Sega apologizes for the recent connection issues experienced by OTP users and will be giving out compensation.
Players with OTP enabled accounts at October 24th (20:00 JST) will receive:
1 Day Premium Set
+100% Tribooster (x3)
Grind Success +100%
Free Salon Pass
Sega plans to announce the release date for these items at a later time. Please check back later for further developments.
Regarding the Storage Changes in January
As was mentioned in the last bullet point in the previous post, the restrictions placed on the storage boxes are intended only for [Extra Storage 1] through [Extra Storage 5].
The [Extra Storage] boxes affected by this limitation can be seen in the highlighted portion of the screenshot linked here.
The majority of players outside of Japan will not be affected by this change even if they are active Premium users. This is because the [Extra Storage] boxes have to be purchased separately in 30/90 day increments.
