I got through to Mastercard and the supervisor I spoke to said they're actually aware of this, they've received multiple calls and it's been escalated to their global HQ and they're awaiting a response. KEEP CALLING!!

We've been discussing a fairly new idea which happens to fit with spooktober so we'll probably take part, game jam marathon it is🤣 I just camp up a very cool idea😎 about the framework design with @norikkka.bsky.social, it's gonna be so fun but also a coding challenge for me as well...🤪
