Somehow I screwd up or got screwed, I was doing cube last night and logged out halfway though. Logged back on today and finished using yesterdays puzzle cube, then re-entered with todays duty badge, got today's cube, and beat it.

Room 50: No reward. Quest Box is gray.

How can I fix this? Should I have just known better? Can i wait until reset to at least claim the reward, but then have no cube for that day?

    You can only claim the cube reward once per day. (COF Letters that allow multiple cubes a day being an exception of course.)

    Basically if you hang out in room 50 until tommorrow you can claim the reward then.

    had a problem where I couldn't obtain my reward in room50 due to lack of inventory space. If the quest box is completely grayed out, that something I haven't seen.

    -invitation key
    -chest of coins
    -30-something golden scriptures
    -30-something luminostones
    -page of fate
    -gift box (for mirage/badge of dex)

    A few quests in the cube can only be taken once per day and are counted separate from eachother.

    1) Getting a duty badge
    2) Chip quest in room 15
    3) Chip quest in room 22
    4) Chip quest in room 31
    5) Chip quest in room 42
    6) Reward in Room 50

    If you got any of these separate quests on a day you have to wait till after reset to take the quest again.

    This is different than say Crazy stone which you can start one day and finish another. Crazy stone is a single quest that can span for a day while the cube is a series of like 50 quests which each complete in a few minutes.

    This is accurate; the cube reward quest resets exactly 24 hours after the last time you completed it.

    Mmmm this is not true.
    It resets at the same time as Crazy Stone (Midnight server time).
    Many times I have completed one cube run right before reset and start and complete a second cube run right after reset (well within 24 hours after I complete it).

    same here, completed cube at 11pm then around 1:30 AM again. That's a 2 hrs span, not 24. And got 10 chips in each of those runs.

    I did cube using yesterdays duty badge at 2 am. I did cube again today using todays duty badge at 9 am.

    I got exp from both. It's not 24 hours between it.

    Badges don't matter as I have like 70 badges in my inventory. Im not sure what time zone you are in but you must have done one before reset server time and the other after reset.

    Shouldn't be possible :S

    The only way to finish cube twice between resets is with the cube directorate letter as far as I know. I have had to wait for a reset before as Nigrosity is doing now.
