Missions still finishing early

Had 8 seconds to go on my egg mission.  About to collect another batch of eggs & the mission finished.

Why is this still happening?

    Sometimes, there is  discrepancy between the computer clock and the server clock. Your computer clock can be a few seconds off, sometimes even a minute. Refreshing the game frequently helps a bit, but you you must always count on this phenomena.

    Oh, thanks.  I was just trying to get another harvest in and beat my opponent by doing it in the last few seconds.

    I was only out by 3 eggs.  Oh well.  Another day, another mission.  :)

    Sometimes the timers in game also get out of sync due to a tiny lagspike. During peak hours and if your farm is big/connection is slow, you may get several tiny lagspikes that each de-sync the timer by like a second or so.
    Most spikes are barely noticeable at least to me because typically I keep the farm open and just check occasionally.

    An easy way to check if you need to reload is if something is about to finish. I've noticed my timers in game are usually out of sync if the harvest timers say something just finished but they don't show up until a couple of seconds later or finish before the timer and the timer skips a few seconds. ^-^
    Happens a lot to me when I've had the game open for a long while, especially if I've not had the game window active and even more so if I've been playing say, another game on full screen while waiting for harvests.

    Anyway, I can't explain things in short form! Not gonna say this is for sure what's happening to ya but it's an option. (= If your connection's quick you can always reload halfway/5-10 minutes before a mission ends to make sure you're synced up! I usually don't bother unless I know it's out of sync because it can load slow for me. XD

    Thanks Niryn.  I also had noticed the lag between the timer saying that the item had finished but it couldn't be picked it until a few more seconds had lapsed.  I always wondered why that happened.  Now I know.  See, you learn something new everyday!
