I have come to realize that there is confusion on how six packs work. I also noticed that the instructions are a little weak for them. Here is the original post that introduced six packs. I'll try to bring the instructions up to date soon also.

I don't know why, but as of this morning my time, it is proving almost impossible to get to a purple heart, even though I have consumed a truckload of beers, and never let myself run out of sixers.
Has the sixer drinking thing been accidentally turned off with the change from Halloween settings?

I noticed that as well, a week or so ago, I went through 17 sick packs, logged on and drank 1 beer and got a ph. Today I went through several sixxers while off line and it took near 2 hours to get my first PH. My DPH came late (so it seemed, but I was not counting beers).

I'll have to look into this guys. Anybody else having a similar experience? The Halloween code was identical to last year and so turning it on or off should not have introduced any new bugs... but, having said that, the game has suddenly seemed to be sprouting a number of problems that are new and unique and for which I don't have a ready explanation so I'll have to check to be sure. Thanks for the report! I'll let you know what I discover.

Things seem to be back to normal.
It's just gone out of sync for me, as I used to get mine first thing my time of a morning, but it's now in mid afternoon !

I haven't changed anything or found anything wrong yet. The formula for six pack consumption is rather strange (I've explained it elsewhere) and your login pattern can easily cause a delay in when six pack consumption starts or resumes. So perhaps that's what happened here.
