The timing of downtime is usually the same as GMT from what i have seen.
So far there seems to be some delay, or cryptic have got their times wrong.

    Due to Daylight saving, it's now an hour different.

    Went down at 15:00 and should be back around 17:30 uk time

    Same here.
    STO is about my Liberated Borg Federation Captain with his Breen 1st Officer, Jem'Hadar Tactical Officer, Liberated Borg Engineering Officer, Android Ops Officer, Photonic Science Officer, Gorn Science Officer, and Reman Medical Officer jumping into their Jem'Hadar Carrier and flying off to do missions for the new Romulan Empire. But for some players allowing a T5 Connie to be used breaks the canon in the game.

    These threads should be titled "I thought the game would be back up when there is really an hour left cause I don't know how to read the time."

    Well, technically, Cryptic's converted time is inaccurate, so I do see where these folks are coming from.

    No it's not, for crying out loud, UTC (GMT+/- 0) never changes & basically ignores "Dayl

    Okay, maybe I'm wrong then, but the last time I looked, the differential between the two times posted was eight hours

    Yes you are ... it's 16:42 UTC (for the 3rd time) and the Server is back up for 12+min

    Downtime PST : 7:00 - 9:30
    Downtime UTC : 14:00 - 16:30

    q.e.d. ... do the math ...
