News Flash: New Exploit Identified!

Apparently if you happen to live in the Pacific Time Zone, you have a tactical advantage on enemies living further east. Please let Nick know, so he can close this loophole. 'Nuf said. 😂

Is this an issue only in North America or is Europe also at a disadvantage? Is Europe to the east or west of California? And does it matter if one is in the north or the south?
In addition, keep in mind the Europeans are adjusting their clocks tonight for daylight savings. How will this affect Australian players and their Peruvian counterparts?

This is outrageous. Nick, you need to stop West coast players attacking when we sleep, there is no defense against it.

Not only a time zone glitch but more importantly is the equator. That's right those Aussies get to play upside down! 👀

That's almost as big an exploit as teams using range. Wow.

Yup. Or the GD to trashtalk other players.

Yeah, but what about those furthest east, who are actually attacking from tomorrow?
How the hell can we defend attacks from the future?!?!?

And those so far west that they're being attacked in yesterday.. This whole time stream is messed up by those evil villains who exploit the wormholes!

Hehe. Ok....who actually said?

If I'm capping turf from yesterday, wouldn't that eliminate the need for me to travel back in time to cap turf in the first place? Wow! A tw paradox.

If Im in Michigan and I go to California, does this mean I have to wait 3 hours less to cap someone?

If I build a turf right now in Europe because I am in the US I don't have to wait the full 24 to cap right? And technically I build a turf Sat at 8:00 am in a place where it is Sunday at 8:00 I can cap right away? True? See I do know the rules. Thanks Trout. 👍

This. But as parts of Europe are losing an hour tonight you need only wait 23 hrs.

I capped someone a bit ago and technically it was tomorrow in that part of the world 😳
Hopefully I don't get into trouble.

Was the player in the other part lf the world or only the turf? If the player, one might reason that the cap was yesterday's news, as it didn't happen at the time but from a timezone a few hours behind. This begs the question if the income from the turf that was earned during the hours it didn't exist should be returned or not.
If the player was in the same timezone as you and the capped turf was in tomorrow you might actually owe that player money for lost income during the hours the turf seemingly existed but didn't.
Add to this the fact that the earth is rotating at a mind boggling speed AND the fact that you might have had a beer or two tonight and you'll quickly come to the realisation that there are plenty of reasons as to why you might be held responsible for your actions.
