# Checking the timer

## How it work

If the timer is too low your prediction may not confirm in time, so check there's still plenty of time left before you make a prediction, and don’t forget to take into account about the processing time of the network, because even if you hit confirm button but if the transaction is not success in time, you still not able to join that round. The fund will go back to your wallet since the transaction is rejected (30 seconds should be plenty, but give yourself more time if you're following along with this guide).
