PPT's ending early? *INACTIVE*

I knew ascended PPT's have been messed with in terms of the end time etc to stop descention farming being abused.

However, as of late i've noticed main PPT's were being a little odd, like the timer being delayed a little or faster in some cases. I thought nothing of it and just though i was losing my **Filtered**.

Today however, i woke up and checked my NG account for the PPT timer i recorded it at 601 minutes. That was exactly 10 hours. I set an alarm on my iPhone (Timer) to count down 9 hrs and 45 minutes so that i had 15 minutes to log in and ppt. I logged in 30 seconds after the alarm went off.

I was off ppt, and lose a dual that i bought from the black market, and subsequently lost a layer (the offender was an idiot, i named the dual "Loses layer if taken" and of the 2 duals i had, he still took that one...)

Anyway, i'd like to know why my ppt was ended pre-maturely, as i assure you there was no mistake on my part.

You put wrong time or gave your login details to wrong person and they sabotaged you... that correction with PPT times ending got fixed ages ago

Re: PPT's ending early?

I guess its lucky I did it using a calculator to be sure and checked it several times.

But in reality 601 minutes divided by 60 minutes (1 hour) still comes out at 10 hours and 1 minute. Which means, 9 hours at 45 minutes set on an alarm should give me 16 minutes to log in and ppt. Minus the 30 seconds it took for me to log in (as i was already at my PC) thats 15 minutes and 30 seconds. Yet i found i was off of ppt, and had been attacked multiple times a good 3-4 minutes prior to logging in. Meaning my ppt ended approximately 19 minutes earlier than it should have done.

Add to that, the fact i've had a suspicion over time (without measuring it) that my PPT's have seemed to be a little random and the timer seems to appear as though its not quite tracking the time properly during various ppts...

Then no, it doesnt take a genius to discover something needs to be checked.
