Making booster packs from gems

[Patranous]

When you go to the page for creating booster packs it says the following:

Or pick a booster pack for recently collected cards or played game:

I wanted to make a pack for a game where i don't own the game itself but i do have some cards for it but i couldn't get it to let me make the pack. What exactly am I doing wrong?

You can only create booster packs for games you own.

Alright. Thanks. Wasn't sure because of the above text. Makes it sound like if I collected some cards for a different game it would let me craft those packs. I know you can collect cards and make a badge for a game you dont own so I was just wondering.

Yeah I was a little confused as well. So, you can only craft booster packs for games you own and you can only craft one booster pack per game every 24hrs.

This "cooldown" makes absolutely no sense to me. Anyone got an idea why that possibly could be a good thing or useful?

To stop market from being flooded by thousands of boosters.

I also noticed, when i created 4 booster packs , in span of 4 days from same game, vavle blocked me from creating more booster packs of same game, that's sure fair.

Is this actually a thing? Can you confirm this, or was it just a temporary glitch? You create four packs in a row for the same game only, and then you can't make them anymore for that particular game, am I getting it right? And how long does this block last?

There is a link on the booster pack creation page that tell you what games you are eligible to receive packs from.

Yes, there is a limit to how many booster packs you can make in a period of time for a single game.

So there are two limits
1) one per day per game
2) number per period of time
right?
And what is this period exactly?

I made 7 packs in 7 days for 1 game last week.

Sorry, I dont know, I dont make them that often. I can tell you that when you hit the limit, you will get a message telling you. As said above, it might just be one a day per game, but I seem to remember having a longer cool down more than once.

you have to own the game
and
per game: 1 booster per 24 hours

there should be no other restrictions. i have created up 30 per day for different games.
it also should not matter how many times you craft a booster for the same game.
