wait you did either weekly quest this week already right? sorry if you already said so
Yeah no the wording is a bit confusing, but I did both the epic bg quest and the rated bg quests and got 1 splinter.
So what Iāve got is a spark I made boots with, 1 splinter, and nada since. I am pretty sure I should be eligible for a catchup splinter if Iām not wrong but maybe Iām more fried than I thought, I have played a lot of fury latelyā¦
you should be yea this week you should have 2 full sparks (4 splinters)
you opened the little box it comes in? itās called malvias something or something
looks like an honor box
Yeah no dice - boxes are all popped and all that. Iāll see if plowing through this rep does the trick, since I know that box is also a source for a weekly splinter as well, but based on catch up wording I was assuming you get 1 from a box per week and the rest are RNGād. I am just not catching good RNG haha
Follow up: Finished the rep, still 1 splinter. Wish me luck, eyeballing M+ next

Iām having the same issue
It took me hours of doing epic BGs the other night (mostly cause a lot of them were losses) for me to get my catch up splinters on a couple if my alts. I have faith it will happen soon 
I feel so seen. This is the post I came looking for. Iām in the same boat, one full Spark, only one fragment cause I missed week 1 entirely due to vacation. Iāve also done all the quests, etc. Did a full raid last night - no fragment for catch up. I guess Iāll try M+ today and see how I fare there. 
Update? Iām starting to think that it may be bugged, I got a few other buddies saying they havenāt gotten theirs yet. I canāt put forth anything personally to that effect yet, as Iāve been going hard into Tears of the Kingdom and havenāt logged in since Tuesday to get some neat tier from my vault on my paladin.
There was this note in the hotfix post on GD:
Guessing it was bugged and taking more spark halves than it was supposed to, which led to people being behind with the game still thinking they werenāt behind, so no catchup drops.
e: Apparently that is what was happening:

No resolution from them though, kinda sucks.

Unintentional benefit for me, I guess, since Iām playing less atm.
Sucks for people who basically got robbed, hopefully theyāll hotfix it again to reward people who lost an extra splinter.
I felt like I was going insane. Probably is whatās going on with me so now Iām just permanently behind.
Well done, blizzard.

Yeah, I saw that and thought of this thread. 
Some people are just randomly a splinter behind now for no reason.
if you get 1 full spark per 2 weeksā¦is there any reason to do the quest more than half the time? why not just do the quest on the weeks you actually get a spark, collect the catchup then, and then take the next week off?
i hate epic bgs
UPDATE: I put in a ticket about this and my nice GM awarded me my missing fragment this morning.

you can get splintered fragments from pretty much everything. the catchup is super forgiving so donāt feel stressed if youāre behind because you really arenāt.
