I will also note that the nuke that was reportedly spied away was the only nuke in my possession at the time. My total entering today was 0.

Personally I blame processor pipelining for this, not so much a bug as a hardware "stuff happens" kind of thing.

Geata last purchased a nuclear weapon on 5/18/2009 12:17:04 AM. He then launched it at Energizer at 5/18/2009 12:17:09 AM. Where is the bug here?

He successfully spied away the nuke at the same time it was launched.

He was lucky, or more likely an F5'er

I suspect that this was a coordinated effort by both parties. <_<

You both performed your action at the same moment, the game calculated that Gaeta had 1 nuke and a fraction of a moment later it was launched. The spy screen continued to process and provided the alert that the nuke had been destroyed when it had actually already been fired away.
