At this point I can’t help but think they are testing to see how many people collect tribute without notifications.

It’s gonna from broken, to undependable. Which may be worse than broken. Most of the time sending an alert represents a false sense of dependability.

Quit “gas lighting” us devs.

Don’t forget that that’s the way it used to work and it was a PITA having to set a reminder or timer for every hour if you wanted to maximise the return ☹

It looks like this bug has caught up with me now.

I’ve missed at least two Tribute notifications, also the last time I played the game I was told that there was a Pet Rescue running and I had 8 minutes left to do it!

(Fortunately it was one I already had, but…)

Seems like Sunday is the offical “no notifications day”. I seem to be not receiveing my tributes alert.

Yeah, it was working fine since Monday, but around reset time today (Sunday) it stopped working.

Edit: A few hours before Monday reset, it started working properly again.

This bug is definitely not resolved. Some days I get notifications, some days I don’t. Using Android phone and tablet.

Another Sunday without notifications. There were a few hours earlier in the week where they were missed but Sundays are the worst. How long is this going to carry on?

@OminousGMan

As far as I know the tribute notifications are contracted out. How is this company getting away with only having their services work part time?  
Or… Have cost cutting measures resulted in only 6 days a week (even that isn’t a 100% reliable anymore) services?

6.3 was the original catalyst of blame. But really I assume it’s the fault of whoever is managing the servers now. They either aren’t aware of this issue or don’t care.

It seems certainly not a priority; even though folks grumble about the notifications being missing _every_ time this happens.

(It’s not just tributes either; pet rescue notifications are useful too, at least for folks that haven’t maxed all the non-faction/non-cosmetic pets, and they’ve been broken for quite a while now in that the notification often has the wrong pet named.)

Back again after a few hours of blackout.

Yep, just got one, although I had collected tribute 10 minutes earlier.
