I was in SSCI Dragonball Z earlier today, and basically, me and 2 other people won the jackpot (around 100 million points) and wish.
Now, I noticed the points were not added to any of our usernames. I can assure you we were not in safe or near a safe in fact.
However, we did receive the wish though.

I went away from the computer for a break for about an hour or so, and the points still haven't been added.
Is this a problem with most zones or just this one, and how long will it take for the points to be added to our usernames?

I don't suppose you thought about asking them? Because this is seriously the wrong forum for dbz help.

I was also wondering if this happens to any other zones?
Also, the website has been down for a long time and the forums, so what's wrong with asking here?

This never happens in other zones. Points are added instantly to your username when you win a jackpot. Sometimes tho, but veryyyy rarely, they wont add on until you re-enter the zone. Which is mainly due to lag. (I think) You should ask big directly.

If the jackpot was meant to be awarded by a bot using *points then it might not have enough powers.

Was the amount won different from ?jackpot (taking into account the formula may increase the jp depending on the player count). Another way of checking if the bot is meant to use *points is your rating and average kill stats get reset to 0. (Although that won't happen this time since you never got the *points).

So wait... the bot might use the *points command?
If the jackpot was too big, the bot wouldnt give the points out?

The amount won was exactly the same as the ?jackpot.
