0 new ones and 6237 updates, that just isn't possible

Also my following submission (after running a full census on a high pop server, and I definitely logged out properly, so should've saved) was:

Perhaps a one-off hiccup, but worth mentioning anyway. The first one is definitely not right though...

Edit: looking at top contributors, it's not just me with unlikely numbers... www.warcraftrealms.com/user/Sojan has:

Riight, something's not quite working here

I don't really know any answers here...
But it is possible that these odd results are due to the large table of data in the database system that Metalbeast discovered has problem.
He is working on that, but it may entail more down time and possible restructure on that portion of the database to better handle this type of problem.

I've put up the "beast" light (email) on the various topics, to make sure he is aware of what people are finding.

I hate to say this... but... looking at the link Balgair gave suggests that things are still bugged... which means Metalbeast might be forced to do another complete rollback and try again... Even worse, I assume many of us do not have backups of our uploads, so some data loss is going to happen...

I made a backup of my only submission for today and for now I am going to stop uploading entirely for a while and make smallish backup files for later use instead...

Yep, I'd suggest everyone does NOT purge/prune for a few days till this is sorted... I hope it's not going to mean another rollback, but there's definitely something wrong with those examples, at least. Can't see any others, but not many seem to have processed since the rollback - all three of us have some due to go through shortly, hopefully those will look more normal.
