This happened to me on Monday in Magatia. Ticked me off greatly, as I waited a little more than an hour and a half for that last 80% to be filled, and wasted 201 pie pieces in the process.
It appears that being counted as participating in the battle requires seeing that 'Pie/Cake team has taken over the town!' notice. The likelihood that Nexon will fix this by making the trigger to be counted as participating be something else is low, considering that triggering the glitch requires CCing during a very small timeframe.
The lesson that I learned from my experience? Don't CC when there are less than 5 seconds remaining, even if my party consists of the only Pies in town (of which we were all 2nd/3rd jobbers) desperately looking for a Cake Boss to kill in peace. Even with that 18x Night Lord on Cake along with the unholy mob stalking us all through every channel.
(Yes, the way the event was designed makes me more and more bitter with each passing day. But whatever.)
