I'm in two leagues that are supposed to sim hourly and right now are both saying the next sim is at 6PM, 4 hours away.

Problems:
1. Its 1PM now, 6PM is 5 hours away not 4.
2. Why is the next sim at 6PM and not 2PM?

Hi, DSB -

What leagues are having the problem?

I've seen this consistently across all the leagues that I am in. It appears to be a rounding problem. If the next sim happens at 6pm and it is 1:01pm currently the game will report the next sim as being 4 hours away. It appears to calculate the difference, get 4:59 and then only report the hours. The same thing happens with minutes when it gets down to that level. If it is 45 minutes, 59 seconds to the next sim, it will report it as being 45 minutes away.

James,
NYBL is one of the leagues,
and Happy Destiny League is the other.

Good point on the rounding thing.

The next sim will take place at 2pm EST.

If you get this problem again, there is a commissioner option to adjust the sim times.

Go to the League Information and Options page. The commissioner will see a button labeled "Modify Sim Time" in the list of options.

You can adjust the time of the next sim to your preferred time.

Sorry for the trouble. Ian is trying to find out why this happened. It seems the simulator does not like Mondays...
