Title: Upcoming Downtime
Post by: Spanky on Monday, October 07, 2013, 23:13:40 PM
Just a heads up to our loyal players, the hoster that runs Assist is having maintenance done and the services will be down between 10pm and 6am on the 9th of October.

I'm not sure what timezone this is, perhaps ELiZ or BiG Sergio could clue us in?

The server is not located (some where in Europe) in the same country that Sapnky lives (USA), thus he doesn't know.

I think it's still in the UK but I could be wrong. Sergio bought it and ELiZ works on it. One of them is bound to know.

CEST = gmt + 1?

Post by: [SWISS]Merlin on Wednesday, October 09, 2013, 07:00:54 AM
other way to say. London is one hour behind Central Europe Summer Time.
that means we are one hour in front of London. so there time 22.00 is our time 23.00.
so easy it is.

or
UTC = grennwich mean time = London. Paris = UTC+1 :)
all clear now :D

Not exactly. From wikipedia: "For most purposes, UTC is synonymous with GMT, but GMT is no longer precisely defined by the scientific community.".
