They're mostly the same thing, so I guess I'm right until Daylight Savings kicks in.

Thursday. Saturday will be really troublesome for me. As in impossible.

EDIT: do we log on first on Ventrilo? Me being very unsure on whether I do or don't get this maptool business would be very comfortable having some contact through a medium that doesn't look like arcane magic.

Alright. Then I suggest we all report in on the discussion topic once we get ready, about 30 minutes before time.

Yes, I'm paranoid, but some paranoia is required when organising stuff like this.

In other news, does anyone have problems with me making a token out of This image? you know, for thematic reasons or something?

Nope! Go ahead. After all, I used one from the sequel.

Wait, hold on... Thursday at 11 AM... -7 hours would be 4 AM?! What?!

If it's 11 PM, I'll just have to JUMP on, because I don't get home until then.

i have UTC -7. that means i take my time and minus 7 from it to get the UTC time. supposing we start at 11am UTC time, thats 6 PM for me.

edit: i wanted to do it in between your time zones and everyone elses. you said 10am and someone else said noon, so i just took the average.

That... seems to be backwards.

6 PM is 11 hours after 11 AM.

That means that I, at +1, needs to be checked in at 10, right? Very well, no problems there.

What is a problem, however, is that it is currently 4:30 AM UTC, which means that I should have been in bed for 5 hours. G'night, y'all.

Right now, where I am, it is 7:37 PM on Tuesday, January 25, 2010.

Reykjavik, Iceland always uses UTC. There, it is 2:37 AM on Wednesday, January 26, 2010.

Or, just do this:

Go here.

Find the city on the list that is closest to you and in the same time zone.

Look below the list for UTC, then try to find out what your UTC-7 time is from that.

Do they match?

awestriker, you have the same time zone as me. you're also -7.

just subtract 7 hours from your time. if its 7:30 pm now, its 12:30 pm UTC.

edit: or maybe I am doing it backwards? let me look this up. i thought i had it figured out.

well were still going by UTC time either way.

so the equivalent time is instead 1am, rather than 11am.

Next question: Is it at all fair to force Kayeka to get up at 2AM for this?

hmm i see your point.

let me think about this.

lets see, its 7:00 now, and 2am utc... thats 3am for her... a game lasts at least 4 hours... so that running 3 to 7am. thats bad.

ok so... rewind the clock 7 hours. i think there are 3 of us with -7 utc... that means we'd start at noon and run to 4pm. for her, she would start at... 8pm? and run to midnight. how does that sound?

OK so timezones are: Dynamod: -7 Vorpy: -7 Awestriker: -7 Chrisis Craziest: -7 Diamonnes: -5 Kayeka:+1

so the -7 people start at noon, dia starts at 2pm, and Kayeka starts at 8pm. sound good?

Works fine on Saturday, on Thursdays I have a 3 pm class and a morning shift about half the time. No shift this week, but I'd have to leave early if we do it tomorrow.

Do or do not, there is no try.

That's not going to work for me, either, because I have work actually not work, I have a day off that is full of other commitments.

Commitments which are despite appearances, not negotiable.
