I've changed this to an 'a', because it's something that's really worrying considering people pay real money for it.

I think I found the issue, which might have been a display bug. I'm not certain, but I think it's fixed.

Just to note: it only looks like it's taking the karma, but it's not. When you move on grid you'll see it hasn't.

I've taken a look and I can't work out why it would be doing it, however. When you say ...

"it was the last boost I had, both times"

What do you mean? Why the last boost? Run out of karma, or just stopped boosting, or reached max energy?

Alex ran out of available boosts to buy. I had 4 the first time and three the second time. Both occasions the last of the available boosts just went poof. :(

And are you sure about the karma? I am pretty sure it DID take it but I have no way to prove that. I wasn't expecting it back either way.

I guess if it was your last available boost, the system might have been miscalculating how many you had left. Keep an eye out for that specifically, when you do it again (if you do). I've tested it but I can't see anything amiss.
