Hi,

If I had to guess what happened, it was that you were logged in to a
Google Account, and were also logged in to a Google Apps account at
the same time.

I agree it's pretty frustrating and confusing (for us to!), but here
goes my best attempt at an explanation.

Google Accounts and Google Apps authenticate against different
systems, so you can be logged in to one Google Account and multiple
Google Apps accounts (for different domains) all at the same time.
Usually this isn't an issue because most services use either Google
Apps or Google Accounts, but not both.

Google App Engine allows both types of accounts with our system, and
we serve different authentication pages for an account if you go to
http://appengine.google.com/ or
http://appengine.google.com/a/YOURDOMAIN when you sign in to App
Engine.

However, after you are authenticated, when you sign up for an app id
we check who you are and say assign the app to 'x...@y.com' (more or
less). Most of the time, if 'x...@y.com' is a Google Apps account, we'll
assign the app to the Google Apps account (even if you logged in to
Google Accounts).

Like I said, it's pretty confusing, which is why we suggest not using
accounts with App Engine that are both Google Accounts and Google Apps
accounts:

It generally avoids this confusion.

Let me know if this clears up what happened, and if you need
additional help with assigning the correct admins to the correct apps.
