Why does this always happen?

I think you could get that dilemma. You would get dilemma prize and be at 1 AM so you could recall.

The problem, I think, is that it often goes straight into the next log entry, so you don’t have an opportunity to recall right after the dilemma.

Could be wrong, but I know hazards often have that issue.

So, ummm, why not recall at 30+?

He didn't run out. He's frustrated that he had to recall seconds before the 8hr dilemma.

Dilemmas are overrated, as milestones are historically perceived anyway. Although you may get the chance at a good one, there are many 30-chroniton-and-useless-2*-crew resolutions out there. The way I see it, 7hr 59min 29sec missions are just as good as 7hr 30min missions. The good rewards usually come when the crew finds some "supply box" or something of the sort. Even then, a lot of the time you get 600 credits, for all the good that does.

Even if you did make it to the 8 hr mark, you'd just have to recall right after anyway. No chance at the better rewards at 8+ hours.

If it makes you feel better that next dilemma was probably just for 30 chrons, 30 honor, and a green crewmember. How much dilithium did u use to get to that point in voyage with those stats?

There are no better rewards at 8+ hours. I believe once you hit 6+ you're in the best reward tier. The OP did lose 30 chrons and effectively 80 honor by just missing. Even if that's lousy from a dilemma perspective, it's still a lot better than what you're likely to get at the next random drop.

I'll usually refresh in situations like that since it gives you an opportunity for 2 dilemma's. At worst that's 50 Chrons and 160 honour. Plus another two hours of 4* farming.

I failed with 1 min left yesterday. I had an unusually good amount of chrons (~600) for just under 8 hours plus 2x 4*'s (had them).

Finished with 5x 4*'s (incl. Mirror Archer #4) and 933 Chrons after 10h10m. The 5th Dilemma was a Super Rare Dilemma. The worst part of this Voyage was the 3rd Dilemma was also super rare but gave me worthless 5* Replicator Rations instead of a 4* Crew.
