Players!

There was a mistake in the rules:
Quote:
- Everyone has a choice of her/his vote once each Day
Well, naturally that's true , but the intention was to say:

- Everyone has a choice of retracting her/his vote once each Day.

I've corrected it now.

Just to make sure you know that there's a possibility of one retraction/day if you didn't know it already.

I'm confused about the deadline. 10 PM GMT should be 4 PM my time (CDT), but Day 1 started at 5 PM my time.

During Daylight savings time, you are at -5 GMT, not -6, as you normally are. So, 10PM GMT is 5 PM CDT. Nothing's wrong with your clock.

Just look near the bottom of the page, and it will tell you what GMT you're set on.

Hmm, I think my problem is that all this time I've been thinking GMT time and the time in London is the same thing. And, apparently, it's not.

So 5 PM my time it is. Okay. So I'll be voting about an hour early. Not that it matters to anyone but me.

Roa, that depends on the clock. The one on the wall has been stopped at 9 AM for a couple days now, but the computer clock seems to be correct.

It is during the winter but we have BST to make the most of the long evenings Just be grateful they didn't continue the double summertime thing... then it would be 2hrs out

Silmaril Greetings and salutations!

I am here to inform you that, due to some event in Kuopio, dancing spawn of ungoliant will not be able to participate in toDAY's discussion. She will, however, be back by the next DAY. I think.
