Why do footballs (soccer) take away a building license?

I've noticed, after it was also pointed out to me, that footballs take away one of your building licences until you find the football.

What's the point of that??

Or is it yet another "glitch" in this poorly thought out event?

Because they didn't test the final version on the test server.

Thought so. This whole football thing is poorly thought out and full of errors.

Another error is the "door thing". When you are in an adventure, I'm currently playing "Traitors" the arrow that says you've found another door or something like that appears, yet the football doesn't show, just the arrow. Clicking on the arrow opens the door screen and clicking on doors gives the chime sound but nothing happens. From reading in the chat room, there are even more errors.

Really poorly thought out. Well actually, not even thought out it's a disaster.

We are aware of this issue and are working on a fix. Lawndart - finding the soccer ball collectibles on the map will free up a building license, as you noted.

I can't disagree with you, Lawndart.

Does the amount of free licenses affect how many balls can appear?

no, thats randomly generated

This should be fixed with the upcoming maintenance tomorrow: Patch Notes

Thanks for the explanation, I had been wondering why the number of my licenses kept going up and down even though I hadn't built anything lately.

So will we get back the licenses we lost when we can't find the balls in time?
