Exodus Glitch

         I had 12 armies advancing on my city Blackthorn, including at least one siege camp and a blockade.  I watched them for more than a day to see how many armies they would commit and when I thought most of their forces were on the march I exodused the city to a location about 20 squares away before logging off for the night.  The nearest army was more than eight hours away at the time, and exodus was supposed to last four or five hours.  The Exodus began 27 Jan 3:40
        
         

        
        
         The next day I logged in, rebuilt a few levels of buildings, and sent caravans from several cities with resources to help the new city build.  There were no armies anywhere near the new location and the camps at the old location showed as "hostile occupying forces".  However, my military movements page still showed four red armies incoming and well into the trip.
        
        
         

        
        
         Somehow the blockade, now far away from my city, captured caravans from three different sources between 13:56 and 15:22 with the usual result.  Others escaped the blockade without delivering their cargo to the city.
        
        
         

        
        
         At 14:34 I captured spies in Blackthorn, interrogated them and found they were sent by dravog, a player whose nearest city is 500 squares away.
        
        
         

        
        
         At 18:33 one of the newly-built building levels was destroyed by sabotage, presumably also sent long before the city was moved.
        
        
         

        
        
         At 20:08 I received a mail stating that an attacking army had begun a siege against Blackthorn at location 679|-82 and that it would begin firing at 28 Jan 08:08.  The city is now located at 660|-91.  There is no way the siege camp or the blockades should have any effect.
        
        
         

        
        
         In short, after paying all of the penalties of exodus such as lost building levels and immobilized armies, the game is still reacting as if the city had never moved.
        
        
         

        
        
         Ticket # 9628.  I'd really like to see this resolved before the siege camp nukes my town with their ICBMs.  Hopefully with restoration of the captured caravans and repair of any damage due to siege bombardment and and losses due to armies that were already incoming and should not hit the town.
