Dear Warped Community,

We, the Warped Games team, want to express our sincere gratitude for your unbelievable support during our sale. With all six phases combined, the sale of WARPED tokens was completed in under two hours, and some phases sold out in mere minutes. This incredible support has been a moving moment for us. We are excited to launch and start building the Warped Universe for you.

An Overview of the WARPED sale

Phase 1 and 2 of the sale, reserved for STARL token and NFT holders, launched on presale.warped.games Nov 20, 2023 at 3PM UTC and Phase 3–6 were held on Nov 22, 2023 at 3PM UTC.

While the sale was an absolute success on its own and has allowed the team to move forward and launch according to plan, there were some bumps in the road. Warped Games’ recent partner and presale site developer, Cleevio, covered some of these bumps in a tweet after Phase 1 and 2 here.

Post-launch analysis showed some standout issues. While the Warped Games team did not develop the site, we did report these issues to Cleevio’s side, and these are the main stand-out issues we received:

1. At the start of Phase 1, the buy button had issues with ETH/USDT/USDC. Analysis showed this was due to last-minute adjustments made when setting up newly required parameters for the credit card option provided by wert.io. Once that was discovered, Cleevio pushed an update, and the users could buy. Then the sale truly started.
2. USDT option had issues. A call was made to turn it off for Phase 3 onwards.
3. The Max-Buy button was having issues. A call was made to turn it off for Phase 3 onwards.
4. Some reported issues with the Terms & Conditions during whitelist phases; however, these were not replicable in a test environment and did not occur during phases 3–6.
5. The sale queue system had a lag between phases in the UI. While each phase had ended, buyers continued to purchase after the phase had ended but did not get tokens allocated to their purchases until the next phase switched over. Currently, this is being addressed by a refund for those buyers. More on that below.
6. The Presale queue system had an issue with a few buys not getting confirmed in the DB. This has been rectified, and those buyers were refunded.
7. Some buyers sent directly to the multisig instead of buying through the presale. These buyers have been refunded.

Because there were some technical issues in the presale, buyers who experienced or were affected by them will be getting refunds or have already received them. While we would love to let everyone who bought receive an allocation, and we have no direct control over the development of the site and issues involved, we do have to adhere to our legally binding Terms & Conditions and agreements signed by our legal team. This means we cannot in any way deviate from our sale plan, phase allocation, and price structure.

Buyers being refunded for these categories:

1. Those who sent direct to our multisig wallet.
2. Those who bought but didn’t get confirmed in the database have no true logged allocation, and it cannot be given since the sale has already maxed out.
3. Those who bought and were confirmed in the database but exceeded token allocation for that phase. These buyers were at the end of each phase and still purchasing while the phase had ended.

What amounts and who we have refunded:

1. $48,000 in Phases 1 & 2 were refunded to buyers who bought past the Phase structures or sent directly to the multisig.
2. $27,000 was refunded to those who had not been logged on Cleevio’s database.
3. $220,000 was refunded to people who bought past the phase structures between Phases 3 and 6. By far, the biggest amount of refunding is going to those who bought at the end of Phase 3, which sold out in less than 2 minutes due to incredible demand.

Thank You

Again, we’d like to thank everyone involved in the sale. While we consider it an all-out success and the pace of the sale blew past anyone’s expectations, we also want to thank those who supported yet need to receive refunds. While it may be disappointing not to get an allocation, we want to make sure everyone affected gets their funds back in a short amount of time.

Compensation for no sale allocation:

As a token of appreciation to those who bought and must receive refunds, we will send a STARL PAL NFT. While these NFTs no longer have utility in the Starl Metaverse, they will give tax discounts on trading WARPED and receive a percentage of allocation from our NFT Claims in the Warped Treasury, a feature we have yet to announce officially.

WARPED Launch:

Our full token launch will happen in the coming days, so keep an eye on our social media, Discord, or Telegram for announcements about when and how to get WARPED. We are very excited to start this journey with everyone.
