That's perfectly fine.  The places in the list mean '24 hours ago to 48
hours ago', '48 hours ago to 72 hours ago' etc.  They do _not_ mean
'yesterday between 0 and 23:59:59 UTC'.

                                              this place

                                              now it's here.

Bascially means the ping was sent between 21:55 and 23:00 GMT 2 (or so)
days ago.
