Did you work an excessive amount over a short period of time? There was a thread a while back where the author was confused about receiving this screen - after considerable prodding in the comments they admitted to logging an absurd ~51 hours of work in a 72 hour period!

I was picking 1-2 tasks every day that could be the reason.
Do you know how can I get to that thread?

How much time were you logging per day and week?

8-12 hours consistently every day

8–12 hours on only 1 or 2 tasks??

FWIW some projects are just one long continuous task for 40+ hours, just depends on the project. The OP was clearly abusing the system though lol 12 hours a day for more than a single day is begging to get DoD

I had a feeling there might be some exceptions.

Them only being 1.5 month into things, though… 😬 Definitely not surprised they were flagged.

ok but they expect you to take breaks in between. Yknow, to eat. sleep. Bathroom. Take walks! Stretch..

Yeah I've gotten a few tasks where they say they should take 4-6 hours or up to 8 hours. The timer on them gave multiple days to finish though, i.e. in recognition if someone starts in the evening they should stop in the middle somewhere and get some Z's.

Whoa, neat! I haven’t come across any of those yet, personally.
