War should be 24 hours but why isn’t it so.

[vansimon]

So there is 15 seconds left in the war, the timer says 15 and counting down and I go to hit and get the message I can’t attack as the war is about to end.... I know it’s about to end, but it has not ended yet....
I know I could have attacked anytime during the 23hrs 59min and 45 seconds before, but I’m holding out waiting for another player and waiting for him to hit. He is on line and requested troops, with a couple of minutes to go. He didn’t hit, so I go in on the lower base and get the message that I can’t attack...

This doesn’t make sense. If the war is 23hrs 59mins and 45secs, then it should say....

Any reason why this has happened. I am sure I have hit before with just seconds to go without issues.

This happened with me too.
From then whenever I have to attack at last moment, to be in safer side I attack@23hrs 59mins 0sec.

Yeah... seems to be so, but just doesn’t seem right. If it’s in the 24hrs window, it should be ok.

I think what you’re experiencing is a simple lag.

That is not big problem because some time few - few different seen in all categories like war start and war end time and attacking time..same this problem happened with me and some time you face time lack and fastly time over problem it is not big deal now just chill and play coc and that is good for you because you take this experience and next time you take care of your attack and war time and never see other attack video in last few minutes.

Well, obviously it WAS a problem for him. Clans can lose wars because of this.

Most likely because it makes it so war doesn't start later and later. It was was exactly 24 hours the time it takes to search for a war adds up and the next time you try to start a war it will be a few hours over the usual time you start a war. Making it 23 hours makes it so there's a 1 hour safe time. Might not be the best explanation but hopefully you understand what I'm saying.

The reason it happens is unimportant....the fact that it happens is the issue. It should be fixed.....and yes this has happened to me in the past.

There are sometimes hours between wars in CWL... and in this case there was 8 mins of prep time between wars, so this isn’t the case.

War day is supposed to be 24 hours..
The 23 hour prep day is what keeps search times in check.

The early war end is a common problem, reported often enough to be of concern, when wars are often won or lost with last ditch attacks..
And same as lags between war days in cwl, no explanation.
