Please forward this to the software engineer that resolved this. THANK YOU!
This bug was like a zit on prom night and I couldn't un-see it and it really bothered me. It's funny, and sad, how something so minor could totally break my enjoyment of the game. I spent many nights trying to resolve this issue because I just couldn't find evidence it was happening to anyone else. Also, I work in tech support so I naturally have to try and fix everything.
