Sleep Hours during Tournaments

I just started playing more Tournaments and in that started over the weekend, my clock ended super fast. Now I did have a gap of time on the first day that I missed, however I know the clock was still accelerating for me during my sleep hours, however I noticed for another player out of Switzerland, the clock did not accelerate for that person during sleep hours. Why is that, and how do I avoid losing all of my clock hours at night during tournaments? Thanks for your help!

The sleep hours are fixed by the tournament organiser and are the same for all players, regardless of time zone. So the clock may advance while you are sleeping, but not at night for a player in the ideal zone.

If you had a different issue and the clock really did sometimes advance during the official sleep time (when the moon icon was showing), then you should report it as a bug, but I've never known that to happen.

How can we know in BGA that it is the sleeping hours for me without looking our watch ?

For others I see the moon icon. But for me is it visible ? :?:
