@Matty, Cireon: there is a bug which happens sometimes on same time, when two players are trying to kill an enemy capital at the same time. The log would show both players defeated said player - but of course only one gets the reinforcements. I never gave this much thought, but after reading more from Matty on how the backend works now, it sounds like this shouldn't be possible.

To ensure there are no weird glitches in, say, same time games, there is a block on the database per game. So only one player can conqueror a territory at the time. If two players try to attack a territory (in the same game) at the same time, then one of them will have to wait x time (not sure what that x is), and then try again (if then someone is attacking, he ...)). This should not change anything for normal games, but same timers (like you) will probably notice this when the server is stressed already.
I've seen this happen a bunch of times. For instance in this game from yesterday:
