It's official, New Year sale starts on Dec 30 and it's 30% this year. Gold is worth 200 crystals from 29th. Happy New Year!!

Mind you, there's not a single word about "technical error" or "mistake" in the Russian version of your statement ;) Moreover, they admitted that it was made on purpose but they were forced to cancel it due to outrage of players. My theory is that lot of players are waiting for sale so TO decided to raise prices beforehand in order to cover their "costs". This stinks
