zub, don't know not been around that long. All I can say is that when I list an auction for 12h at 02h00 when there is weekly reset at 03h00-11h00 am, and I check back late afternoon, the auction expired. Whereas I should still be up according to your logic.

On top of that would 've been extremely lucky with the bids I place that none is overbidding me when the servers are back up, for months. So yeah I do believe it just keeps counting during downtime.
