Every 3-4 years the tick counter in the game reaches its limit and we enter a zone of negative time.

It happened today, a couple of weeks earlier than expected.

I have run the fix for the next 3-4 years but still keep an eye out for anything that looks unusual.

For example, there are 8 players online today for whom the website is showing them as being online for negative time today.

I suspect that once they log back in again they will reset (hopefully).

It shows that the automated monster lotto is open for 150k minutes.

Edit: Better make that 1.5mil minutes.
