Actually with daylight savings time it is 9:40 or thats how I figure it anyway...........start time is 3:40 gmt which is -7 hours to mst time making it 8:40....but we are in daylight savings time which is mdt and that is -6 hours from gmt........Ill be logging in at 9:40.....If I have this figured right I wont be alone.....anybody else in mst got this figured....

Therefore Group 4 will sign in at Wed, 28 April - 10:40pmEST ... which is 8:40 MST

Forget about GMT for a moment ... this is the time posted at GN site

so is Ontario and we are 2 hours behind them ... does Ontario ( EST ) not use daylight savings time ?

Right so based on my calculations if everyone on daylight savings time logs in at 8:40 they will be an hour out with everythat isnt on daylight savings time.....alberta and ontario will be alone.

Just like military zulu time gmt is a standard and you subtract your time zones to come up with a launch time....this standardizes everyone around the world currently our time is GMT-6 not GMT-7.

If we are all in daylight savings time we will all log in together if we are not all in daylight savings time we wont.........8:40 and 10:40 are the correct launch times MST but your clock on the wall is an hour ahead of MST 9:40 and 11:40.

Is EST on daylight savings or not ?

Ok so what time is it 9:40 or 8:40 LOL

sbrown 04-28-2004 03:52 PM

Yes ontario is on daylight savings so thier local time is -4 hours from gmt.


I plan to just log into chat early and go when everyone else goes........

I think they forgot about DST on the Nemo site :rolleyes:

sbrown 04-28-2004 03:59 PM

I think your right....I posted a quick message in group 4 which you saw........but everybody thinks Im a time zone quack.....but seriously I believe if we go at 8:40 we will not be in sync with people that are out of the daylight savings zone.

So, like I said Ill log in an hour early to the nemo chat just in case.......


All times are GMT. The time now is 09:34 AM.
