i think the title is pretty self-explanatory!

we all know that we can play the lioden minigames once a day for a chance to obtain a prize. games are a great way to pass time, but what can be quite annoying is that not all of the rewards update at the same time

for example, trivia, baoball, shuffle, pin the prey and other games update on RO, but you can play reptile roundup twice on the same day and recieve another prize before RO because reptile roundup updates at midnight. this has caused some confusion for me, as i keep forgetting which games update when/thinking that certain games update at midnight instead of RO.

this has caused me to repeatedly play whack-a-snake before ro, thinking it updates at midnight, get a nice score, send it in, only to find out seconds later that i had already sent a score today, which is a major bummer and quite demotivating because whack-a-snake takes SO MUCH TIME

i dont this this discrepancy is necessary in any way and only causes confusion, so i see no need to keep it this way. i propose to make all games' rewards to update on RO. perhaps its better for them all to update at midnight, so people like me who have more time before RO have something to do.

if you agree, do tell me which time you would prefer! if you disagree, please explain why! i would be very curious to know

EDIT: changed the title to reflect the content better



This suggestion has 12 supports and 7 NO supports.

No support, sorry. I myself prefer waiting RO by playing RR if I have not played it before that day and we do nowadays have the text under the game itself saying if we have sent a score to it before. Maybe I would have supported this in the past when we didn't have that text to remind us, but will not now, sorry.

Support, I don't play many minigames cause I suck ass, but I don't see any problems with standardizing them all It's only a 2 hour difference, but for simplicity's sake they should all reset at the same time, whatever that may be. (Rollover makes more sense to me tbh, let stuff reset at rollover!)

@🍯 Paipa | G2 Orchid Pie, thank u for the input! i also like to wait for RO like that lol, so i totally understand
that said, not all games have these feature, from what i see. whack-a-snake and pin the pray for example only have the leaderboards, and unless you're doing big numbers you'll loose track quickly
i guess i wasnt here when that text reminder was implemented which was probably great, but i see no reason why they shouldn't just reset at the same time

It's nice for players with limited Rollovers (time based or to freeze lionesses) to be able to play some games twice for that rollover.
Though?


"Daily (almost) guarantee" prizes like Baoball (Daily Stat gain) and Trivia (Daily sb) make sense to keep daily (1 per Rollover) as they are essentially a guaranteed reward of something reliable,
The more randomized rewards and the more strategic or skill-based games are kind of a nice plus to be able to potentially submit twice per Rollover.

Personally I wouldn't want something like stat gain (Baoball) to be shifted to join all Midnight resets as that would allow an extra +1 or 2 (whatever range) per rollover (Sorry stat beasts ;~; - that's a free extra Honeycomb (1-2 GB) or even an unlucky Egg Yolk roll (up to 6 GB+) that wouldn't need to be purchased from others that would suddenly be available to the new reign), it would be nice to 'make up for' a bad rng roll with a little boost but I don't think it should be offered at the expense of a whole second Rollover,
but I wouldn't want to miss out on 2 Fire Escape submissions for 1 Rollover next time I roll my frozen Main either.
(I happened to miss a complete day of playing on my side in addition to choosing to be partially frozen this month, so it feels like a nice little 'bonus' if I decide to use it that I could 'make up for' that lost score- if I roll my main ^^ <3 )
I think I might see why it's been implemented this way, for the 'guarantee' per Rollover or the 'one more' per Lioden time-
So I don't really want all games to slide either way- it makes sense for some to stay per Rollover, but that bonus of an extra score submission for the midnight resets is also nice. <3

Obviously this is a very specific scenario, where someone might have time to squeeze in that extra game score submission and wasn't planning to roll the next day anyway, so it's a weird almost encouraging activity between midnight & rollover while not rewarding any time zone set-up, and I don't always prioritize the game in those 2 hours between midnight & rollover to take advantage of that extra submission myself, but hopefully it offers some insight even if it doesn't seem obvious there are positive use cases for staggering games' reset.



I definitely think the old games that send your score once per day via message & the new Prey escape thing that I rarely bother with should have a "You've already sent your score for today!"/ Scores reset at midnight/rollover message, though, as it's too much work to remember which is which.
Daily rollers will have their own rhythm/routine, and the midnight reset doesn't matter on the first/last day of the month for event unlocked games as those games are Monthly Event locked anyway which is midnight to midnight, it would just give someone who's not planning to roll in the next month one more score for the normal midnight resets before freezing, so it's only those who are trying to or having to (life schedule change etc) change up their routine or can't quite lock it into memory (like me- Hi xD) who will need that little reminder.
I do think the reminder should be added, but the thread is asking for all game times either or- not just adding the missing reminder

If we can submit multiple scores per day for that game for Leaderboard purposes, but can still only earn 1 reward per day (Rollover or Lioden day) the message should be changed to •You've already received a reward for today, but may continue to submit scores for Leaderboard standing!
Or something to that effect.

- not be missing entirely!

I'm not sure if a suggestion already exists for that message/reminder, but I just wanted to demonstrate why I agree with some points but still "No Support" shifting all games to either midnight or rollover.

Thank you for reading! <3

Absolutely, while I hope we do get those little reminders (alternative to this?) I felt the need to share at least my personal reasoning for my no support of this specific suggestion.
It's always interesting when a thread is nearly tied in response (8 Support / 7 No Suport) and yet has few written dissenting opinions at the time.

Hope it gets a little easier to remember! <3
