On Boss Level, Filled Destructoneter, Got No Card!

[AngryBroaf]

@bankker et al.
I’ve been working on boss level 520 and after I filled the destructometer, no new card was issued. I had seven cards and should have gotten an eighth. Why this glitch? Was no card issued because it would have resulted in a duplicate bird and boss levels do not allow spell cards? Took a screenshot immediately after it happened, but fat lot of good that does now.

Thoughts?

Thank you.

It just happened another two times! Filled the meter, didn’t get a pig. The first time the meter was filled by the destruction of a golden pig, the next time just by demolishing structures. In neither case was a new card issued. Luckily, I won the level anyway. What gives?

@shoemacher you didn’t get an 8th card because Spells are not allowed to be brought or received via the Destruct-o-Meter, so you can only do the level with the 7 birds- to test your skills!
(Rovio probably thought that people would bring Mighty Eagle into the level and use him on the boss pig and easily beat the level)

@rowdypup Thanks for the explanation. I suppose they could just issue a duplicate bird and keep spells out of it, since one clearly needs extra birds against the bosses themselves. But I guess that would require that an exception be written into the code for boss levels and after the last debacle, it’s best to leave well enough alone.

@shoemacher about the duplicate Bird: https://scontent-lga3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-xpa1/v/t1.0-9/10436223_1688800488055398_6497292176136831178_n.jpg?oh=bc191d454a3dc411016b7240544c9af7&oe=577C985C

-this is why you only get 7 maximum Bird cards on Boss Levels, to prevent who-knows-what
