Cecil task timing

I'm not sure what someone did to figure it out before as I wasn't around for stonecutters. But for this event it's completely random. There was some tracking done in the comments section at tstoaddicts and we all got different tasks and different times on the same day. The only thing consistent is that the daily tasks will start at midnight in your time zone. No idea how that will work out if you're crossing timezones.

Good luck and safe travels.

EDIT: was thinking out loud about something, looked it up and it doesn't seem possible with the android api anyways, removed to avoid confusion
  • Thanks for replying, and too bad if the tasks truly are random. So far my tasks end at midnight the time zone I'm in, no matter the starting time zone.

    My travel will be done before the event ends, so I'm not stressing about it :)
  • I was traveling when I updated and now the task clock is in a different time zone. I'm off by 2 hrs!

    I have 4 active towns. I visit all of them in sequence, same time of day ... pow,pow,pow,pow. They're all on the same schedule, and have been since this started. I have no idea why that is, but I'm not complaining. :?:
  • I know they're random, but has anyone been paying attention to see if there's a maximum time for them? I think I've only had one 6 hour task so far, but would it be possible to have FOUR 6 hour tasks in one day? Obviously at that point the max reward would be impossible to achieve, which doesn't seem fair. Can you maybe only get one 6 hour task per day? Even if you got 6, 4, 4, and 4, that would be annoying.
  • Yesterday, I had 4, 4, 4, 6. Really annoying, and my schedule for the day did not allow me to finish the last task before time was up, but as with the Stonecutters' event the last unfinished task carried over and counted as today's first task. Not ad good as having been able to finish it yesterday, but a little help still.
