Bug or exploit?

I posted this in the general discussion area and someone with 2000+ posts couldn't explain it and thought it might be a bug or exploit.

So I'm posting it here. Is there any other possible explanation for it?

And ... if not, does any bug fixing admin want to look into it before the attack logs expire?

I got hit (raided) 5 times in a row.

In the first attack, the attacker sent:

12,996 Networked Liberator sent Macro Quantum Multiverse WorldShips

In the next four, they sent:

5,000 Networked Liberator launched Macro Quantum Multiverse WorldShips

Eh? How is that possible? You can't untrain your networked liberators. What happened to the 12996 that were sent in the first attack? The second attack came a minute later ... where did they go?

Can someone explain this?

Looks like in one it is the amount of units sent, in the other is how many had weapons, if you'd posted the same logs then we could tell the difference

It is possible that he attacked a lot and lost many...
Or that he got "assassinated."
Or both.

Give the times of the three attacks. It might help confirm my theory, if not put it to doubt...

= Reality =
There are three realities.

There's perceived reality, which is subjective.

There's actual reality, which is what actually exists.

And then there's me.

The attacks were all pretty much back to back (within minutes of each other). Unfortunately, you cannot get the exact times once a day has passed. They all just say Jan 30.

Also ... these attacks are going to "expire" and drop off my attack log within the next day. If anyone has any interest in chasing down a possible exploit, they should probably get a hold of me soon before the database data gets cleared out.

I would hate to think that the ascended game has loopholes and exploits in it right when we are getting close to rolling descension out.
