*There was an error in the campaign duration and has been corrected on August 29, 2020."

Um, so today is the 7th of August, it's FRIDAY, so does this event start today or MONDAY 10th?

Also, how can it have been "corrected on August 29, 2020"?

:confused:

Well it seems that it did indeed start today, if my CP gains in the last few minutes are correct.

They also have/had the start for the freebie log-in times incorrect for the EU side, saying it starts on the 17th.

Made me share some pretty well wrong info to a bunch of people...

Note to future self: read the ending dates also, as it may be a good indicator of something being amiss.

(Also, the Dark Matter campaign still erroneously says twelve times for the first round, despite it having been reported multiple times via the localisation and bug reports forums here.)
