I just finished my round of Pot of Gold for today, and got this message: "You took 1546410046 seconds to complete this quiz." This is obviously impossible, as it equates to something like five years.

49 years by my calculations. But even the posted number, 32,767, translates to something like nine hours plus, which is obviously impossible since the day is only two hours old.

Congratulations, you started this game on Jan 1, 1970 smile

Looks like it couldn't read the start time and it returned a 0. From the time of your post, this may have to do with the (probably unplanned) server restart that happened around that time. Sorry.

I thought it was just me. POG says I've already played today, but I haven't.

Reports of this on the other side too - looks like it's not working.

Hmmm appears to have failed upon trying to create new question sets. Investigating...

Terry, yesterday's results are not showing up. It's as though they didn't exist.

And the final scores from last week are only showing one day's play.

"Yesterday" isn't a live link on the homepage. If you click on any of (Ranks - Top 200 - My Team) there's nothing showing.

Hmm guess that data was lost in the double-reset. Hopefully it's not that big of a deal? I don't think any awards or anything are based on it?

The only badge which may be affected are the highest weekly points not previously won. Looks like there were two awards given after you made the reset.
