Bug with UP event

I had the UP event where you had to vote on how many technologies should be shared amongst the races. At the end of the voting it turned out that only one tech was to be shared, yet I proceeded to get about half-a-dozen free techs! IS this bug known?

... I believe you got 1 tech from each race, no?

I had an issue with this as well. I got 3-6 techs and right after I got them, the little robot told me

"Due to the UP ruling blah blah blah techs must be shared, unfortunately since we're so far advanced we didn't get any, but the other races cleaned up, yippi."

Yet I got 3-6 techs. Odd.

Edit: I was playing a 1vs1 on a tiny map.

I just got this too (metaverse DA)....there were only 3 races in the UP and the vote was to share 3 unique techs. I voted for the max believing that we would be an elite trio (there were 9 AI major races, 7 not yet made first contact).

It seems to have made this share with all the races because the next first contact showed we had the same technologies. I received more than a page-full (on the "events" tab screen) of techs; should've been at most 3 X 2 = 6, I expected.

Strange, how did I miss this thread?

Anyhow, I can confirm, that this UP proposal is indeed bugged. The OptionVal01-03 have been assigned the wrong values (10, 5 and 2, instead 3, 2 and 1).
