Half time boosters

I have an issue with these!   

I worked hard enough to earn a short half time booster in the goldfish event - yay!  But because I go out to work, the booster had both started and finished by the time I got home meaning I got no benefit from it whatsoever! so there was little if no point in putting in that much effort.  @mods: please can you ask the team if the boosters we earn can at least go 'on hold' until the next time we can log in so that we dont waste our efforts.  Thanks,

    They are pointless for that very reason

    When you place in the top 500 on wheel of fortune the double points starts next time you log in.  They should be able to do that with this award too.  Makes no sense the way they do it.

    Not true - just tested it with the ending of the WWC wheel - placed in top 50, earned 24 hour EXP booster, logged out before wheel ended, waited 5 minutes after the wheel ended before logging back in, booster shows 23hrs54mns running.  i.e. - the booster started immediately when the wheel ended.

    Always been this way as far as I can remember.

    Correct! Would be nice to be able to start these earned boosters/reduced what ever's when we want :)
  • I can see why they wont less us bank them 'indefinitely' but just until we next log on would be good enough.

    I have reported this sooooo many times I forget how many.  :(  If my memory serves me right (I do have CRS - can't remember sh*t syndrome) I don't think I've EVER received a reply on this issue.  :(

    Being in the southern hemisphere we always suffer when the 1/2 time production is won as the event (s) usually finish while we are getting our beauty sleep so miss out on some, most or all of the winning time.  It's time that the timer starts when you next log on NOT when the event finishes.

    I'm glad that someone else is fed up with working very hard on the event (s) to win the shorter time only to lose it because of the start time.  Yay!!  (Not the losing part - the fed up part).

    I think the developers did this on purpose so that we don't actually get the reward we deserve.  :(
  • Next time you log in does not work ether.  For AU most of the time it would start it just before we go to bed so therefore we lose most still.  Say if you log  20 mins on before you go to work then again when at work you will miss most as well.  Best is you have 2 weeks in which you activate it.  Therefore you would not be able to get multiples in bank to use 1 after the other but then you have time to start when YOU are ready.  This is how other farm games do it.

    I think they can delay start of the half timers to a max of 24 hrs .....
    I know they wont delay it to infinity ...

    Lets hope ...

    Better still, sell half timers in Trade centre ... for gold ....

    The half time ones usually start about 2 am my time.
    Wasted effort. Sad.
  • even if they allowed 1 week to start when ready would be better then you could start on weekend if you are home, or whatever suited you best.

    Any word from the company if they have done anything about half time rewards starting when we log back on the game after events end?
