Not that I'm too terribly concerned about it, but this number is not gonna be hit.

 

I'm not sure how you guys came up with this number, or if there is a mathematical error in the program being used to count the gold or what, but this number is just not gonna happen under the current circumstances.

 

Perhaps, the system was meant to count each individual person's gold acquired and it's only counting the group as a whole, but as of right now, that seems to be the only logical explanation.

 

If you were to multiply our current number x4 ((about 15,000,000) x 4 would put us a little over the first star) , we might be on path to hit 240,000,000. But right now, there is no way it's happening, the way the system is currently counting.

Yup, we're aware of the math issue and the PC sudden completion. And yes, to answer the math question "How did this happen?", it was an order of operations error in the math where a multiplier of 4 was applied. It checked out in several pre-launch checks, but ultimately we found the error.  I'll jump on this grenade.  It was my bad.  We'll make sure it's brought up in the stream on Tuesday.  We'll update on Monday once we're in the studio and have had some coffee.  While the challenge hasn't been completed, there is a positive side effect.  You now should have a bunch of gold, or items that can be salvaged from chests you've already bought, that can be put towards the new content on Tuesday.
