Planet Stealing Bug

Last night I went and stole a planet back from the user that had taken it from me. I immediately went on PPT. Earlier today I noticed that the player had taken it back. I know that me and the other player were the only people who knew where the planet was for first 24 hours but how did he manage to take it back from me when I was on PPT?

I THINK this maybe what happened.
PlayerX took your planet, and 12 or more hours later, you took it back, and went on PPT.
As the message says, it takes 12 hours for a stolen planet to be affected by PPT. Yes it was your planet being reclaimed, but ownership is based on which account it stated in when taken.
So, if you'd taken it say 20 hours after they did, then in 4 hours (within the 12 hours of no protection, and 24 hours after initially taking it) then they can take it back through PPT.
Is this what happened?
