Hi guys

Did Europes clocks go forward an hour for DST?

In the UK we switched from GMT to BST (GMT+1) on sunday.

I am looking for clarification of the mission start time tonight please.

So the mission launch time is still the same time for everyone?

How abouts someone tell us the start time in UTC time?

Right now in the UK we are on BST (GMT+1) and I believe that in Europe you are on CEST (GMT+2)

Ok, but I'll come check on server one hour early just to be sure :)

Good job Gross. That's the way to state it. All times should be stated as gmt as a standard. That way there is no confusion. Everyone can figure out for themselves what time zone they are in.

Gross states start at 1930 GMT. 1930+3= 2230 Finnish time. Boy is that late!

Yeah, we have been a bit cranky when the mission start time has slipped ;) .. The new auto-start thingie is great.
