Hi everybody, as you can see my nickname is Hgx, i came here because i like to play BF like it should be played. But... i have some doubts and i don't wanna bother people with PMs. Well...

1) What SBT means? Ex (SBT +7/+8) I know that means some kind of timezone + random amount of hours, but, it is really a time zone? Because i can't find which one.

2) Can I join the trainings without signing up?

Thanks.

SBT - Standard Battle Time. It's on the homepage just under the counter. 19:00 CET, 18:00 UK.
It's not a "time zone" more a specific time.

EDIT: See also WTF is Standard Battle Time aka SBT

Hey!
Judging by your name colour, You've been assigned to the army that im a part of: PRIDe
Anything we do during the week is completely optional, and if a sign up thread pops up then you can use that. If nothing pops up you can just show up ^^.

SBT is the time at which the battle on saturday usually starts (Standard Battle Time). The time is: 19:00 for CET.
You can also use the countdown timer on the frontpage to check what time it is. If a training/meeting is scheduled, for example, at SBT +2 it means that it starts 2 hours later than the saturday battle usually starts.

Do not worry at all about PM-ing people with your questions btw, 100% of the people here are more than willing to answer your questions. We were all new at some point, so feel free to ask anything you need to know ^^

So if you have any further questions, go ahead and post them here, or just send me a pm

Have a great time at GC!

You can call me H, "newguy" or as you want :P. Im from Argentina (SA) and my friends call me "Huge" (long story) but in the spanish way, something like this.

Hola, Hermano! :D

Since you're from Argentina we probably share the same timezone, so the SBT right now stands for 14:00 or 2pm. Hope to see you in the battleday!

I actually just came back from playing football with some Argentinians or should I say against them. Needless to say we won.
