      We’ll get some official messaging out tomorrow.

        Team is looking into some people reporting they got this twice. We’ll probably have more info on that tomorrow, when we do the aforementioned official messaging.

          @hsdecktech Is there a possibility that the extra dusts we receive will be removed? Or is it safe to use them?

            @people568 The team is able to send people to negative Gold for various reasons (like refunds). I think they can do the same with Dust if you spend it before they revoke the second grant. We haven’t discussed what’ll happen yet, so this is no comment on what *will* happen, just what *can*

              @hsdecktech @people568 You NEVER should have posted this given how everything turned out. People ended up getting to keep any cards they made w/ the dust they shouldn't have had & people who waited because you were on here warning us got bubkes. You had good intentions but you caused a lot of ill will.

                @virgo_ascending @people568 I was directly asked this question by several people and gave an answer that made it explicitly clear that it was not certain and nothing was decided. For everyone asking for more communication, that felt like the best way to respond.

          Just to put it all on one thread: nothing has been decided yet, but one possible answer to the second grant is that the extra dust will go away (even if you already spent it). I’ll have more tomorrow. https://t.co/926OefeNvR

            @hsdecktech @RidiculousHat I received dust but my golden cards disappeared. Example the Golden Dun Buldar. Cards. We received free golden copies, I dust the regular one and now I don’t own any copies. If my dust disappear I guess the cards will reappear @hsdecktech ?

              @CrochetMezi @hsdecktech @RidiculousHat The cards disappearing is a bug. It should be fixed

                @schleebman @hsdecktech @RidiculousHat Is it true @hsdecktech ?

                  @CrochetMezi @schleebman @RidiculousHat Yes

            Getting a lot of tags asking about missing cards after the Dust grants. Yes, that is a known issue that appears to be related to this. No, it's not intended to set you to 0. The team is looking into it. Nothing else to say on it until the team sorts this all out.

      @hsdecktech Hate to be this guy but it would have been nice to get some sort of messaging before hand. I got so excited about my 7600 dust that I shouted so loud & now my wife & kids are crying, the cats are peeing everywhere and throwing up. This is blizzards fault for being nice

      @hsdecktech @RidiculousHat Cards like Frostwolf Kennels, the Iceblood Tower, are these examples? I have several copies that are disenchantable but only 2 golden ones from the Questline. Trying to figure out which uncraftables I opened extras for

      • hsdecktech
        Posted 4 years, 1 month ago (Source)
        @ElmStreetVictim @RidiculousHat Yes, like those. I believe the collection manager doesn’t actually show the extra copies of uncraftable cards (because you can’t do anything with them), so you just would’ve seen them when you got them.

          @hsdecktech @ElmStreetVictim @RidiculousHat I also didnt get anything obvious like Vaandar etc

            @SpearDave @ElmStreetVictim @RidiculousHat The Vanndar fix was actually already done. I mentioned that earlier before I confirmed this, but was wrong to mention it.

      @hsdecktech Hi there. I got 18000 dust from this refund for some reason, and now all of my non-craftable golden cards from alterac are gone. This intended? https://t.co/PB57CYiabi

      • hsdecktech

        @NerdFight1 This appears to be related to the double-dust grant they’re investigating.

      @hsdecktech Does anyone know if golden Lokohar from the reward track will grant me the dust? considering getting the reward track now. :)

      • hsdecktech
        Posted 4 years, 1 month ago (Source)
        @antivalidis No, the whole point is that it’s not supposed to be craftable (and therefore not disenchantable).

          @hsdecktech Thanks, I ended up buying it just to try. 😊 At least got a legendary and some portraits.

      @hsdecktech All my dust disappeared today.... what happened?

      • hsdecktech
        Posted 4 years, 1 month ago (Source)
        @johntao8 The whole story is explained in the thread/forum posts, but the answer is that most people weren’t actually eligible for any dust from this refund. So after fixing that, some people are at 0.
