Re-Reclassification (Troll Reclassification Reversed)

That was a bummer.  I didn't do enough (any?) testing before I did the troll reclassification several weeks ago.  But finally decided I wanted to run a test this past week.  I created a new account and went out and found a few Level 1 monsters so that I progressed to Level 2, which was now the hybrids.  I went to the Level Details page, and there they were...the Trolls.  I had thought for sure that everything related to monster levels was driven from the server, so I thought the reclassification changes I made on the server would be enough.  I forgot that on the Level Details page I had hard-coded the levels for each monster in order to show all the monsters for that level.  I guess I was just trying to avoid making one more server API call.  That's what I get for taking shortcuts.

I thought about posting an announcement to Facebook that the reclassification was being reversed, but I decided just to keep it quiet since most people won't notice.  It appears that there were only two people who were Level 2 and had found reclassified monsters.  I just promoted them and then made the database changes to assign the new levels back to what they used to be.

Latest benchmarks: 892 active accounts, 254 on the Legends board (including my new test account)

  BACK TO LEVEL 2 :-(



BACK TO LEVEL 3 :-(
