The developer of the popular mobile game Monopoly GO, Scopely, has announced a delay in distributing rewards from the recent Share The Love community event. This has led to disappointment and frustration among players eagerly awaiting their prizes.

The Share The Love event ran alongside the Sweet Partners event, part of the concluding Artful Tales album. Players contributed to the community goal by trading stickers with friends in-game and completing a short survey. The rewards, which included Rolls and a Blue Sticker Pack, were tiered based on the total number of trades achieved by the community.  The initial goal of 1.3 million trades for the Blue Sticker Pack was easily surpassed, with over 1.5 million trades completed.

Originally, players were expected to receive their rewards on February 21st, shortly after the conclusion of the Valentine's Day themed Sweet Partners event on February 17th. However, days passed with no sign of the promised rewards.  This lack of communication prompted concern within the Monopoly GO community.

Scopely finally addressed the situation, confirming a technical issue preventing the reward distribution.  A Reddit user, PictureSubject5010, shared Scopely's confirmation of the delay. The company stated they are actively working to resolve the problem and distribute the rewards as soon as possible.  However, as of February 24th, players are still waiting.

The delayed rewards and the initial silence from Scopely have sparked negative reactions from players. Some have expressed skepticism, suggesting a pattern of delays around community event rewards and surveys. Others remain patient, suggesting the rewards be distributed coinciding with the launch of the next album, Movie Night.  

Amid the reward delay discussion, speculation about the timing of the next Golden Blitz event has also emerged. A user's inquiry to Monopoly GO support yielded a generic response, indicating that Scopely's planned "surprises" are still in development, with further details to be announced via official social media channels.
