The Red envelope reveal?

Last year in the similar event with the red envelopes, when you revealed your own envelope you used to get bonus points in the top right corner and I'm not seeing that this year. Are we getting the points for the reveal or were we not supposed to get bonus points last year for revealing our own envelope or are we getting them this year but they just aren't flashing on the screen or are we not getting them & we were never supposed to? I hope I make sense because it's a weird question.

    Last year, people made a sport of running around the map grabbing people's envelopes before they could be revealed. It was very troll-ish and nasty, especially the ones who would do that and then immediately suicide, leaving the match with 50k+ points. I'm not BHVR, but I assume this Lunar Event's envelopes were changed in response to that. If you get to your own envelope first, you reveal it and make it easier for others to find, but you don't need to do it; if someone else finds it before it's revealed the person who burned the offering in the first place doesn't lose out on any points. The envelope rewards points to the person who burned the offering and the person who claims it at the same time, everyone wins.

    I like it better this way.
