Title: Forum timezone.
Post by Janzert on Sep 11th, 2005, 5:29pm
Unless the new default forum time zone is meant to be Hong Kong, I'm guessing the forum time is off by 12 hours. ;)

This seems to have happened after the server problems. Of course people can still set their own local time by editing their profile.

I concur my local time is set 12 hours in the future. No big deal but it takes some getting used to.  :)

I reset the time zone offset for the forum. Im not sure how it got so off track. The times are looking more appropriate now (at least for me).

Is it just me or the date is now 1 day ahead?

Hmm, seems fine here. Maybe check the time offset in your forum profile?

Hogwarts is also one day ahead.  I thought Dumbledore destroyed all the time travel artifacts.  Omar, you should turn yours in.

Heh, must have been half asleep last night when I posted. As you can see from my last post, contrary to what I said in it. The forum is showing one day forward for me.

Also I see the game room is 12 hours ahead.

Thanks for pointing that out, since thus far I was the only one noticing it I thought that maybe it was with my particular local time that there was a problem. Hey guys, you need to signal those things if you wanna help Omar to get the room back to normal.  :)

Looks like gameroom time is now correct, but forum time is off by 12 hours.

I concur, I hope they're not linked together, which seems to be the case since they lost both 12 hours at the same time, at least as far as I can tell.

I think the clock on the arimaa.com server was off when we first noticed the time offset. Instead of fixing the servers clock I ended up compensating for it in the forum settings. But now that the time on the server is right the form setting is wrong.

I've just changed the forum settings so it should be correct again.
