Registration needs to be suspended until this bug is eliminated, or there has to be some other means of remedying the situation. I bought a platinum badge and cannot register for a single non-premium event. Not only am I being told by the server that I don't have enough sp to purchase events -- even though I have 35 of the 35 that I purchased remaining -- but while I'm frozen out most of the events that I was wanting to register for are selling out. I can see that I am not the only one. My question is, "What are you going to do to remedy this?"
I'm as frustrated as you are Lestyan, but I know Dale and Luke are doing everything they can to make this experience a good one for us.
Luke and Dale are the best. This kind of thing happens. But it still needs to be shut down, the bug fixed and have a new fresh registration day set up. Only fair way of dealing with this.
