diana_eva Posted October 15, 2015 Report Share Posted October 15, 2015 Please apply here if you'd like to play vs JEC's team on Saturday at 2PM NY Time (8PM Central European Time). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mgoetze Posted October 15, 2015 Report Share Posted October 15, 2015 The 31st of October is the first one where CET applies. Still two more on CEST. Note that 31st of October will still be EDT, thus the time difference will be 5 hours rather than 6. You really should get your time zones cleaned up by then or there will be an accident.

I don't get the persistence in explaining that it should be CEST and not CET, what's the big deal. I'm spelling out always that it's 8PM Central European Time and that was good enough until now, so that no European has missed the match by one hour. I know there's a two weeks difference where times will be all messed up betw US/Europe, but hopefully we'll manage to get it right :) That said, wanna play on Sat?

As for the "big deal", it just annoys me to see wrong times. 8PM CET is 9PM CEST, OK most people don't understand that but that's not really a good reason to give them the wrong time, especially when you could just put in an extra S. ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to http://time.is/CET it is the same if I understand correctly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to http://time.is/CET it is the same if I understand correctly.So some random website I never heard of before claims CET is UTC+2. Wikipedia claims CET is UTC+1. Hm. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Central_European_Time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gszes Posted October 16, 2015 Report Share Posted October 16, 2015 And now you know why we crashed a multi billion dollar space mission craft when US scientists failed to consider the difference btn british (the authors of the manual) and US BTUS:)))) I will be there just in case but just back from 11 day vacation (no computer) so rusty at best.

diana_eva Posted October 17, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 17, 2015 Unfortunately I've got a ton of work to do today, I don't have time to look for 3 more people so I told susi to start looking for a team. Sorry, next week we'll try again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
