Describe the Bug:
It's hard to pin down the bug here, but this is what I can report after casting Orcish Catapult 30 times in a row.

1) If more than 1 mana is spent on {X} Orcish Catapult puts one -0/-1 counter on one random creature at most, no matter whether 2 or 10 mana was spent on {X}. In many cases, no counter was put on any creature.

2) Catapult never put a counter on a creature when I spent 1 mana on {X}. This might be mere coincidence, though.

3) The card seemingly uses (blank) legacy effect cards to determine which creatures out of the ones on the battlefield are recieving a counter. The number of legacy cards temporarily attached this way can exceed X. Even if each creature on the battlefield gets marked this way, there's still a chance no creature will recieve a counter.
In some cases, the spell did not attach any legacy effect cards at all. In that case, no counter is put on any creature.

Additionally, when I cast Orcish Catapuöt for the first time after Manalink had been (re-) started, the following dumps were prompted before the spell resolved:
