I can't hunt some animals but i don't understand. It's been 8 hours, it's always allowed after this time's passed, i know cos i hunt those bitehappy bears and boars every day.

I meant 8 gamehours. All right, after 4 tries it was allowed but late, this is odd! I hit "show all" to see the minutes from the past days;

1765:3:28 hunted
1766:3:35 hunted
1767:3:35 hunted
1768:4:00 hunted
1769:4:02 not allowed
1769:4:03 not allowed
1769:4:07 not allowed
1769:4:12 hunted

Thank you very much, that's the issue. If this is interfering with the protocol used for hitting people my suggestion (*) would mean quite a change. This wait 8 hours rule should apply to the hours only so people can log in every day at their preferred time and not be bothered by this restriction. So when you shoot or hit at 3:35 you can try again the next day from 3:00 but never before that time.
What's with this minute 12? Seems rather arbitrary to me.
More freedom, ease of play, would be much better, well i think.

(*) This is roughly the same suggestion as Okud made.

Minute 12 is as much arbitrary as minute 0 is.

But far less confusing. There are twelve minutes you are not allowed to attack although it has been eight Cantr hours since your last attack.

Indeed it is.

No, not extacly eight C-hours. The shortest period is 7 C-hours and 12 C-minutes, the longest is 8 C-hours and 12 C-minutes. As you see there's 67% chance that you'll be able to hit sooner than 8 C-hours, though when hunting regularly it is compensed.

You don't have to quote the person before you. This is a threaded forum. ;)

As if i didn't realize that, you want to give this more thought.
Because the one number that has an advantage here is the zero cos the hournumber before it stays the same for one cantrhour long. Players will get this, easy to explain and to remember, more ease of play.
