A previous event set of mail rewards were re-distributed continuously to people's in game mailboxes as a result of some bug. If you ranked high enough in that event, those rewards included tablets and a various number of gems.
So those who got the gem mails were able to pull infinitely on the current sugofest because the mails would continuously refresh.
After an hour or so, the game went into emergency maintenance. Message was then sent telling everyone not to use the units pulled with the bugged mail gems or there may be consequences and a decision will be made shortly on how they'll deal with the situation.
Those who had units pulled with the bugged gems had them removed from their box and their gem count dropped to either back to what they previously had (providing they didn't pull past their actual gem count before the mails were sent out) or if they over-pulled, reduced to 0 gems. Tablets and other items were also removed if they were in the user's bugged mails and opened past their previous held amount.
It was fun while it lasted.
People were able to keep box expansions, and any lb potential abilities expanded or maxed thanks to dupes or tablets - providing it was done on a previously earned legend/unit that you had before “Gem Valley”.
But yeah, definitely a lot crazier than 7/11.

A bugged mail gave out gems you could recollect every time you refreshed your mail, resulting in players Bein gable to do 100s of multis for free
