    At 8pm, one hour before the start. I will make a post in the competitions forum. I will also be using a few shouts here and there in game.

    ((All in fun; no disrepect intended))

    I wonder if the competition will be moved an hour to 9pm Eastern Daylight Time. :rolleyes:

    Maybe I am giving too much credit with assuming janc87 can tell time. :p

    After consideration, I am going with the second option. Please disregard my ramblings. :D

    I am so confused by your post. It's scheduled to start at 9pm EST...where did I mess up?

    Currently most of the United States is on Daylight Saving Time (DST). Remember that you moved your clocks forward one hour? The East Coast reads their time as EDT until the fall, where they will go back an hour, back into Standard Time (EST). EDT does not equal EST. If you are telling time in EST, then you are probably an hour off.

    Google "Current time Boston" and you will see the time quoted in EDT.

    :)

    I mention this because I am currently in Arizona who does not change their time. I am 2 hours behind EST and 3 hours behind EDT. If you say 9pm EST, then I subtract 2 hours and think 7pm local time. But EDT is 3 hours, which would be 6pm local time for me.
