Here it is...WW XXXIII deadline time, around the world!

I guess England's on summer time now, so actually it's not 7pm GMT...it's 7 pm BST. Which is:

1 pm Central.
2 pm on the East coast.
8 pm in Germany.
9 pm in Finland.
and 4 am in Australia (sorry, Sixth...)

Will that work for everybody?

It's really, really very nice, says Germany... this means I will be probably always already at home at the DL and also still well awake to take care what's going on...

Question: When exactly are we starting, and with which phase (I suppose Night?), and also, are we waiting for another players, or is this number final?

I see. I may be accused of favoritism...

Ah...yes. We wil start DAY one at 7pm BST on Monday.
I will accept new players until ...let's see...7pm BST on Sunday, but if this is all we get, I'll still go ahead with the game as scheduled.

But it is actually 7 BST...summer time, not GMT. So it's 9 in Finland...does that work OK?

Thumbs up

Both are fine to me and, probably, the Finns. Just had some confusion as both GMT and BST arose there...

1 pm... That's fine for me Monday through Friday. Don't expect me to be too active Saturday and Sunday, though, as that's Graduation.

Hehe...if I were you Sixth, I'd just stay up for the deadline. That's the kind of person I am...a late nighter. In fact, 4am would be a great deadline for me.

But then again, you're currently in school, aren't you, so I guess that probably wouldn't work out so well...

Just noting that I'll be away most of Day1. Sleep, school, confirmation courses. ( :rooleyes: ) Might have an hour but don't expect too much spammage from me.

I am just letting you know that I have gotten ill and that combined with the fact that I only got 4 hours of sleep due to a dentist appointment, means that I really need a nap now if I am to get through work tonight.

Normally I would call in sick, but I have some really important stuff to do the next two days, actually mostly tomorrow. . . .still I would prefer not call in sick, show up the next day and then maybe call in sick the next day, it would seem very weird.

The result is that I will now go take a nap and I don't know when I will be back, I shall make sure as a minimum to drop in before deadline and cast a vote.
