It's good that you tested it offline first - I'm not sure why the bugs appeared in the live version, then...

This problem occurred with me, first of all. I had one song in Techno this month, Mindbender. It was at 38. Here's the sequence of events:

1. In April, I entered two songs in Techno for the month of May. These songs were "Bazaar" and "Throwdown".

2. When I heard the announcement, in April, that only one song would be allowed, I withdrew one of the songs and ended up with only one, "Throwdown", which was entered in Techno. I entered "Mindbender" into Electronic.

3. A few days into May, "Mindbender" was removed from Electronic for being off-topic, so I withdrew Throwdown from Techno, and entered Mindbender into Techno instead. Total songs in Techno: 1 (Mindbender.) Total songs in Electronic: 1 (Throwdown.)

4. I get an email saying I had THREE songs in Techno: "Bazaar" (one of the ones I entered for the May contest during April, which I withdrew before May started), "Mindbender", and "Throwdown". The system removed "Mindbender", thus removing my only Techno contest track and forcing me to lose my ranking.

The exact same thing happened to my friend and last month's grand prize winner sgx. Except he only had one song in the entire CONTEST! His was "Crowdpleaser (Drop the Mic Mix)" in Electronic, and he was in the top 20 - even higher than me. He got the same error message, that he had multiple songs entered when he didn't (he withdrew any extras before the month started) and "Crowdpleaser" was removed.

The same thing ALSO happened to Jillian Goldin! Her song "Red July", her only entry in Pop, was removed because the system said she had multiple songs there when she didn't. She had previously withdrawn songs from the category, but was definitely only competing with the one song by the time May started.

All of us re-entered our songs, but again, we all lost ranking that has not been restored. I sent a ticket in a minute after I figured out what happened and I'm pretty sure the others did too.
