of trusting clicking a button that has been ingame forever.....

i think i did 2-3. i realized it was a glitch because the counter wasn't going down. so i stopped.
waiting to see if it is changed or locked. its not that big of deal to me.

There is no visible counter on the packs. You can only count with your fingers how many you already retrieved. The 19 stays the same until the end.

Still, I only got 17 or 18 overall (I had a discrepancy between constellations and ISM) including the two prior to the fix. My fingers failed me while counting down.

Shan has said the counter doesn't count in the link I posted.

Only the orange dots with numbers can count and they didn't use it for this for some reason.

Wait one moment.

Am I reading this correctly? They are continuing to punish unbanned players who overclaim from their bugged pack?

Is this Star Trek:sadomasochisism now?

Almost the same here, as I will only claim it once per day at Dabo reset until Tuesday, just to be safe.

I did them all at once a day ago and I'm still here to tell the tale. As it happens, I had 18 pulls to clear out the offer (19 is max but it appears to take into account any prior free-daily-pack pulls in that max total).

This is your legacy, TP. We can't trust labels and we can't trust buttons.

I did them all on Sunday, @Zombie Squirrel (event was TaO for me). After the last pull, the retrieval gift pack disappeared from the portal.

I claimed them all at once....but I did not get all 19. They apparently included the small number of "freebies" I had claimed during the big glitch. So, for the legitimate ones I just received the difference. In the end I still got 19.

I decided to claim them all at once a day ago. I've not been banned! As peregrine said: after the last pull, the retrieval gift pack disappeared from the portal.
