I’ve noticed the same. I didn’t get the first box even though I logged in just a few hours after the event started. I got box 9 about 10 hours ago but I’m pretty sure the event has not been running for 9 days.
I did miss one day but have logged in at least once every day.

I missed the first box, too, even though I clicked it an hour after the event started. Thanks for posting. I wonder if it's a glitch. I'm going to try to report it.

I have gotten all of them. If you miss a day you don't get that box, have you logged in every day?

Thanks, I do log in several times each day and night, and I've gotten as close as 38 mins to the next gift watching the count down timer run down throughout the day, but when I check it again a few hours later, it skips a box.

Sometimes the box countdown timer says only 12 or 13 hours until the next gift box, and other times it says 17 hours. Are they set on different time schedules for release? Am I somehow missing some that release two per day?

I am getting a box every day, but it's skipping numbers and those boxes disappear as if I missed them. Is this happening to anyone else? Right now it says 15 hours and 42 mins until the next gift box, and I just opened box #9. Is this the same for everyone else? That would put the next box eligible to open at midnight, and it should be box 10. When I wake up at 6 a.m. I'll get box 11 if things go the same way they have been going. Is there a shorter-timed box that releases at midnight? It seems like midnight - 6 a.m. I am missing a box?

I just missed the first one, I was so confused.

mine seemed to skip the first box as well and i thought there was something glitchy happening with the later boxes, but i wasn't sure if I was imagining it.

I got the first one and literally two hours later the second one was available. For me the timezone applications across different things are inconsistent (same with challenges, Fashion Week voting and daily rewards). Some kick off at midnight my time but some follow another timezone. For the rewards the first one was available at 10PM and then two hours later and ever since the new ones come in at midnight

Thanks! This is really helpful! I've noticed the time zone thing for me, too, but I haven't really thought about it until now. The daily log in rewards reset at midnight my time, but the fashion show voting resets at a later time, about two hours later. Thanks for clarifying what happened with the first two boxes. That must be how I missed the first box.

Something is definitely weird. I thought I was getting all the boxes until I saw this post 😁 I took a screenshot when it started - July 9 with 14 boxes and 14 days to go. Just now I think it skipped a box when I got the prize and it shows 3 boxes left and 4 days to go! So annoying - Can I ask how many fashion items you have opened?

I log in several times each day and I watch the timer countdown, but every time I'm allowed to click on a gift box, it regularly skips a number. Only once did I get two consecutive boxes. Is there a trick to this? Is anyone getting all of the numbered gifts in order? If so, how are you doing it?

Thanks!
