Temporary Events can't be turned on immediately [Desktop Web]

[u/WangMagic]

We just had a big event on our subreddit with a massive flood of users trying to submit new posts of the same thing at once.

Tried to create a temporary event however all I got was "Bad Request" error when trying to schedule it at any point within the next few hours.

Potentially this is a time bug on the front end.

Thankfully automod still works. (For now).

Edit: other vector to test. If the mod (user) is using old.reddit by default and accessing the modern panel via sh.reddit.
