Looks like it's fixed in the version posted right above you.  All he did was add a simple loaded check on the player.

From what I read he's just fixing certain names, but at the same time I didn't thoroughly check everything he did.

IIRC I only did some minor changes on the UTF-8 encoding, nothing else.

But I'm struggling with the occasional resets, too. My server is almost always full (16 Players) and in the last three days about 8 people complained about their time being reset. Is it possible that MySQL + LUA is unreliable?
Another quick browse through the code does not show anything interesting.

I desperately need Utime for MySQL for my !motd and other stats delivered via a webserver and this is slowly driving me nuts.

Do you know when the players who get reset joins? Have the server been empty for a long period before they do?
I've had something like that happen where the db connection would reset to "gone away"/ time out the first time it's used. I edited Pointshops way to do it with a "wrapper" which takes some sql string, a callback to be called with returned data and a optimal tries argument to limit the number of retries.
I wouldn't mind trying getting my hands dirty since I would have made my own version anyways... Is it okay to use github rather than uploading archives here?

I don't see any connection between server usage and the occasional resets. I've used an external MySQL Server (different VHost, same Hostmachine, so latency <1ms) and moved it on the same VHost, but that didn't change a thing (why would it, if the latency difference is about 0.5ms... *scratches head*).

I'm thinking about combining SQLite and MySQL where SQLite is actually used for storing/reading the time, but the time is regularly being pushed to MySQL, too. I only have one server, so that should do it. Although I'm still heavily annoyed by the inconsistency.
