On May 31th, after a siege was concluded, there was a server crash due to an unrelated issue. This created a rare condition where the city ownership change was not fully saved by all storage subsystems.

This was announced by Tasos of Dark fall forum. Any such inconsistency in the data is automatically corrected by the system during the scheduled maintenance window which unfortunately happens to be several hours after the fact. The siege results will be saved during the scheduled maintenance. While this kind of automatic correction happens for all things to maintain the stability of the system, this happens to be a major event and Team will inform the interested parties: City ownership will be automatically finalized during the data consistency checks within the scheduled maintenance window. This means that the city will be owned by the winner of the challenge.

The GMs have been in touch with the two clans involved in this issue explaining that the city ownership may go to the clan that won the challenge in order to minimize any undesirable effects by this correction.

The Dev team is working on solutions to prevent thing alike to happen again.
