I just realized that yesterday's patch had the potential to influence tournament outcomes.
If you weren't aware of the changes, and you didn't restart the game, but others did, you'll be at a disadvantage. I didn't restart the game until just now, for example.
If possible, stuff like this should be avoided. But I get that you wanted to reduce people's issues with gemstone-related bugs.. Maybe testing helps, in the future.

There were at least a few of us testing the beta for this update, but no one happened to run into the bug. Either because they didn’t prestige, or because they didn’t specifically push while doing so

Thank you for the feedback. We tried to push out the information to players to inform them of the changes, but it is possible that people could have missed this. The goal was to get these fixes out to players to help unstick anyone who was stuck from the gemstone stacking bug as soon as feasible.
We do our best to avoid bugs like this. However, this one eluded both our developers and our beta testers. We will do our best so this sort of bug does not go through in the future, but until we are aware of an issue, it's not possible to fix it.
