Prep day shorter then real time.

I started upgradng my level five archer tower to level 6, which takes twentyfour hours. Then I waited a few minutes and started a war search. By the time I found one, the archer tower had 23 hours 58 minutes left, and prep day had 23 hours 59 minutes left. I went to sleep. Now, the archer tower has 8 hours 15 minutes, and prep day has 8 hours 7 minutes left. It's not fair that now I will have to pay gems to finish the tower because supercell messed up their timer. I did some timing and a prep day minute is actually a full second faster than the upgrade time. Doesn't seem like much? Every hour prep day will be one more minute ahead, so after twentyfour hours, it will be twenty four minutes ahead. That's 8 gems I'm paying because supercell messed up.

It has something to do with the Time Bug:

What he said ^

Every time you load the game, visit a village, click next to find a new attack, basically anything that loads something, and a few seconds will be added on all your upgrade timers.

Sucks balls but thats how it is.

I have been forced to press NEXT nearly 500 times today to find some bases that help me get back 500,000 gold. Does it mean that I have been losing 500 seconds (~8m20s)? Painful!

SC doesn't want to fix this bug because it reduces their profit.

We cannot claim that it is a bug because it is made intentionally. We are shocked as the fact is not well told in public before it is discovered. I don't care much about it. I will stop playing for some days to forget the pain caused by the stupid biased matching system. I have to admit that CoC is my worst nightmare of life. I like it as much as I dislike it!

So true haha.

So the more I play, the more the time "bug" affects me.

if the time for prep is correct, then they CAN fix the building time bug.

if the time for prep is wrong, then there is an issue with their timing. really!!!

from the previous posts, they said that fixing the time bug will be needing a whole program recoding. so, if the prep time is correct (exactly 24 hours) even you logged-in several times, then they CAN FIX the time building bug!!! just apply same logic with the building times.

programmer's POV:
if they said that they need to re-code all from scratch, then they have not designed the game correctly.

if you have a modularized code let say for JAVA - called classes. you just need to call that "class" for it to be implemented for the building time instead of re-typing the code manually. so all buildings will just call the "class" and you won't need to rebuild the program from scratch.

well, that's just me. a bit technical on this part.

Unless of course the timing bug is a result of them using java... A flaw in the language or something.

JAVA was just an example. I don't know if they have shared the language they are using or not. though I'm not looking for it anyways. lol

the thing is, if the prep time is correct, then they can also fix the building time. which they have said that they need to redo their coding. which i think is just an excuse or they do not prioritize this bug - since they earn from it.
