Ross Carlson Posted January 12, 2010 at 05:43 AM Posted January 12, 2010 at 05:43 AM Is the event Friday evening or Saturday evening? (Just want to make sure since Feb 6 at 0000Z puts the event on Friday evening.) Edit: The email I got after I registered clears it up. It says my expected arrival time is Feb 7 at 02:30 GMT, so the event must be on Saturday evening.

Ross Carlson Posted January 12, 2010 at 05:01 PM Author Posted January 12, 2010 at 05:01 PM We in the east coast always seem to have this problem, which is why we always put a local time zone in as well. Putting the local time zone is half the battle ... putting the local date is the other half.

Nicholas Taylor 1104922 Posted February 4, 2010 at 08:09 PM Posted February 4, 2010 at 08:09 PM We in the east coast always seem to have this problem, which is why we always put a local time zone in as well. The event is Saturday, February 6th, from 7PM Eastern to 11PM Eastern. Converted to Zulu, its February 7th, from 0000Z to 0400Z. ... February 6th, from 0000Z to 0400Z (7PM Eastern to 11PM Eastern) ... And yes, we did just break the $1000 dollar mark on our donated prizes, so be sure to register today! Ok, I'm confused. The initial posting says February 6th 0000Z-0400Z which is a Friday night from 7-11 EST. But the graphic says it's really February 6th 7-12PM EST which is February 7th 0000Z-0500Z. Could you please clarify so I don't miss out on this great event? Nicholas Taylor vZAU INS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The first few replies in this thread clear it up. The event is Saturday evening 7 to 11 PM eastern. (The graphic is correct, the text is wrong/misleading.)
