Never mind. I found the solution. if anyone else has this problem,(time check continually fails and you're not having the option to alighn with factions) you need to leave realm grinder and go to a different page on kongregate, then come back. Other websites do not help, and neither does refreshing, at least for my issue.
Game keeps glitching for me. for a few days now it hasn't been able to register my time checks, but now it's not giving me the option to align with different factions.
The pace of the text is someone annoying for fast readers. I don't want to skip the text, but not having to wait so long for the screen to change, or being able to manually move ahead would be great.
