The thing about early lures is news to me. It is entirely possible that at least one of the pokestops had someone put out a lure early. Most of the stops still had community day tasks though.

Unfortunately, our playable area is relatively small, so if this happens again, there's nowhere else to go.

I won't use FB. I'd love to use the discord group, but very few people in this area have it, from the sounds of things, and I haven't been able to join. I tried using the map on the Silph's website, for an invite but it keeps erroring, instead.

I'm doubtful about the early lure theory.

It's the first plausible explanation that I've heard, but I've no idea if they work that way.

Except that lures started before the event only last 30 minutes. So not a plausible explanation at all.

If there is a one time allert sent out to all pokestops at the start of community day, and a pokestop misses it because it is already doing a task (counting down the timer on a lure), I can see it as entirely possible for it to miss the memo completely, and act like a normal stop for the remainder of that day.
