Description
g.d.o is sending a broken signup confirmation:
------
Thanks Some User for signing up for our event. You will be reminded 1 day before the event.
Some Event Name
[Untimed]
%user_signup_info
------
%user_signup_info is apparently a token that isn't being replaced.
#1
I posted a duplicate issue over a #512716: Signup email token replacement problem. Doesn't add much additional information, but confirms the bug for two more people.
#2
I noticed this problem again today and went to confirm the configurations (see attached screenshot).
So, it doesn't seem to be a "simple" answer :/

There are a combination of factors here:
A) g.d.o does not define any additional signup fields in its signup form, so it's kind of silly for the confirmation email template to include that token at all. that's just a g.d.o configuration issue.
B) There's a bug in signup where this token does not get set to an empty string on sites that don't have any additional info. See #439294: user_signup_info token not replaced on sites that don't define a signup form for patches.
