It's annoying as heck to have to Micro manage this thing, just make it a once a Day thing.

what the OP is saying is, in order to get a daily crystal every day, you need to be there when it resets. Otherwise the reset time moves back each day.
Its an issue, but a minor one, it certainly doesn't deserve 5 exclamation points.
Yeah that would be called daily if you claim the daily crystal then get another one 14 hours later thats not daily
That isn’t what anyone is disputing.
daily
ˈdeɪli/
adjective
1.
done, produced, or occurring every day or every weekday.
"a daily newspaper"
synonyms: occurring/done/produced every day, everyday, day-to-day, quotidian;
Daily means it happens at least once a day. It doesn’t say “it has to be done 24 hours after the previous one”. Nobodies questioning whether 24 hours is a day, you’re just being a pedant.
Making the crystal be able to be claimed once in a 24 hour period still means it’s daily, since it fits the definition of “done every day”
No one is disputing that they are technically available every 24 hours, but that is 100% dependent on being online and ready to collect the crystal at the exact same time EVERY DAY. Even if you're online, you may be working through a quest or grinding arenas delaying the collection of the next crystal by anywhere from 5 minutes to a couple hours.
What sucks is that the next 24 hr cycle doesn't start until the current crystal is collected. So if you log in an hour late, you get one every 25 hours, not one per day (aka daily). Get suck in a work training or a school activity? Sorry, it's now a 30-hr crystal. Go to bed early, the next one is then a 33hr crystal.
This is different from things like the login calendar and the alliance crystals that reset the same time every day regardless of when you claimed the previous one.
Very few people are able to run the exact same schedule every day with this game. Life happens. Because of that, no one is truly getting a "daily" crystal...
Uncollected daily crystals has 4* in it.
This is not the fight I would expend a lot of energy on, but technically speaking the daily crystal is not a daily crystal. The daily crystal is a crystal with a 24 hour minimum cool down. That means by definition no player that has ever played the game has ever been able to collect the crystal every 24 hours. The laws of physics literally prevent that from happening.
No matter how fast you are, no matter what time zone you are in, no matter what strategy you employ, you are mathematically guaranteed to reach a point where there will come a twenty four hour day where you will be unable to collect this crystal. For most players that day comes fairly quickly, but no player can avoid it in the long run.
