Actually, looking more carefully, beeminder is calculating accurately for an average of 25 minutes per ping.

Tagtime however got enthusiastic last night - while it pinged me normally for most of the night, it pinged eight times in the hour between 4 and 5 AM.

Beeminder then (reasonably) put me down for an extra hour of sleep that I didn't actually get.

Them's the breaks when dealing with randomised polling!
