Funkenschlag Bug: Plant 50 Removed

[SpaceSquirrel]

Greetings!

I just finished a game of Funkenschlag where the #50 plant was "removed from the game".  I'm pretty sure it happened when the Stage 3 card came out.  I am fairly certain there is no scenario in the rules that dictates removal of the highest numbered plant.

Unfortunatley, I don't remember what phase the stage 3 card came out during, or if the smallest numbered plant was also removed.  I know the 50 had appeared, but I can't remember if it was in the future market when the stage 3 card came out or if it had already been placed on the bottom of the pile.

Killervirus was also in the game and was the one that really noticed it.  I clearly saw (and took not of) the 50 get the "Red Arrow Treatment" and be removed from the game, but didn't realize it was against the rules.  Killervirus later asked where the 50 was (I don't think he had noticed the popup about it being removed from the game), and we realized it must have been a bug.

Killervirus asked who we could talk to, and since he speaks German and I don't I suggest he checked the bulletin boards, so hopefully he will and get things sorted out, but in case he doesn't I thought I would post to the English Boards ("English Bulletin Board", "C10 EnglishTown" as the biggest English speaking town, and my town "C41 Emerald.City" sorry if the cross post is inappropriate) to warn people to pay attention and hopefully sort things out.

My guess is that the 50 was the highest plant when the Stage 3 card came out, but was identified as the "smallest" plant do to some kind of variable corruption or array overrun sort of thing, but that's just a guess.
