siniri Posted May 12, 2011 Share Posted May 12, 2011 I started the wheel spinning over 16 hours ago, if I recall correctly... and when I went to check on it before shutting down my computer for the night, I discovered it's still spinning! This is definitely the longest I've seen it go. So I was just wondering, is there a max? (The 16 hours is correct, not 12 -- sorry, I'm tired.)

Tank Girl Posted May 12, 2011 Share Posted May 12, 2011 It's taken a really long time for me before but I don't ever recall it spinning for that long! Maybe there was a glitch and it just carried on spinning? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rose_682 Posted May 12, 2011 Share Posted May 12, 2011 I had one spin that long once. Longer, even. But, eventually, it stopped. lol. Usually, though, it is good practice to just try playing again if it doesn't stop in like an hour or two..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
siniri Posted May 12, 2011 Author Share Posted May 12, 2011 I think it was a glitch -- I remember I restarted my browser after playing some Keyquest in the evening, and when it restarted, it said "The wheel is still spinning" (usually it just spins with no words). Perhaps TNT meant to allow you to continue a spin after a temporary disruption of internet or a browser crash (vs. it being cancelled in the past), but it doesn't actually work. Anyway, yeah, I went ahead and started a new spin today, once I could. ETA: Hmm, today's spin is going for an extra-long time, too (nearly 6 hours and counting), and it has "The wheel is still spinning" message again. Haven't lost internet or restarted my browser today. Guess it's just bad luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rose_682 Posted May 12, 2011 Share Posted May 12, 2011 The wheel is still spinning is what the little dude next to it says when you are supposedly getting close to the end of it spinning, lol. But it's not always accurate. lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
siniri Posted May 12, 2011 Author Share Posted May 12, 2011 Apparently not, since it's been at least 3 hours (nearly 9 total) and it's still spinning... I had a nice lucky streak where I was getting a Bri codestone once or twice a week a few months ago; after I mentioned it to someone, I haven't gotten anything besides a lottery ticket or a cheap item since.

Tank Girl Posted May 13, 2011 Share Posted May 13, 2011 If he's looking at his watch it means you're half way to it stopping ^_^ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
siniri Posted May 13, 2011 Author Share Posted May 13, 2011 Nah, it was glitched. I cleared my cache and was able to spin again yesterday, which means it was just glitched (didn't let the spin finish, of course). Today, the spin lasted a reasonable amount of time.

Guest Yoshinho Posted May 13, 2011 Share Posted May 13, 2011 Also if you put your computer on stand by while it is spinning, It might just freeze it as if it was still for the couple of hours you were away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paigeh Posted May 14, 2011 Share Posted May 14, 2011 It can go on for avery long time. But, maybe when your screensaver came up it paused it or something Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Yoshinho Posted May 15, 2011 Share Posted May 15, 2011 Make sure to set your power settings to maximum before spinning (if able to on Windows 7 makes it easy to do that on your laptop) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
