Well for the first time in all my time in GW did i have a plan on when i ppt and so on.

And since i never had that did i today find out that where the server is do they not change to winter time same time as they do where i live.

So yes set the clock 1 hour back. What i didn't know was the server did not so when i logged in on time to renew my ppt i see that it had ended and i was farmed fair and squar.

DAMN i hate this lol couldn't someone have told me huh?

North Americans turn their clocks back next weekend.

You people across the pond should have already learned by now that the earth revolves around us, and moves to our every beck and call. (earths time included)

Your ignorance amuses
:razz:

For those ignorant Americans, it depends on the country whether their clock takes summer/winter time in consideration or not, each country decides that for themselves. :razz:
But ya I agree, it sucks when it changes. I have always been late for our handball matches due to that :oops: Although looking at a grander scale it is good.

careful who you call ignorant

European countries change their clocks back the last Sunday in October

Since you forgot, i think i can infer that you live in a Euro country, right?

eh hem....

i think game time never changes anyway with daylight savings (don't go forward in summer don't go back in winter) guess we'll find out next weekend

and you really shouldn't count on getting online dead on the turn you drop always log on a few hours before if you have time and bank


Europeans are the future so don't diss it we now before you :smt047

As per my personal understanding of Admin Jason's promise:


That if the game / server goes offline for three consecutive hours,
we are guaranteed a PPT, and also...

That there won't be any PPT unless the game is having issues for at least three hours...


I do my darnedest to log in to my account at least three hours before the end of any and all PPTs...


but thank you, Nimras, for the reminder...

Next week, I'll make it four to five hours. :smt115

The game clock is set to the server time of the West Coast of the US/Canada which atm is PDT (Pacific Daylight Time) and next weekend it will also change back to PST (Pacific Standard Time) as the server clock will change by an hour

Hard to see I was using your own words back at ya, and I was of course being totally serious, without a pinch of sarcasm :razz:
Yes I live in one of the European countries where we do change time.

And even though we changed it an hour back we're still in the future since you're still a few hours behind us :smt047
