The title might be a little misleading, so bear with me before you flame me uncontollably and toast my ego to a crisp (trust me, I know toasted... :^o).

 

 

 

Anyways, I have finally begun using the Miscellania kingdom. Don't mind spending a little cash every day for herbs and such, so I go there every single day to pick up supplies. After a little while, though, I noticed something odd; when I accidently came too early I would sometimes notice I could still collect my supplies. In fact, I noticed that the day reset based not on when you asked the workers to collect the supplies, but rather on the time in Britain. I was able to collect twice within one hour (once at midnight in Britain and once one hour later). Unfortunately, I accidently got my approval up 1%, so I messed up the pic. Today, the gap is four hours long, but it still gets the point across. Tomarrow I'll try to get a better picture if all goes well.

 

 

 

Here are the pictures:

If you still don't believe me, fine. I find it very odd, though. What do you think about it? And please don't tell me that this is a common post. IT can't be! #-o

Interesting. I like using Manage Thy Kingdom. You gain an extra 100K or so every day. :)

time zones. it was saturday for 100%, sunday there for 99%

That's what I'm saying! :wall:

It has to use the time from somewhere... Easier if they set it to the timezone they are in if they need to test bugs.

Perhaps if you time it correctly, you could collect double the supplies in one trip? But it would probally just be easier to let it accumulate over time...

If you think the title might be misleading, it might be an idea to have a less stupid title. The fact it resets at midnight has nothing to do with egotism.

 

 

 

If they based it on when you collected the supplies then

 

a) They'd have to store an extra value for every player in the database, which is a waste of resources when there's an easier way to do it

 

B) People would have to write down or remember exactly what time they last went rather than have an easy to remember international standard to reference

 

and

 

c) It would make it more inconvenient for no reason. If people want they can use the set time to collect two loads of resources in one quick run, rather than being forced to wait an entire day.

I'm just going to say, not egotistical at all as Jagex is an English company based in England. So I'll have to agree with Smapla and Unitedite.

pointless topic, why would it use another timezone of to reset at midnight? itd just make it more complicated not just resetting it at midnight their time.

probaly right on all 3 things

Actually that's really interesting. Good job for finding this Rhino! As others have been saying the time had to come from somewhere, so why not where Jagex is :P .
