Does the mystery box/daily play combo 24 hour log in timer not work properly?

I know I've missed over 24 hours and not had the timer reset. My guess is that it is viewing each day as the 24 hour period during which you need to log in as opposed to needing to log in within 24 hours after you logged in previously.

So if you log in at 6 AM on Monday and again at 10 PM on Tuesday, you'll be ok even though you've gone 40 hours between logins.

    I see your point, but I didn't log in all of Saturday. So, that doesn't make sense. That's a full 24 hour day missed.
  • I'm not 100% that I'm correct in what I'm saying but think it works something like this, say it's day 1 just for simplicity, you collect day 1's prize then you have to wait 24 hours to collect day 2's prize, the prize is available for a further 24 hours to collect, you don't lose out on day 2's prize until day 3's prize is ready, so from collecting day 1's prize you get 48 hours to collect day 2's prize, hope that sort of makes sense the way I've typed it.
  • The mystery box just got glitchy for me this morning. When I tapped it to see what I got - "nothing" :shock: For some reason my main town has now fallen behind behind my "B" town by two days even though I tap them both equally and now I'm missing a mystery box.

    This scenario makes much more sense.

    Typically, my prize is available around 4 or 5 pm. I collected day three's prize on Friday. I did not log in on Saturday. On Sunday I collected day four's prize at about 11 am.

    Now today (Monday) I should receive day five's revised mystery box. I assume that should be available around 11 am now.
  • It's been all kinds of screwy since they changed the sync-on-login thing. It's simply not predictable anymore. :?
