Though maybe they do recheck some times. Refunds and free weekends are poison to the algorithm and I think they're trying to adjust it as good as possible. |
As far as I know, refunds and free weekends aren't poison to the algorithm but to the data instead. I believe I've read the issue is with free games getting assigned to the accounts when they go online during the event, but not being unassigned from the account until it's online again. Considering these events occur during weekends when a lot of people are active, the games get assigned to a lot of accounts, but a lot of those people might not log in during the week, leaving the games lingering on their accounts because they don't get updated.
