Perhaps Lodi's timer is stored directly in memory when a server spins up, instead of getting stored in the database. This means whenever the server goes down, the Lodi timer gets completely wiped. The default behavior would be to spawn him initially on server startup. This would make sense, as you'd want Lodi to be killed so he can start his timer again.

I am just guessing though.
