It appears that the developers of the game did test the features before the announcement, but unfortunately, an unexpected error occurred when @anarcode tried to claim the gift after the spin. @Crypt0nio then asked what the user was trying to do, and the error indicated that the user had already done it. This shows that the developers were responsive to the issue and were able to quickly identify the cause of the problem. Even though the issue occurred after the announcement, it is still important to test new features before they are released to the public in order to ensure that they are bug-free and work as expected.
