My buddies and I were basically sealing the deal in a 3v3 on cataract.  We got to giants first and kept locking the top left and right flags.  However, something was either a) bugging out b ) there is a new v1.1 item that I am not aware of that unlocks a flag lock or c) new exploit where someone is able to remove a flag lock before 45 seconds (or possibly d) there are diminishing returns on flag locks)?!  I have no idea.  I'm sure most of you can imagine how excruciatingly painful it is to watch your Demigod place a flag lock, watch it leave your consumable belt so you know for certain that it has been used, then only see it instantly removed mere seconds later.  It's even more painful to know that the circumstances described here lost us the game.  Wtf, anyone? 

P.S. I don't care if your Demigod philosophy would dictate that we shouldn't have had to use flag locks to win in the first place.  That is not the issue here.  There is something going on, and the forums are the place to seek solutions and to find others who have experienced similar issues.
