Now it seems to be 19 minutes off the track.

So there is something wrong there, moving forwards and backwards, definitively...

Can something be done to it?

The clock here is off by roughly 20 minutes....I thought it was my computer clock that was wrong and there was no rush to get ready for work. Then I checked my cell phone and I realized there was a rush!

Ah, I thought there was something strange going on last night when I checked Who's Online and noticed no member had been active for the last half hour.

The BD clock reads 4:49pm, when in fact it is 5:12.

Mine is now off by 22 minutes. There's something wrong in the fabric of the space-time continuum, I tell you!

*clicks refresh to see how far off the clock is now*

Okay, now it's 46 minutes.

What's happening?!?

Now that you mention it... the clock here seems to be 52 minutes off the mark. I wouldn't mention it, but someone else had had the same difference, so it's quite interesting. Perhaps the "main" clock, from where the BD calculates the time for the time-stamps is having some problems? I'm guessing that'd have nothing to do with the 'downs itself but rather some Internet glitch.

Edit: As I posted this, the difference between the actual time and the BD clock was reduced to 10 minutes. Odd, huh?

Probably the server where the forum resides has a problem with its clock. I'll send tech support a note if the problem persists.

*EDIT* Shows as 15 minutes early for me. Weird.
