Research direction

Start by reading the Game Mechanics documentation linked in the issue, especially clause 6 of Gameplay, then trace how the one-minute limit is applied in a battle created with another user. Reproduce the issue using the age_to_days task and verify that the game continues past the limit until a winner is determined.
