Right, you ideally only add ammonia once in any given 24 hour period and then only if ammonia dropped to zero ppm within the last 24 hours and you only add on your "add-hour," the same time of day each day. But that's an "optimization." Not doing it like that once like you are describing won't mess things up.
12-hour testing is totally up to you. Some do it for periods earlier in the fishless cycle just out of curiosity. Its really -after- the nitrite spike, in what I often refer to as the third phase of fishless cycling that it works better to test at both 12 and 24 hour marks.
