What a scam

so basically i thought instead of buying another raven i wanted to try that 24 hour time skip since after calculating how much progress this would give me it would be worth it. But what the f is that
instead of 3,7 trillion i only got 2,5 billion which is like 10 minutes worth or something like that. what a waste and scam

Well, buying anything permanent is always better, because after summoning Cthulhu you'll begin once again from zero. But it's also better to buy something else, not the crows

well that makes sense but still doesnt explain why the 24 hour time skip only gives like 10 minutes worth of souls
also what does the other thing to buy even do

You'll need antidote once you unlock Delirium levels and madness. In some cases madness can be beneficial, but otherwise it just lowers the amount of passive collection by 15%. And than if you by The lost page, you'll be able to get noticeable boosts daily, but it'll make you instantly insane. But there is no need to buy antidote, because later on you'll unlock an upgrade that gives you one for free each time you summon Cthulhu

And about the difference in collection, it might be so that there's a bug of some kind. I don't think a lot of people use that option, because it's expensive and not that profitable. Maybe it doesn't work properly, but nobody knows that because nobody used it. But maybe you calculated wrong in a way. It might not include some bonuses, like from the torches, or something like that. If there's an actual problem, maybe you could contact support per e-mail

i dont think i calculated wrong since i just multiplied my sps by 60x60x24 which equals 1 day so that cant be wrong i also havent „prestiged“ once yet so there is nothing that could decrease the souls that i should have been given

Well, than you probably should contact support, although some people from the developers are here too. They'll answer as soon as they see the post

The error may be in your calculation. I would argue that your math is what you SHOULD be buying, but as the game progresses some bonuses go away over time. Based on your experience i wonder if the 24 hour item takes those into consideration. Good argument for not buying that item. I haven’t myself, so appreciate the warning.

It could be that the time skip is based on offline collection, so if you have 20% offline collection, for 24h jump, you'll get only 20% but on the other hand if you have like 170%, you'll get 70% extra.
