A bug I've personally only encountered once. During our CoG vs IW raid, there was a few minutes left on the raid. I was refreshing it, to see if we may (hopefully) get a joiner on our side, as we were only 1-2k power under IW.

Godfather became active again, with 1 minute left on the timer. As I refreshed it the 2nd time after seeing him join, the timer reset to 23:59. After a few more refreshes, I left the page, thinking an awesome bug had just happened (smiley)

But the raid started by itself.

OUTGOING RAIDS
NAME STATE TIME LEFT
Lilith 11 23 hr(s), 57 min(s)
bindra, *JT*, Joker, Young Mula Baby, Lord Insidious, Remere22, Loki, Enterprise, Vega, Sensei Lu Chao, Alba


Normally a 6 hour raid, after letting it time out, I was able to recreate the bug once again. This time I have here noted the time it lasted, 3 extra minutes. Very misleading for players.

Interesting. I can fix this to say "Preparing to start" once it goes over its time.

I tried to make the code more efficient by only calling it in 5 minute intervals. This means that there will be times when it takes a couple of minutes more than it expected. It's just the fact that it lies that is confusing. The extra couple of minutes won't do too much harm.

I believe that I've fixed it, insofar as I've stopped it going back to 23hrs, 59mins. It will now stop at 0 min(s).

It's not the best fix in the world, but it'll do for now (smiley)
