If your TTing set it at 11:55pm. Then you can jump back and forth 2 days in that 2 hour seeker star period if you need to gift. Careful to watch your am and pm though. This is what I've been doing, and it has worked very well for me. My favorite is to load up a Seeker's Star, Magic Folio, Piggy Bank, and if needed, SOV. I used to focus only on the Seeker's Star, but now I also work on leveling up so the Magic Folio is a big help there. I don't have as many winding keys as I'd like so I don't make any magic ingots, but that's okay for now.

Last night, I managed to play a marathon session without having to use one of my SOVs. I did it by allowing my energy to continue to increase more and more until I was close to 3,000 energy. Then I ran that into the ground. I was close to leveling up again and getting another SOV so I didn't want to stop quite yet. So I used some of my food, banished monsters, and hired jokers to lower the energy needed to make it over the top on both goals. Then I ran that energy into the ground. When it was all gone, I finally let the talismans go and went back to real time.

From there, I started the whole process again by TTing forward to refill my energy and then back to real time. And now I'm allowing the energy to pile up again. It would seem the TY gifts only give a meager amount of energy, but when it's allowed to accumulate, it can become really helpful. Until my energy is high enough, I may use an SOV to marathon play again, saving the energy I have until it's high enough to carry me through another marathon play session without needing to use up a SOV.
