problem with upper answering limit?

well i got to level 2 yesterday evening...so i should be able to answer 40 questions a day....and today morning when i logged in and wanted to answer...it said that i had reached my upper limit for the day

does it have something to do with the time zone im in or something?

Update:

oh and i forgot to add...yesterday just before reaching level 2 i got this upper limit...then after i reached level 2...i could answer some questions...and i only answered about 4-5 questions yesterday....so i should still have some 15 questions that i can answer

    You're right, it's all about time zones. I had the same problem but I have worked it out now. I'm guessing by your username that you are in India? I am in Australia and from my time zone each new day begins at 7pm. 7pm Australian time is 1.30pm Indian time so after you have reached your daily limit you will have to wait until 1.30pm to answer more.

    I beleive it runs 24 hours from the questions you answered.. so the oldest question you have answered right now has not rolled over for 24 hrs.

    It happened to me. I think it's just a glitch. I waited a few hours and was able to answer again.

    Yes, it resets 12.00 A.M. EST. So you can go by that time zone.
