Scheduled quest votes timing out too quickly

I'm not sure if anyone else has experienced this, but my quests' scheduled votes seem to be automatically closing out far quicker than they should, and always at odd times like 1 or 2 AM. Is this a bug, or merely user error?
 
Naively, that sounds to me like a UI bug relating to time zones. If so, that should be something you can check. I would guess that the interface is using UTC, and the UTC version of the time you choose corresponds to the "weird time" in your time zone. Otherwise, also check your time zone settings.

The thing is that I don't schedule a specific time. I've been using the "close the vote manually" option, but it auto closes weirdly early anyhow.
 
Over the past several days a lot of threads have had 'scheduled' tallies all trigger posts at the same time every day, including some threads that have been inactive for weeks/months and from users who haven't been online in several days prior to the first occurrence on Monday Oct 27th.

1:36 AM PDT (UTC-7) is when I see it triggering every night.
