Battle of Frankfurt : Realism Event

Post by deffield »

May 10 2pm CST / 8pm GMT

http://forums.battlegroundeurope.com/sh ... p?t=217437

Who's going? I know admiral1 is, and I plan to multicrew with him if possible.

I think it's great the way that these events are scheduled so both euro and US players can participate.

PS: Does it mean British summer time, or real GMT. IE is it 2000 hours or 1900 hours for me?

I know Jammy's post says 2PM Central time, but that's actually 7PM GMT, not 8PM GMT.

I guess the safe thing to do would be to show up at 2PM Central time, (3PM Eastern time, 7 PM GMT, 8PM UK Summer) and that way you won't be late, but if it is really at 8 GMT will be waiting around an hour.

:?

He just comfirmed that it's definatly 2pm Rat time, which is Central time, therefore it's 8pm for us British folks. Do you euros take your time as Brit + 1 or true GMT + 1? IE Do you take DST at the same time as us?

Norway is
- winter = GMT+1
- summer = GMT+2

(I guess) England is;
- winter = GMT
- summer = GMT+1

So we are always one hour ahead...
