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

Wont our clock on the wall (if we are in alberta) say 9:40 though..........since we are in daylight savings.....

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

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:

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.......

I PM'd srit1 so will wait till he replies

what this is crazy I am going nuts already not being able to log in right now and now you are telling me that I have to wait till 9:40!! :bad-word:

Well I am loging in at 8:40PM Alberta time as that is what I have figured it out to me.

Now to make this easier next time everyone go out and get swatch beats!

edit: to fix URL

OK you guys/gals ... the GMT was wrong and we are going by the times posted ( dst taken into consideration )


10:40 EST
8:40 MST
7:40 PST

Thanks =) I will make sure I am primed and ready!!!!!!!!!!!!! See you all on there this evening =)

Beth

I just checked the nemo site and they changed the gmt down to 2:40 which now makes sense.....so local (alberta) log in is around 8:40 if your in this group.

Sorry for the confusion just wanted to make sure we were all on the same page.................

Says I am in there.. but I don't see anything..

Did you unblock popups?

I am not even sure how it is blocked.. I have WinME on right now..

never mind I got it.. ugh.. dumb me :confused: :evil:

good luck to all, hope it works out, no one else in my star yet.

I got ghbell, Beth and vinsane in my system ... all Nemos :mrgreen:

OMG - I am a retard, I was over getting my skimmer modded, and I picked my race backwards =( I am going to have to restart.

SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO crappy.

Beth

picked your race backwards? that REALLY sucks.

Especially cuz you were in a good system!

:(

I almost did the same..

Say it aint so :frown: ... that sucks ... hopefully you restart close to some Nemos

Cheers

So how did everyone else make out as far as grid locations / Nemos in your system etc ?

I made out well.....3 of us in the system...

me as well. I am in a system with 3 nemos and a player who has never logged in.

I have a guy that finished 6th last round, we already have a NAP :P and one unknown already =)

I am hoping that I can jump on it quickly, but with blade82 in the system I think I will be slow growing.

Beth

Excellent Beth ... just work out the details with blade as to which planets you both want ... also he will prolly be interested in a friendly siege ?

yah that psycory guy is one of ghbells students so we can't wack him yet but if he doesn't check in then we can :mrgreen: he has been warned

I'll send my ships as soon as I can sign in Lost mind I just can't get into the fleet screen and I'll send 2 right off the bat just to make sure so bump your Sbase up to 3 to last.

Will do. Altho I hear the game is paused. strange

Game is back up ! :biggrin:

I am sucking this round, I am going backwards in the standings.. :evil:

Have you got a Nemo in your system ? ... can you setup a friendly siege ? ... what race attributes did you take ?

HOLY MOLY!

I am ranked 122 o_O

Im sure that will change :P

I do have another nemo.. but unfortunately with all that server trouble I only just recent go to send my fleet.. Here is my Race stats.. This was the first time of course I have used the whole race thing.. so I was not possitive on what I should do.. This is what I ended up with.

+15% growth.
-7% culture.
-16% speed.
+15% attack

There is no wrong selection per se ... but ... population gives you growth plus science so maybe add more farms and also make sure that social does not drop so low that population stops growing ... it is hard to pick because you have to give something up and only speed is the obvious one that you can at least launch earlier to work around at the beginning and then focus on with science later. Once you get your player level/SU up you can focus on cybernets to bring your culture back online ... TA's are going to be expensive this round ( A$20,000 ) so we better make sure we select partners carefully but as we know they are awesome !
