Daylight Savings - Battleday Timer

All,

On Sunday 25th October, most of the worlds clocks changed to end Daylight Saving Time. American DST does not end until Sunday 1st of November, meaning that clocks don't match.

As such, the Battleday on 31st of October will be happening ONE HOUR LATER for those in America. The countdown clock is wrong (one hour early) this week. Usually we do things differently during the DST rollover but 21 don't so this is our compromise. To clarify, the battleday begins at:

UK: 1800
CENTRAL EUROPE: 1900
EASTERN EUROPE: 2000
US EAST: 1400

The following week we're back to normal :)


EDIT: The Halloween Battleday has been cancelled. There's an offweek and DST will be back to normal, so no worries :)

That's what the GC Wiki says, however in our campaign against 21 (who operate differently) the above was the agreed way forward.


It's moot anyway, as the next battleday is called off.
