Account Suspension

[Idolatrous]

I got an e-mail yesterday about my account being suspended for 24 hours. I was playing the game casually until I automatically got logged off at 7:20PM EST / 4:20PM PST. Today I tried to log on again at the same time I was forced off the game and my account is still suspended.
When they say 24 hours do they actually mean the next day? I am still confused on this because it has still, technically, been 24 hours.

"You will immediately lose access to the service account for the duration of the suspension. However, the actual suspension countdown starts at 0:00 on the next day of the suspension being issued." - Okay, but why was I kicked off at such an odd time? BTW, this is a direct quote from the e-mail they sent me.
