Time Zones at the FCon site

[Casimir]

I'm somewhat confused by what the time zone selection are showing on the FCon site. I live in the Central Time Zone, which is -6 hours from UTC during the summer. The FCon site is showing it as being -5 hours. Now granted I can simply set my time zone to Mountain Time to get the -6 hour offset, but I just wanted to know if I'm not seeing something right on the site, or if others have encountered this, etc. Obviously my main worry is missing a scheduled game due to an incorrect time setting.

Central is -5 UTC during the summer (daylight savings). Assuming you're in Central Daylight Time.

The FG Con website is showing the UTC offset of -5 which is correct for your selected timezone of US/Central.

If his location is correct (NE MS) then yes, he is in Central Daylight right now. He does *not* live in an area that does not apply daylight savings. And UTC-5 *is* correct.

Hmm... well then my math was off. How embarrassing. Yes I am in Central, and after double checking again we are -5 off UTC. Sorry for the trouble.

Better that you ask these things. We use an online database to pull all the regions, timezones, offsets, daylight savings start/finish dates fro and its not always right. We just realised last week that it was wrong for 3 Australian States....

Eh, who cares about the aussies.

[damned]

pfffft. i know where you live....

[Valarian]

Well, the state anyway. Would take a rather large death ray to take him out. The XT-20 Microwaver should suffice.

I guess I failed my bluff check...

Guess there were still issues with the timezone? 2pm Central Start time today (Saturday) for the Cthulhu Invictus game you signed up for Casimir. You can still join if you hurry...
