Also, here's how you know it's not a "forgot to join" issue - if this was a case of forgetting to join, we should still be able to see the event, just not join, right? That's how the guild events are. I was able to see TWs and TBs long before i was able to participate.
I was looking to join since being paid out for the last GA. I keep up with the dev posts so i knew the start date was 12/20. I checked on 12/19 because i wasn't sure if 12/20 was the beginning of the preview phase or the setup phase. I saw nothing in my game on 12/19 or 12/20 so i was looking for something from EA about another error with the GA rollout. I also saw my guild mates talking about the rewards but i figured they were getting that info from forum posts or something. It wasn't until today that i saw the video from Ahnold and saw more guild talk about setting defenses that i realized this was a bug.
