Alliance bug (new)

I found that even the vote has passed itself for over two months, the airline still doesn't get into the alliance. I beleive that it's a bug and please fix it asap.... Thanks.

-kicks it- man... i've got half a mind to strangle this alliance code.

I'm double checking it, When i figure out what's going wrong and why, i'm gonna run a quick'n'dirty update script to manually put in all accepted players in each world who otherwise have been affected by this bug (my understanding is Exec Orders don't fail like these do).

edit: at the moment, it's 4:45 am. when i wake, i'm gonna triple check the code, slap it a few times, possibly even print it out so i can feel the self satisfaction of tearing it to shreds. then, with luck, fix it and finally be free from this bug -_-

Stressed, not as much as frustrated at this piece of code... I keep thinking I've fixed it and nope. wily bug.

Anyways. Looking into it, I have a good idea of what it was at this point, I just need to wake up enough to try catching up everyone's entry petitions. Hopefully, barring terrible distraction or death, I can get that together as a once-off script later this evening. Any very recent votes work (as in, within the past 8 hours)?

and No. do NOT rush off to re-apply, I will be getting the update/correction in place by the end of tomorrow if this is the correct bug. If not, this ETA may be out the window.

ok. i ran what looks like the patch. let me know if players who were voted in still aren't in, make sure they hop out of and back into the world though.
