  1. Is "Wins At Your Back" timezone-dependent?


    Hi,

    I'm running Windows 8.1 Version 6.3 (Build 9600), Microsoft Minesweeper version 2.2.1401.2303.

    March is the first full month that I've been running a 2.1/2.2 version of Minesweeper, and "Wins At Your Back" is the only achivement I hadn't yet won. I've been logging on just after midnight EST (which would be 9PM the day before in PST, in case this
    has anything to do with this achievement), playing just one board, then playing the other two boards either before going to work at 5AM EST, or after work some time after 3PM EST.

    Today is the last day of the month, I played one board just after midnight, and the achievement didn't unlock. I came home around 3PM, restarted Minesweeper, and the achievement still didn't unlock, even though I had won a board on the 31st in my timezone.

    I then played the second of the three boards around 3PM EST (noontime PST), won it, and "Wins At Your Back" unlocked immediately.

    I wasn't sure if time zone factored into this or not, but figured I'd post my observations. If it did factor in, I'm glad I took the precaution of scattering my wins across each of the 31 days I played, or else I'd be trying again in April. Is "Wins At Your Back" timezone-dependent? :)

    ...and, yeah, I'm glad that I now have 20/20 achievements Is "Wins At Your Back" timezone-dependent? :D

    :)

    Microsoft minesweeper "wins at your back" achievement glitched on Win 10

    I've tried this several months straight, only completing 1 a day, not going back to previous days, trying time jumping day to day from a new month, nothing seems to work to pop this achievement. Is there any work around to complete this. Currently i cannot
    finish 100% this game due to this glitch. This is the second Arkadium game to be a glitched as badly, Microsoft should really consider getting a INTERNAL studio to do any future entries in the casual series. I Miss when you employed Carbonated Games on
    tasks like this.

    Congrats on getting all the achievements, that's not an easy task!

    As to the time zones, it'll be based on our server time, which I believe is PST.

    It depends on your timezone and what time it releases in your timezone.

    OK, the change timezone to UTC-4, start game, change timezone back worked straight away. Bit of a crazy bug. i'm in NZ (GMT+12) and on Win 8.1 preview.

    It depends on your timezone but also from the fact that they start every Tuesday
