Is this a bug with Surge?

We clearly have not cleared enough districts for this wave, so why is this message showing up?

Your guild has imposed a limit of areas you can clear per surge. So you’ve reached that limit in this surge and can’t clear anymore.

“this wave” is really misleading, it actually means that someone has set a limit for the entire surge, like @skeeter says
