Walmart's Rollin' Back the Prices, Could BL be Rollin' Back the Date? MissNyx
Don't get your panties in a bunch just yet. The title is strictly just an invision, a simple prediction of what is to come. Believe me, I am no psychic, so please use the word "prediction" lightly.

A rollback, or in layman's terms, when something happens in game that results to the game itself being rewound to a certain date and time. A rollback usually happens during a time of extreme exploited money which, in turn, gave players an unfair advantage to succeeding in the game.

However, unlike those eight times prior, a possible upcoming rollback may not be due to the prior reasons.

The culprit? The revised Daylight Saving's time.

Many have speculated that due to the revised Daylight Saving's time, the two servers that are used for Bootleggers are conflicting with each other.

"If the servers are going haywire because of Daylight Savings time, at least that means they recognize the new 3 week change," said Help Desk Operator MelB after bringing up the theory in the Game Forum at approximately 10:30pm.

Exactly how will that constitute a rollback? Due to the two servers conflicting each other, many people are having trouble doing their scheduled crimes, grand theft autos (by getting the notice that they clicked to fast even if they wait more than 2 minutes) and organized crimes (some even stating their organized crime timer jumped an hour).

With this happening to some and not to others, perhaps a rollback is in store for the game; while the players without a problem are continuing their organized crimes, their GTA's and Crimes, others are holding on, depending on a server that doesn't seem to be giving way.
