    wrong it's now 14:14 utc/gmt they started only 2 minutes behind

    See i just used that oft forgotten feature of windows, the clock.

    I set a second clock up set to PST which is the time zone cryptic is in.

    SO now when I see patch notes and it says 7 to 10 pst i just look at the clock.
    As a time traveller, Am I supposed to pack underwear or underwhen?

    Sorry but no. You are wrong. The time is now 16:18 UTC. Im looking at it right now. Maybe you should check the country you live lol. The last week, they started, instead of 14:00, at 15:00. And the week before that , they started at 16:00. So, i ask again, cryptic plz, can you just be honest when you say the timer??

    UTC is the same as GMT. It is currently 15:21 UTC/GMT.

    Ok, so some people say its 15, some others 16, anyways, i was right.. lol. They started at 16:00 , and they are supossed to start at 14:00 UTC because that is wat the notes say.

    The time is now 16:30 in the western zone. By the time the maintenance is done, it will be 18:30. In the notes they said the maintenance was from 14:00 UTC to 16:30. So, obviously cryptic is not very good at timers. But well, they lie us about everything all the time, so why not about the maintenance timer as well lol.

    GMT is the universal timer, so people on the western side should have 16:30, and people in the easter side should have 14:30??? im really lost lol. In any case, i was right. lol.

    I think.. I think i see through the pattern

    For 95% of the time in the year the patch happens each week on the same day to the same time (for example here at 16:00).

    Maybe, just maybe I could memorize this in my brain as a regular thing.

    Thats the thing. They do the maintenance sometimes 2 hours later, sometimes 1 hour later, or sometimes 1 hour before.. even if they always announce the same timer every week. So its impossible that they are doing the maintenance at the same time they say.. lol. The last week we had some users that noticed this, but since it is not important, i guess, unless someone cant play the entire day because of this, its not something really noticeable.

    I think you are the one who lives in a parallel universe. LOL. Europe = 16:42 right now. If you have a different timer, then, dude you should go to your right planet lol.

    I wasn't behind the decision to make the Shuttle weekend switch with the Officer weekend, but judging by a lot of the positive reception at the change, I can assume it was done in regards to preference.

    Also good morning ya'll!

    Well...harumph.
    You're low on reagents for an evil summoning? Got you covered.

    I will always do my best to inform you of when the servers will go down in my maintenance post, as well as providing the link to it such as this: http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?iso=20140403T07&p1=224%22

    I really am sorry about the confusion over the matter. Time zones, daylight savings time, and what not. Just remember that I will try to always update the day prior with the link and the time. :)
