Curiosity got the better of me, so I wanted a peek at the Jan 1 alt. Anyone guess what happens when you reset the clock back to today's date and time, but forget to change back the YEAR? D'oh!

Does involve loading a cloud save? I would try it to find out first hand, but now you got me running all scared Woz, scared!

No corruption involved. Just a stupid time shift error on my part. Just bad luck it was a double whammy because the devs have plugged in a couple of weeks of timed quests to bridge the holidays, so I accidentally activated and wiped two sets of them by going forward to December 22 2014 instead of back to Dec 22 2013.

So be careful with that year button fellow travellers. One sleepy mistake can have consequences.

Actually, does anyone know if there's a way to trigger the choose between cloud and device saves screen?

If you have 2 devices, you can log into your account on 2nd device, which will them load up the cloud save. Save the game and then log out of the 2nd device. Go back to your original device and it should ask cloud save or you device save.

The trigger seems to be when the cloud and local save are from different devices.

I only have one device. Mine triggered when I traveled backwards in time and came back to present. (I canNOT believe you people managed to convince me to time travel, and me without a T.A.R.D.I.S.! /sigh)

If you move your clock back to the past, launch the game still in airplane mode, then set clock back to normal, turn off wifi, then launch game.

When it connects to activate, it sees cloud save is newer (later timestamp), so it prompts.
