I have also submitted a bug report for the situation. Not trying to badger them, but just wanted to provide additional information for the cause to try and help hurry along the repair. Hopefully they pay some attention to the issue so we can get back to not playing like savages.
@Vih - Yes, it sounds just as bad as what I am experiencing. Even though it seems not everyone got as screwed as we did, I'm surprised there are not more posts about it, since it is pretty crippling to playing the game.
