You are right, its connected to that other thread, and I might of thought about that sub conciously when I asked the question, How much over does it have to be?
Except I assumed it was exactly the time specified, in this particular case it seems more stupid for it to be nearer 4 days than 3 days.
I might not have noticed exceeding the target by many hours on previous occasions,but its not something I have done that often.
I can see now why Ivar asked me if I used a 15 hour boost, it would have definately put me over an extra 24 hours.
Either way it needs attention, but in other areas I have seen, or believed I have seen, where equalling the target set is not enough, you have to exceed it.
I wonder if the new format has had a effect on this, and if it is as you suggested
3 days 23 hours 59 minutes and 59 seconds, I would have thought they could have definitively given this explanation.
Ivar I will definitely let you know if I see it happen again, and thanks for taking the trouble to try to get to the bottom of it, it was only 15 pts and 1 reward I missed, so not a big deal,in the scheme of things, but I was annoyed at the time, and wanted to know why it appeared to be faulty.
