Time

[hotShot]

Hi!

 

I know doing this might drive you crasy, but .......

 

Can you please make the Software aware of local time.

 

hallway's reminders are much more helpful, if they are in my local time.

If a tourney starts in 3+ day it would be nice if i enter the tourney if it does not say 3 day 5 hour 20 minutes, but Friday 23:00 my local time.

 

If it where possible to set the timezone somewhere (you might even get it by a windows api call), so that everybody can see the events time and date in his/her local time.

 

Have a nice day

On the schedule page in the Lounge Club News I have put a link to a World Clock Meeting Planner - Just put the date / New York - if you want to use the EST time I give you / Your place

 

Scroll to the time listed and it will tell you your time

 

even easier it defaults to UTC / enter your place /

scroll to UTC time as listed in my schedule.

 

I LOVE the fact that the Tournament's software gives the time in days , hours, minutes

I only have to set the minutes to start time from my clock/my time :P and not have to worry about what time it was yesterday in New York and/or UTC time (NZ being up to a day ahead of the rest of world is a worry :-)

 

At least with the Tournaments I know that all any of the members have to do is add the days/hrs/mins to the time on their computer clock and they will KNOW what time it starts at their place (no daylight savings on/off to worry about either)

The problems of messing around with time zones is probably part of the reason for using a count-down clock for the start of tournament events.
