To contradict the title of this post, it’s not busted. It’s working as it’s intended to work. You simply didn’t understand the exact ins and outs of what buying a token entitled you to - which is okay. It doesn’t solve your issue, but you know now for future endeavors.
Also, for you and anyone else who trips over this thread? One of our regulars was kind enough to do up this handy dandy chart of what forms of payment/game time are all available and all of that. I would suggest clicking the link directly as Mirasol’s work isn’t given an accurate depiction by the preview that shows up.
I’m sorry for your confusion and wish you well in the future.
