I have had some strange behavior, sometimes it changed the current quests; others, added time like it will be finished in 32 hrs or so, some others both and normally it stays the same, but why the change just sometimes? Am I doing something wrong?

I haven't been in the game for sometime, i came back like two weeks ago and maybe they changed something and I'm not aware. Yes, time traveling can result in penalties--my longest was something like 440 hours, which is over 2 weeks. Time of penalty is equal to the number of hours you traveled when you trip the penalty, so I very quickly learned to never travel more than one day at a time.

Some things that result in penalties: interruption in internet while traveling, either due to an outage in your service or turning off your phone while in the past (did this without thinking TWICE when I went to movies and turned off my phone when I'd been sending gifts before I left); traveling again before the game has fully loaded; traveling around midnight your time (game can't seem to handle the combination of real change to new day and artificial day change); traveling forward in time from the current day.

You'll know you're in trouble when a new set of quests shows up early. As long as you don't travel backwards more than one day, the worst that will happen is that you sit out a single day. And if you finish your original set of quests before you TT, you won't lose any quests--you'll just get tomorrow's quests today and none tomorrow.

If any of this needs clarification, just ask. Lots of us here have had to deal with TT penalties.
