HT while it's been set like that ever since the perk system was introduced, I can't help but wonder if 80% of the folks flying actually know about that rule.
Maybe a popup confirmation box about changing countries that clearly states they won't get perks for any resets that happen in the next 12hours would alleviate it somewhat.
