The big present had no timer and the timer in the LW zone was counting UP instead of down.
just made the thread with pictures a bit ago:

We eventually left but who knows..that area might still be there with the timer still counting up until the server resets O.o
It's possible, I suppose, that the timer-counting-up zone is the same one we loaded into. I didn't notice specifically whether the seconds were ticking up or down. While I know that the 2nd time we went in it was higher than the 1st time, they could just be two different instances.
But if it was the same instance, then that would explain why we kept getting kicked out -- perhaps it had crossed its weird threshold whereon it should be kicking us out, and so even though the timer was above 0, since it had set its bit, it didn't care anymore.
