Been busting my butt saving up 26k snowflakes the past few days, and apparently if you just constantly “retired event” you could go all the way to 8 wins getting each and every reward including Zeke or Ward.
I genuinely interested to see if EA penalizes anyone for it but apparently the event is locked currently.

You didn’t get credit for wins. A ton of people had the reason for the season event crash after a DC and the only way to be able to play the solo was to retire the event until you got to game 11 and the restart and be able to play the solos. I was at 14 wins and had the error Friday night. Tried to play for 2 days and it gave me sever errors over and over. Retiring was the only fix. then I was able to finish out my solos. BTW, this was suggested on the EA Help forums as the way to get past the server error. It worked. Played 26 more terribly boring solos and got Zeke.

You definitely got all the rewards in the h2h mode. It was shown on YouTube today, which is why it was taken down.
I had no idea this was going on. Also you got lots of free snow if you were doing this in the offline mode as well.
Today was the first I had heard about it. Apparently it's been a thing since release so people did well keeping quiet on it.
Zirksee posted about it on Twitter today so thats how it went viral
EA will get their shit back don’t worry, thats why I didn’t do it, and people who did will probably catch a ban. When we find something broken and exploit it, see how fast EA notices and fixes it, but whenever it is the other way around, it will take months to have a half ass fix.
Prepare for a lot of “omg I got banned, but didn’t do anything!!” threads.
Didn't know until Zirksee posted it then patched pretty much right away
Don't think anyone will get penalized in any way if they took part
Was unaware until this morning, frustrating to have been grinding trying to get snowflakes in that sweat/cheese-fest that is h2h when lots of people were getting 15k+ snowflakes for free (and getting/selling the 92 for coins).... but whatever, certainly I don' t think EA does anything unless some people were really egregious with it.

Lol, no they won't... it was the only thing you could do.
You try to start the event it wouldn't let you, it would say EA' s servers are processing last game. It would only let you keep retiring.
I think we can prepare for more of the losers saying 'not fair, I didn't get anything!'
i knew about it but didn’t partake. not worth

Odd to say the "losers" were the ones who didn't retire in h2h over and over again for free rewards. Interesting mind state people have.

its easy to track, back in MUT 16 or 15 I don’t remember there was h2h glitch you could do, hundreds if not thousands of people got the ban, including me, lol. Took em about 2 weeks to collect data and hand out the ban hammers. Hey If you get away with it, thats wonderful>more snow>more cards>cheaper prices.

Can’t get banned if it’s a glitch
