Forgive my American ignorance, but I thought GMT was central standard time. :blush:

hey, me too! (though I somehow got noon in the time converter)

But if Virgil is in NY and it's 8pm for him, I guess it's 5pm for us.

I think it's 8 PM my time. Papaya thinks it's 7 PM central, so that jives with me. So west coast is 5 PM. See you then. ;) I can tell everyone I've got a date with hundreds of women saturday night. :D

Time zones are so confusing, especially with dumb daylight savings. I'll try for 8pm. We're doing it again on Sunday, right? I think I might be home on Sunday. Probably not on Saturday, but maybe.

How can you people not know when GMT is?

Count me in - and I've gone around all the forums I participate in and changed my sig to get people here, a convenient 1pm Sunday for me.

Not the Apocalypse, 00:00 GMT 15 March 2009.

Andave,

I think it should be 5 pm on Friday for you (our first attempt, at least).

Our first attempt is on Friday for you Virgil (8 pm).

Just to clear things a little more for our first attempt:

If you are east of London, it will be on Saturday (probably early morning).

If you are west of London, it will be on Friday evening (or late afternoon).

If you are unsure about the time, please post your city and country here and we will sort it out :)

This sounds fun (like an online party), but doesn't this seem like cheating? It makes me wonder if the previous record was set this way.

You are east arthur, think about a standard map americas one side Japan ( I just know Im worng arent I australia is further east isnt it?*sigh* ) the other. then write WE across england . W is west E is east. you are in the east because you are moviung towards aisa from london as opposed to towards the americas from London.

No actually I do have it on my blackberry. But I don't post with it. Kind of difficult with the small screen and keyboard.

OK. I have to admit that I am a tiny bit confused by this, but I think I have it. :) I won't be around on Friday. I guess I will make it for Saturday evening. I have a long day ahead of me that day, and I wasn't planning on going back out after I got home that day. So, Saturday at 7:00 PM. I can do that. :)
