BUG? Best Answers not showing up as such?

According to the Recent Activity in my profile, I got the Best Answer for this:

http://www.mahalo.com/answers/Mahaloian/meet-the-mahaloian-of-the-week-bunnyphuphu

But no Best Answer is shown for that question at all. It says "Best Answer chosen by asker" - then nothing.

My answer appears in the list of answers as if the question was still open.

Bug?

Anyone else seeing strange things like that?

I know for a fact that there are still bugs with "best answers".

They will either duplicate themselves and come back into your "recent activity" or, I have seen them get multiple best answers (a ba is picked but it still goes through the voting process, resulting in 2 best answers).

I thought they fixed the multiple problem shortly after the 2.0 change.

(scratching head)

I had a group of 3 best answers that would pop up on my history every day for about 5 days. After the initial posting and proper points, it would just show as 0 points, so I looked at it like a "shadow".

I'm glad you got best answer on that question!

What matters is the truth.
The truth is out there. Just ask Scully or Moulder!

The truth is out there. However it may possibly have been abducted by aliens. In which case it'll be quite hard to find. :)

I haven't been on Mahalo too long but I have noticed some anomalies.

I haven't been jotting these down though but will from now on and as I get them i'll share them where appropriate.
