Thanks for the help thus-far Oliver, and I apologize if I'm not grasping
the problem appropriately on my side, but with the configuration you've
sent over I no longer see my Special-Event tiles.

Config is as follows:

https://gist.github.com/ampledata/48b982196ffb9aa21c6ddc79863ce3c0

I've tried omitting the 'custom_format' as well, to no avail.

Thanks for any further help!
