Weirdness on Fabday, around (gametime) 5PM, 5th of Candy (stuck buff, and firefly trouble)

I ran into several weirdnesses all at about the same time, right as I got my "Pretty Fly Flycatcher" badge:

1. I opened a firefly jar, and it didn't display properly after filling (after the badge screen went away). First it showed as a tiny jar with no cork, and stayed that way even when I moved it around from slot to slot in my inventory. I filled another jar a moment or two later, and it worked normally.

Reloading did not clear up the problem: after the reload it was the right size and had a cork, but was dropped down halfway out of its slot, Significantly out of line with my other inventory objects.

2. I had a "Sky Cruisin'" buff going just before I got the badge, and it didn't go away for several minutes (I gather, from what I saw in Live Help, that several people were experiencing "stuck buffs" all at the same time). I did a meditate BEFORE I reloaded, and that was when the Sky 'Cruisin' buff cleared.

3. I had a "Silverytongued Charmer" buff when I opened the firefly jar that triggered the badge, and that didn't clear when the badge screen went away. It didn't clear when I did the "meditate." The Charmer buff didn't go away until I reloaded.

I hope that's clear enough. It was a lot of oddness all in one place. I still have the dropped down firefly jar. I'll try to notice when it goes back to normal, and add another report.

  • Ok, I just moved the dropped-down jar to another slot, and it displayed in the new slot in its normal position. Moving it back to the original slot also now has it displayed normally. The gremlins seem to have gotten bored with me, and moved on...
