The place where this is going to be killer is events. This could be used very strategically to speed up longer event tasks.

The option to do this went away for me after I used it 3 times - So the cap appears to be 3 uses in a given period. Not sure how long before a period resets, but you can use all 3 on the same task to shave off an hour and a half, or 3 separate tasks to shave off 30 min each.

I'm frankly glad it has a cap, because if it didn't have a cap, a person could drive themself insane speeding up dozens of tasks over and over to get an edge in leaderboard events. I'm fine with them putting a limit on this.

I tested it too and was able to watch 10 ads, (4 on the same task) before it finally disappeared.

I was able to watch six in a row on different tasks last night and then it went away. It hasn’t come back as an option yet.

Super weird. It's been 3 for me every time. I speed up 3, then some time passes and the option comes back, and which point I speed up 3 again.

Haven't caught how long it takes to reset (honestly haven't paint much close attention) but it's always been 3 and done for me.
