Didn't see a thread on this issue so I'm starting here. There seems to be a glitch in the timer of the club. I opened up my club this morning and there was 18hrs to go. I filled some orders, closed down to check some other things and about 10 minutes later I only had 2 1/2 hrs left to complete. Can this be fixed please?

Mine too. I finished constructing the club overnight and when I opened it this morning it was for the very first time. It said I had 17+ hours to finish. Half an hour later I checked back and it said I had 5+ hours to finish. I want my 12 hours back!!

Same thing happened to me... I purposely did not tap my box until last evening so that the twelve hours timer could work over night and I would have more time during the day to fill the orders...
So when I opened the box this morning I had a 17+ hours timer and was pleasantly surprised that the recipes I had cooked last night (after starting the box with its 12 hours timer) seem to have counted... Then when I returned I few minutes later to check what else I had to bake the order had expired!!! And I now have a waiting period of several hours before I even get the new order :mad::mad:

Edit: had to leave before the waiting period was over and couldn't play for several hours... When I got back I opened the box and the timer started at 17 h 59 min... Had been worried that it would start counting once the waiting period was over... so that's at least something

I'm curious if this happens all the time, or is it only a one time thing? What I mean is, every time the timer restarts and you close out the game for a little bit will the time jump down a lot of time or is this something that only happens when you open the club for the first time?

I have completed around 3 Specials and I have not had the time change.

I hope the timer doesn't keep doing this every time I close my game, I won't be happy if it does

Mine has not (so far!)
If it does, please let me know.

Sorry to hear about this everyone! Is there any additional information you can provide? Specific steps or actions performed just before this issue occurs?

My club finishing building at 7:15 am pacific time and I technically didn't open it until around 8am. I had to do 6 sugar cookies, 3 cobblers, 3 tiramisu, 3 mocha frappes, 3 turtle caps, and 2 apple dumplings. I started making things, and while I was waiting for things to finish which had 17+ hrs to go, I closed my game for about 10 mins, when I came back 10 mins later my timer had only about 2 1/2hrs left before expiring. I was only able to finish the cookies, tiramisu, and cobblers.

This happened to me on my level 27 account.

I finally got the blueprint I needed, opened the Secret Bakery thing. Rather than wait twelve hours for it to 'build' I sped with gems. Filled several order items, put some things on to cook, exited and closed game. Came back about half an hour later, and it was gone. Said I had 3 hours and 42 minutes until my 'next' order would be ready. No rhyme or reason. And no keys, so it didn't 'complete' the order it just 'refreshed' it.

Wondering if this is only happening on lower level accounts, or something???

Something is definitely going wonky with the clock... for some of us anyways. :-(

...Does seem that everyone reporting this had it happen with their first order after opening (and presumably within the last 24 hours.). Has anybody had it happen again? Or was your next order okay?

Guess we will have to wait and see. Good luck everyone!!!

I think this only happens the first time we built it but works fine for subsequent orders. Do you remember if it happens for your subsequent orders?

I'm 20 minutes into my second order and the clock seems to be holding even if I exit the game.
Only need another 30 minutes to complete all the items, so will report back then.

Yup. No problem with second order. This is a relief!

Great to hear that your subsequent orders are fine! Happy baking.

my problem with the SBC's timer is that it resets back to 18 hours after the timer starts ticking down after a few hours. i will check the time and it will say 15 hrs left or 13 hours left, then after a while it will start back to 18 hours. its nice when you need more time cooking stuff but it gets annoying when you are trying to run down the clock because i cant make everything thats required yet.

Can you reinstall your game and see if the timer works better?
