[MasterMystery]

how do timejokers work?
I used 3 for 4 days each so 12 days, how can i be kicked in a game that started 11 days ago.

and the interface is bugged it says i am overtime for all games on the overview page, so i wouldnt even be able figure out if i am not overtime?

When did you use the jokers? Could it be that you were expelled before using them? I think it appears in the log if you use them, and there is no mention in the replay (but I'm not sure it would appear in a replay).

Time jokers don't work for tournament games, although they should work in Arena.

The game log would show them, and I don't see any used in this particular game.

i used them before time was up, does it show up in post game history? cause i dont see it there either but in the still ongoing one it does,:

You only get 4 jokers per calendar year, so you can't have used 3 in that first game, and also these 2 above. If these two were applied before you used them in the other game, then you at most had 2 available for the other game. But like I said, I don't see them in the log for that game at all.

Does a time joker only apply to one game though? Or all games running? I thought it was only one game and was going to say something similar to this but when I looked at my own, it seemed to imply a single joker would apply across all running games.

It's hard to tell from the logs but it looks like on the 10th you were 9 days behind. Even if this isn't showing the 2 jokers used that would still be enough to put you in a negative clock

Are you sure your clock was POSITIVE at 3/7/2025 11:21 PM? If not this could easily explain the issue.

I believe they apply to all pending games. I was assuming the two games in question did not overlap in time, but maybe they did. But the main point is they seem to be saying they have already used 5 in 2025.

they apply to all games and i used 3 in total now, and with the game lasting only a total of 11 days i couldnt have been overtime or something is bugged, or i don*t get how time jokers are supposed to work, cause in all other games it was fine.
