Gibsonm Posted October 22, 2016 Share Posted October 22, 2016 So what does "2100 CST" (as per Teamspeak) convert to in terms of GMT / UTC? Â I presume you've moved to /come off some sort of Summer Time since I'm in the lobby "now" and no one else is here. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mpow66m Posted October 22, 2016 Share Posted October 22, 2016 http://www.timebie.com/timezone/utccst.php  does that help? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gibsonm Posted October 22, 2016 Share Posted October 22, 2016 (edited) Sort of, but my preference would be that the time be published in GMT / UTC to begin with, so others can just do a one step conversion. Â As it is, its CST to GMT, then GMT to where people live. Â Its just another hurdle for people wishing to join this to have to negotiate. Â Anyway I've written it down now so it should be OK for another 6 months. Edited October 22, 2016 by Gibsonm 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lt DeFault Posted October 22, 2016 Share Posted October 22, 2016 Actually... Â The "Online Play" page is technically wrong. TGIF is currently being played at 2100 CDT (Central Daylight Time). The corresponding GMT should be 0200. The U.S. will remain on "daylight saving time" until 0200 (local time) Sunday, November 6th. DST in the U.S. always begins on the second Sunday in March and ends on the first Sunday in November. After Nov. 6th, TGIF will be played at 2100 CST, which will correspond to 0300 GMT. Â Also, the use of "GMT" has been superseded by "UTC" (Coordinated Universal Time). Although, for applications where sub-second accuracy is not important, the two can be considered equivalent. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â I think that was my issue, with numerous countries going onto / coming off their respective "Summer time". Â So why not change it to 0200 GMT and then in November change it to the new GMT equivalent (+/- 1 hour). Â e.g.: Something like this: Â http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?iso=20161029T0200 Â 3 hours ago, Lt DeFault said: Also, the use of "GMT" has been superseded by "UTC" (Coordinated Universal Time). Â So what's the difference - apart from I suspect some issue with Britain providing the time standard? Â Is it along similar lines to "B.C." being swapped out for "B.C.E." in the more popularist publications?

Â Â UTC is a more precisely defined time standard and is based on International Atomic Time, but with leap seconds added to keep it within 1 second of GMT. Read up on Universal Time if you're interested. Edited October 23, 2016 by Rotareneg 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please have a go at Google.com .  A simple Search of "what is  2100 CST  in UTC ?" gives you the following result  :  UTC / Z CST CDT 0300 UTC 2100 (9 p.m.) CST 2200 (10 p.m.) CDT 0400 UTC 2200 (10 p.m.) CST 2300 (11 p.m.) CDT 0500 UTC 2300 (11 p.m.) CST 0000 (midnight) CDT 0600 UTC 0000 (midnight) CST 0100 (1 a.m.) CDT  Hope i could help.  With Regards Ash  0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gibsonm Posted October 28, 2016 Share Posted October 28, 2016 Yes but then I need to convert it again to "my" time. Â What I'm suggesting is to use the "global standard" and then everyone knows what is going on. Â Not to worry though as I see its another "OMU" mission. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
