Repeat After not quite right..?

elynnwq says:
See my public list "Ztest" at http://www.rememberthemilk.com/home/elynnwq

I set up 3 test items and marked them all complete at the same day/time (10/27 10PM EST, US)

Test 1: If the item was completed on 10/27 (10PM EST), and repeats "after 1 day", shouldn't the new due date be 10/28, not 10/29?

Test 2: If the item was completed on 10/27 (10PM EST), and repeats "after 2 days", shouldn't the new due date be 10/29, not 10/30?

Test 3: If the item was completed on 10/27 (10PM EST), and repeats "after 3 days", it is correct to have a new due date of 10/30 (but it is the same due date as with repeat after 2 days??)

I've been using your site for a couple days and really like it :)
This just seems like some weird little glitch, so thought I'd ask about it/point it out.

The same here...

If I have a task set to repeat "after a day" and I mark it complete some time after 5PM MST (rough estimate), then it appears due two days after, rather than the next day

Hmm, I haven't seen this happen before.

I'll try replicate this so we can fix.

Thanks for the report!

So for now I am just postponing every time I complete a task... Is there anything I can do besides that?

I'll post when it's fixed -- this seems to only be affecting some people, depending on the timezone. Sorry for the inconvenience!
