This probably seems like a silly question, but are you positive you didn't get them? I have never once received a message saying I got my merits for that TF, but I have always actually gotten them.

Positive. Got nothing but the 2 Merits for Babbage... There is some bug with that TF. Past comments in patch notes and other players messages on the board have shown before that there was a reward issue with this TF.
I thought it got fixed. But it seems it is not.
I may disagree with what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it.

I have not run Synapse in about a month, but last time I ran it, I received no merits.
Not even a message stating I earned merits.
I remember they fixed a bug a while back that would make you get half merits if you'd run positron before doing synapse and vice versa, maybe they broke something else in fixing that one?

Just ran it last night... and 2 nights ago..
Working just fine for the rest of us. The merits dont award until everyone leaves the last mission map, so if you quit before then, you wont get the reward merits.

We've got some folks over on Justice running the various TF's required for TF commander, in order. Tuesday they ran Synapse, so I asked in the thread about the merits.
This was the response I got that indicated they did receive the merits.
If the game spit out 20 dollar bills people would complain that they weren't sequentially numbered. If they were sequentially numbered people would complain that they weren't random enough.

I received an update and GM gave me my 57 Merits. It seems that compared to some other TFs, Synapse is very slow to give out the Merits and like other guy said in thread, will award them only when everyone gets out of mission.
It seems i exited mission after completion and i left team before leader was out and this "could" explain why i did not get merits.
That be said, Merits really should be awarded at the same time badge and other rewards for TF completion are given. What if leader takes extended AFK and do not come out of mission for 15 minutes? Everyone must wait to get their Merits? That is not nice.

The current system is in place beacuse there was an exploit involving the leader quitting the team and awarding merits to everyone, then repeat all the way down the team list.
I ran Synapse today, got merits as soon as everyone left the mission, which was basically 1 min after the mission complete.

Maybe it is a random bug but i completed Synapse TF tonight and was not awarded any Merits. I was awarded the badge and the gladiator though...
I am still waiting for my 57 Merits... I petitioned and got no in-game answers within 2 hours so i logged out.
I hope this can be solved via e-mails because you will never have me wait again for 2 hours in-game... Really not happy about the Support time response but i guess that this is not a bug, unfortunately...
