Since sgs are always scheduled at 3pm EST, can't you just announce when they are changing their clocks?
I mean, for clarity's sake. I know when my country changes its clocks, and I can adjust when I get up for sg to account for that. The only other thing that affects my attendance time is when America changes.
I assume that other players, in Europe etc, are equally aware of changes in local time and can adjust just as easily as I can. Basically, any announcements other than when America changes just serve to confuse me.
tl;dr: Riddle me this - are Americans changing their clocks this weekend? Cause that's all I give a $#@! about.
Here comes the DST waltzer

Usually though, "skill" is used to covertly mean "match the game exactly to my level of competence." Anyone who is at all worse than me should fail utterly (and humorously!) and anyone better is clearly too caught up in the game and their opinions shouldn't count.
Yeah, my clocks went back an hour, did EST?
If no, then I need to be an hour early
If no, then I need to be an hour early
I decided to relive the days gone by in my new blog.

Remember, what I say is IMO always. If I say that something sucks, it actually means "I think it sucks" OK?

I'm sorry, give me a knock next time. And no, US hasn't changed yet.juckto wrote:QUOTE (juckto @ Oct 26 2008, 10:11 AM) I was going to let it slide, but you had to go and say it. You had to include us.
NZ started the waltz a month ago. We've been out on the dance floor by our lonesome ownsome, wondering why everyone else is shy.

The thing is, that I know that SGs are at 8pm my time except for when they aren't because the switchovers happen at different times. I find bps post very very helpful, if only to confirm the time for me.juckto wrote:QUOTE (juckto @ Oct 26 2008, 09:39 AM) Since sgs are always scheduled at 3pm EST, can't you just announce when they are changing their clocks?

pfft. Beats having sgs at 9am on a Monday morning. That kinda renders the whole "decides to turn up" moot.

Turn up to work you mean, of course
