Darius Brinn
Gallente Taggart Transdimensional Virtue of Selfishness

Let's see if I can get an explanation, because I obviously did NOT understand how the skill queue works.
Yesterday I was training Focus III > IV. It was set to complete while I was at work, so I queued Mining Barge III > IV and Astrogeology IV > V after it.
I am checking "My character" page here and it says...I'm training Focus IV > V, with 10 days remaining O_o.
As far as I remember (just picked up the game again after a break) this hasn't happened before. I mean, if I recall correctly, I could queue skills to get one level and then queue another one, not having to wait until the queued skills gets to V.
For instance, recently I queued Gallente Drone Specialization II > III, and when it finished, it did NOT start GDS III > IV.
Am I horribly mistaken and these are normal game mechanics? I thought you couldn't even queue skills you don't have requirements for. Maybe it's different for Learning skills?
It's just an 8 hour loss (until I get home), but it could happen to me again if I don't understand how did I screw myself.
Thanks in advance. http://www.geocities.com/vagrantweapons/db.jpg |

Wait until you can log in and see what has actually happened.
If it has gone wrong, petition it. The petition will take a little while to get answered (mine took a week).

The My character page and teh in Game Skill queue dont speak very often. Once the queue moves on to another skill the My character page gets screwy for a while. Dont sweat what its saysing, its most likey all ok. If it is wrong, petition it like has been mentioned above

Yes, I guess there's no other way. But it struck me as odd. I left Focus III > IV training, with around 9 hours left. Now I check "My Character" and it says I'm training Focus IV > V with 10 days left.
I don't know if it has to do with the 1.2 patch or something, but I doubt that petitioning will get me my 8 hours back. I'll try, nevertheless.
Thanks for at least confirming it's not the intended way for it to work.

This might also be it. I sure hope you're right.
Thanks everyone. http://www.geocities.com/vagrantweapons/db.jpg |

Originally by: Darius Brinn I thought you couldn't even queue skills you don't have requirements for.
You can, but only for skills that you have already injected or partially learned. So if you've already learned Focus level III and you add lvl IV to the queue (and the finishing time of that skill falls within the 24 hour limit of the queue), then you can also add lvl V by clicking the add button a second time.
Perhaps you clicked the add button twice by mistake and didn't check the result before closing the skill queue? If you're certain you double-checked the skills were set correctly before logging out and its actually learned Focus V, then yes it'd be worth a petition.

Ouch. Now that killed my hope.
My skill queue was just three skills after I set it up and logged off (Focus to IV, Mining Barge to IV, Astrogeology to V), and I am sure I did NOT see Focus to IV followed by Focus to V.
This said, who knows? Maybe I made a mistake.
Whether I did it or not, it won't happen again.
Thanks. http://www.geocities.com/vagrantweapons/db.jpg |

You couldn't have seen focus V in there because it would have filled up the queue. That said, it could have been in the previous queue and you forgot to apply/confirm the new one.

Not yet. Three hours until I get home.

This COULD be, too. I am not sure whether I confirmed the changes to the queue or not. But I never queued Focus V in the first place, before or after anything.
I NEVER, EVER saw Focus V queued. Not before confirming the changes, not after (if I did it). I did NOT put Focus IV > V intentionally, and I remember distinctively NOT seeing it up there.
Well, just in case anybody is curious, I will see what's cooking and post it once I get home and log in.
In the worst case it's just 8 hours, more or less.
I'll just imagine I trained "Be ****ing careful with your queue, Darius, you fool!" to V in those 8 hours. http://www.geocities.com/vagrantweapons/db.jpg |

It was indeed a problem between the game and this web.
I had set it up properly, Focus V has not been training (despite what the "My Character" menu said), and instead I'm 8 minutes away from having Mining Barge III > IV completed.
Thanks for your comments. http://www.geocities.com/vagrantweapons/db.jpg |

The "My Character" sheet does not work properly. Pay no attention to what it is telling you.
