I'm having a problem. Earlier today I waited the 300 seconds and requested coins as usual. But the coins I had still showed up as “0.0” and it told me “There are no coins available!” Just now I tried again, and it tells me I've hit the limit for my IP even though I haven't even gotten any coins in well over 12 hours.

Edit: And now the 12-hour timer seems to have reset again. What's going on? The only time it should reset is when I actually get coins…

I've had that happen too but I thought it got fixed because it hasn't happened in a while for me...
perhaps because I don't usually wait the whole five minutes anymore?

I think what seems to be happening is that the 12-hour count restarts every time a request for coins is attempted, whether it actually succeeds or not. The code should be changed so that the restart only occurs on success.
