Why are my events in really bizarre places?

Aug 14, 2008 9:08:21 Looking at my current and past events, I have locations listed that are not only wrong, but very wrong and seemingly random.

Locations include:
Saint Paul, MN
Sao Paulo Brazil
Springfield MO
Wellington, New Zealand
Troy, NY
New Port Richey, FL
Queenscreek, AZ
Richardson, TX
Tuebingen, Germany
Ada, OK
Besiktas, Turkey
Albany, NY

Only the first of my home games acutally has the correct location of Alhambra, CA

Also, two of my SoCal Gencon events are listed as Invalidated but they weren't invalid before... sup with that? Granted they are from 2006, but still I did indeed play in those events with about 200 other players.

My current three games are all incorrect, but it's almost too late to revise them as I dont have time window available before this weekend (one of the games is tonight)

I'm not sure the locations are that important, although admittedly incorrect locations for future events which were in the old database could be a problem!

It's worth noting that the order window might not be in operation - could be worth trying to re-create the events if you want correct locations.

Aug 14, 2008 9:17:59 I'll do so for those events that I can (we have a retail store game day coming up in two weeks so I had better fix that one or the location will be in Amsterdam or something!)

My Xen'Drik character lost 4 levels.

Aug 14, 2008 12:38:55 Yes, suddenly my events are in Sao Paolo Brazil as well.
This includes one I have to report now. Fortunately it is an LG core, but I still wonder if I should report it.

Yeah, that sums it up. I have events in places I've never been, too. Nice job. I had to reset my password to get in. I can go on, but I won't. I'll just say it's just as bad as it was before.
