time jokers

[JimBut]

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.

I think you are mistaken. You'd only used two during the course of the game you mentioned - you can confirm this by looking at the logs of the long running terraforming mars game you're in. The two jokers aren't enough to account for the 9 or so days over you went

It depends on WHEN you used them. My understanding is that there is a cap. You don't get four additional days. Rather your time bank gets replenished
to four days. So if you had three days left in your time bank before using the joker you actually gain only one extra day.
Three time jokers guarantee you twelve extra day only if you activate them with a four day interval among them. You told us when you activated
two of them but not the first one, without this information is difficult to say something.

I don't think that's accurate. I haven't used Time Jokers but it doesn't make sense to have to use them while you are on vacation, it makes sense to use them before you leave for the amount of time you will be gone.

I am a fan of simply testing things instead of speculating about them, especially when the test is easy.

Although it wouldn't surprise me if something on BGA doesn't work in a way that makes sense, in this case it does. As Cile said, it would be kinda silly to have to use a joker in the middle of a holiday to get its full benefit when the whole point of it is not having to be on BGA during your holiday.

I am in a turn-based game with these settings: 1 move per day (+24h00 per turn (maximum 3 days)). I had 2 days of thinking time left and applied two jokers back-to-back and now have 10 days of thinking time.

there is for sure something bugged cause i just started playing again and on one game it was on -7 days after i took my turn with 2days remaining or so. So sometimes i guess the return to normal.

so the adding as meeplelowda has pointed out works fine, maybe on some reset it failed. I mean its a game but just * for the arena season, but thats how it is. anyhow so next time when i am off for field work trips i need to make sure no games are running when it starts or also post it to everyone in the games on to ask to be nice if any time issue arise.

p.s.: i of course dodnt get extra time for tourney, as it is supposed to, just missed i had a tourney registered for the time

*Moderator edit: please refrain from swearing on BGA, this is a family-friendly platform.
