Fantastical Reminder Issue with Google Calendar
Test #1: I attempt to create a event with no alarm
Here is how I create a new event using Fantastical:
http://www.krunk4ever.org/fantastical/01.png
Note that I didn't add any alarms here.
Here's how it looks on Google:
http://www.krunk4ever.org/fantastical/02.png
Note that it has a default alarm of 30 mins before the event.
Opening the event in Fantastical shows 2 alarms:
* 30 mins before (message)
* 4 hours before (message with sound)

I go and try to edit by removing the 2 existing alarm and adding a 123 minute alarm before the event:

Google calendar reflects the change:

I quit Fantastical at this point and reopen the event and see:

Note that it's reverted back to the original 2 alarms.
Quitting Fantastical ensures that it's not using the cached event.

Test #2: I attempt to create an event with an alarm set
Here is how I create a new event using Fantastical:
http://www.krunk4ever.org/fantastical/11.png
Note that I added an alarm for 99 mins before the event
Here's how it looks on Google:
http://www.krunk4ever.org/fantastical/13.png
Opening the event in Fantastical shows 2 alarms:
* 99 mins before (message)
* 4 hours before (message with sound)
http://www.krunk4ever.org/fantastical/12.png
I go and try to edit by removing the 4hr alarm and changing the 99min alarm to 321 mins:

I quit Fantastical at this point and reopen the event and see:

Note that it's reverted back to the original 2 alarms.
