So i logged on a few min ago and first thing i checked was to see if daily event had reset yet, apparently it has 19hrs 59min left and have done it twice,(thats what it said after first check) err no I haven't, has game given me a free day or is something screwy going on. This another "feature"?
Its like the game completed the daily when i logged on

    i don't think so as the character I logged in on first was only made this year and first time at winter event for it was yesterday, could be the game gave me credit for yesterday and put and inventory item that i didn't notice, which then applied today when I logged on today., Guess I will see what happens tomorrow.

    I might have figured it out, earlier on I did Krampy and got a small popup on screen saying Gold daily reward, there is nothing in my inventory and am sure got the same yesterday, if same thing happens tomorrow then that might be it.

    I can pass this up the chain if you'd like.
    While a bit convenient, wouldn't be WAI and, well... can cause major confusion as we see here.

    The progress is on a 20 hour cooldown. So having an item appear and then get spent after 20 hours on its own... if that is what is happening... I'm not sure that is working properly.

    It is not an exaggeration to say that STO is one of the buggiest games I've ever played.

    Clearly you haven't been playing Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous.

    Yeah check your inventory... I've seen that hourglass icon show up there as an inventory item.

    Yeah, I did have a look just to make sure, can't see anything with that icon, will see what happens tomorrow as today was ok, might have just been some one off glitch.

    Has anyone else got this popup on krampy, I have done snowball fight, both races, ice fishing and ginger bread village and krampy was the only one to popup that message.

    If it does act weird definitely let us know

    I found this for your problem:

    @westmetals
    If you play through Steam, you can use Steam's screenshot key as well. Although I would recommend rebinding it as F12 (the default if I remember correctly) also has in game functionality involving the UI. I got my Steam screenshot key bound to Insert as, I know of no games that uses that key.

    And I will shoot this up the chain again. I had already notified Kael and the other mods that I was keeping an eye on this, hence darkblade's appearance. But now... yea... shooting it up the chain. That is WEIRD.

    ideally if you guys can get some video of this happening that would be great, otherwise anything to demonstrate this where we can see it could be helpful.

    so far it has not happened again for me, I logged in today and timer had reset ok, I did fastest game on ice for the daily, I opened my inventory before accepting the reward and a icon with the hourglass like in my screen shot did appear for a split second then vanished.
    I can take video of end of krampy if that will be any use.
    @westmetals which event did you do for daily?

    I got one of the hourglass-icon-as-inventory-items again today. My timer runs out in 5 hours from this post... will let you know if it gets auto used after that.

    Typing /screenshot into chat will work too, besides the OS keys the other posters mentioned.

    Sounds to me like the token is getting spent the second the 20 hour cooldown ends, thus giving progress and starting the cooldown again.

    I haven't experienced this yet myself, but then again I've only been doing the old Ice Race that you can start any time rather than waiting for a specific event to come up.

    I'd like to propose an experiment if anyone is willing to help.
    After getting a daily progress like normal from their preferred event, can someone run Fastest Game on Ice to see if another token is generated?

    Reason for suggesting Fastest Game on Ice is because unlike the other events that are on a schedule, Fastest Game on Ice is a quest you pick up ANY time. Can easily test, and is pretty much a controlled variable. Hell... might even see if a second Fastest Game on Ice also generates a token like was mentioned above.

    I have gotten the GOLD! popup several times when I shouldn't have because the daily event was already on cooldown, but so far no odd icon in inventory or other weird behavior except for the Breen offering Fastest Game on Ice twice in a row instead of going to timer that first time (it did not generate that thing in inventory though).
